Abstract

The poly(3-chloroaniline), poly(3-chloroaniline)-blend-polyethyleneglycol and poly(3-chloroaniline)-blend-poly(vinyl alcohol) were prepared by in situ oxidative polymerization technique using ammonium per sulphate as oxidizing agent and HCl as dopant. The polymer and its blends were characterized by FT-IR, UV-visible spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and electrical conductivity. The synthesized polymer and its blends show the presence of benzenoid structure, quinonoid structure and the formation of the charged species (Q=N+ H-B or B-N+ H-B). Absorption band appear in the range 450-550 nm in polyaniline, whereas in the poly(3-chloroaniline) and its blends it is shifted to lower wave length because of the electronic effect which has reduced the amount of delocalization there by increasing the energy gap. The complex impedance of the polymer and its blends were measured by using four point probe method. The electrical conductivities of poly(3-chloroaniline), poly(3-chloroaniline)-blend-polyethyleneglycol and poly(3-chloroaniline)-blend-poly(vinyl alcohol) were 1.37 × 10-11 S cm-1, 3.67 × 10-11 S cm-1 and 2.64 × 10-9 S cm-1 respectively. The blends synthesized were of semiconducting nature and poly(3-chloroaniline)-blend-poly(vinyl alcohol) has higher conductivity than poly(3-chloroaniline) and poly(3-chloroaniline)-blend-polyethyleneglycol.
