Abstract
- Polyaniline nanorods, nanoplates and urchin-like structures have been synthesized successfully by the template-free method of aniline and peroxo–polytungstic acid using ammonium persulphate as the oxidant in aqueous solution. The peroxo–polytungstic acid concentration and reaction temperature play important role in the formation process of polyaniline nanostructures. As the precursor concentration increased to 0.29mol/L, nanorods and urchin structures were obtained. With the decrease of temperature, the amount of PANI nanoplates with radially aligned dendritic surface structures will increase. The radially aligned dendritic surface is probably due to the molecular structures of the dopant, the linear nature of PANI chains and the second nucleation formation.
