Abstract

Polyaniline (PAni) doped with perchloric acid was successfully synthesized. It was mixed with different concentrations of Polyvinyl Acetate (PVA). A simplified method using handsheet rolling was done producing thin films similar to calendering process. Electrical conductivities, thickness and surface structure of the different PAni­-Polyvinyl Acetate ratio were compared. Results show that there is a positive correlation between concentration and conductivity, however considering the film quality, conductivity and film preparation, the 50% preparation ratio is recommended.
