Abstract Polyaniline (PANI) and molybdenum disulphide (MoS2
) were used to prepare nanocomposites
by in-situ oxidative polymerization of acidified aniline in presence of dispersed MoS2 in the
reaction mixture. Electron Microscopy (SEM & TEM), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR)
spectroscopy, Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used
to characterize these nanocomposites. SEM micrographs showed that PANI is present on the
layers of MoS2
which were exfoliated during the preparation and the presence of MoS2
is also
confirmed by XRD peaks. The nanocomposites were studied for their electrical conductivity
and stability of electrical conductivity in terms of d.c. electrical conductivity retention.… More >
