The Reduction of Silver Ions with Polyaniline: The Effect of the Type of Polyaniline and the MoleRatio of the Reagents

Abstract

Granular as well as nanotubular forms of polyaniline were used for the polyaniline-silver composites preparation. Electrical conductivity ranges from 9.10-4 up to 33 S/cm with silver content increase up to 10.6wt%.

Composites based on oligoanilines are non-conducting even at 13.4 wt% of silver.
