Preparation and Thermoelectric Properties of Polyaniline Doped with Protonic Acids

Year: 2013

Type: article

Abstract: Hydrochloric acid doped polyaniline and camphor sulfonic acid doped polyaniline were prepared by oxidative chemical polymerization and grinding, respectively. The structures of polyaniline samples were measured by Fourier transform infared spectroscopy. The Seebeck coefficient and electrical conductivity of the composites were investigated as protonic acid content in the temperature range from room temperature to 380K. The highest electrical conductivity of the 1M hydrochloric acid doped polyaniline reaches 5.57×102S/m at 320K, and the mass ratio of 1:1 camphor sulfonic acid doped polyaniline reaches 5.97×102S/m at 380K. This work suggests that a new method improves the thermoelectric properties of conducting polymers.
