文摘

4-Chloroaniline (4ClAni) in the presence of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles were prepared by chemical oxidative polymerization in hydrochloric acid solution using Ammonium persulfate as oxidant. The effects of amount of ZnO nanoparticles (1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3 g, respectively) on the properties of products were investigated. The obtained nanocomposites was characterized using XRD, IR, UV–visible, and XPS which confirmed the incorporation of the nanoparticle ZnO in the P(4ClAni) matrix and the maximum interaction occurs for 2 g ZnO loading. The TGA analysis was used to confirm the thermal stability and number of water molecules in each nanocomposites chain unit. Although the incorporation of ZnO nanoparticles reduces the electric conductivity of the P(4ClAni), the resulting nanocomposites still keep high conductivities, ranging between 2.19 × 10−2 and 5.92 × 10−4 S cm−1. Good electrochemical response has been observed for samples of amounts ZnO less than 2 g; the observed redox processes indicate that the polymerization on ZnO nanoparticles produces electroactive polymers. The P(4ClAni) layer adhered well to the ZnO nanoparticles and can be used as practical applications.
