Study on the infrared property of polyaniline /multi-wall carbon nanotube composite

Study of conductive polymers has received much attention these years and polyaniline (PANI) has been regard as one of the most important conducting polymers due to its outstanding conductivity, lower price of raw material, facile synthesis and environment stability. Carbon nanotube (CNT) possesses better mechanical, electrical, magnetic, optical and thermal properties than other materials have and it has been used a suitable base material for the preparation of nanocomposite to improve the properties of all above. Many reports have focused on synthesis methods, morphology, covalent bond mechanism between PANI and CNT and conductivity of composite of polyaniline and carbon nanotube.
