PRODUCTION OF POLYANILINE COMPOSITE CONTAINING Fe2O3 AND CoO WITH NANOMETER SIZE USING HYDROXYPROPYLCELLULOSE AS A SURFACTANT

Abstract

In this study, composite of polyaniline containing Fe2O3 and CoO with nanometer size was synthesized by a chemical method using hydroxyl-propylcellulose as a surfactant. The characteristics of products such as morphology and conductivity were studied. The results indicate that, the morphology and conductivity of product are dependent on the surfactant, the type and concentration of metallic oxide.
