An optimized synthetic route for the preparation of water-soluble nanomagnetic conducting polyaniline with high processability

摘要

The synthesis of water soluble nanomagnetic conducting polyaniline with an average particle size of 8nm ± 1nm is presented. The particle growth morphology during reaction kinetics was controlled by using polyelectrolyte mediated dual oxidant-dopant system. The synthesis was carried out in a single reactor and the entire synthetic approach follows the principles of green chemistry. Dual oxidant-dopant system offers a solvent less chemical route for the synthesis of nanomagnetic polyaniline with maximum yield production.
