Abstract

Polyaniline coated conducting fabrics (woven textile material) have been obtained by “in situ” polymerization of aniline in one step reaction without redoping. Different aniline: oxidant: HCl molar ratio were used and the best results of surface electrical resistivity were obtained when molar ratios were 2.2:1:3 and 1:1:3. The powders obtained after removing the material from reactor and filtering the reaction product were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Coated Nylon 6,6 and cotton fabrics were characterized by infrared spectroscopy with ATR device, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electrical resistivity measurements and diameter measurements..
