The gas sensing ability of electrochemically prepared pure polyaniline and polyaniline-poly(bisphenol-A carbonate) films is investigated. The responses of the composite films to several vapours are more well defined and reproducible compared to the pure conducting polymer. The changes in resistance as determined via the two-probe technique are well defined down to a level of 0.025% vol./vol. ammonia. The possible reason for such a difference is discussed. The structure of the composite is examined through pyrolysis FT-IR studies.

CONDUCTING POLYMERS OF ANILINE .1. ELECTROCHEMICAL SYNTHESIS OF A CONDUCTING COMPOSITE DOGAN, S; Akbulut, Ural; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 1992-11-01) We describe an electrochemical synthesis of a conducting composite of polyaniline. Poly(bisphenol A carbonate) was used as the insulating polymer matrix. Composite characterization was made using FT-IR, SEM and DSC data. The conductivities of the composites seemed to be in the order of pure polyaniline as prepared by the same method. Moreover, the above-mentioned methods reveal that the resultant composites have different properties compared to a simple mechanical mixture of the two polymers.
Conducting polymers of succinic acid bis-(2-thiophen-3-yl-ethyl)ester and their electrochromic properties SACAN, L; Çırpan, Ali; CAMURLU, P; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 2006-02-01) The homopolymer and copolymer of succinic acid bis-(2-thiophen-3-yl-ethyl)ester with thiophene were achieved via constant potential electrolysis in the presence of tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate as the supporting electrolyte, and acetonitrile/borontrifluoride ethylether (ACN/BFEE) (10:2 v/v) solvent mixture. The characterizations of both homopolymer (PSATE) and copolymer P(SATE-co-Th) were achieved by various techniques including cyclic voltammetry (CV), Fr-IR, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and U...
Admittance analysis of an MIS structure made with PECVD deposited a-SiNx : H thin films Atilgan, I; Ozder, S; Ozdemir, O; Katircioglu, B (Elsevier BV, 1999-07-01) a-SiNx:H thin films, prepared by the PECVD technique, were optically and electrically characterized. The frequency dependent trap admittance derived for the MIS structure in the accumulation gate voltage regime was revised. Based on these results an omitted multiplying factor was included into the derivation. An extension of the tunnelling model in the depletion bias regime was used in comparison with the widely accepted statistical model and finally, the more general feature of the tunnelling-based approac...
Electrical characterization of vacuum-deposited n-CdS/p-CdTe heterojunction devices Bayhan, H; Ercelebi, C (IOP Publishing, 1997-05-01) The effects of post-deposition processes such as CdCl2 dip and/or annealing in air on the material and device properties of vacuum-evaporated Au-CdTe/CdS-TO heterojunction solar cells have been investigated. The CdCl2 dip followed by air annealing at 300 degrees C for 5 min improved the device efficiency significantly, resulting in decreased CdTe resistivity and enhanced grain size. The temperature-dependent current-voltage analysis indicated that above 280 K interface recombination dominates the current tr...
Electrochemical preparation and characterization of carbon fiber reinforced poly (dimethyl siloxane)/polythiophene composites: electrical, thermal and mechanical properties Sankir, M; Kucukyavuz, S; Kucukyavuz, Z (Elsevier BV, 2002-05-10) A series of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)/polythiophene (Pth)/carbon fiber (CF) composites was synthesized by electrochemical polymerization using tetrabutylammoniumtetrafluoroborate (TBAFB) as supporting electrolyte and acetonitrile as solvent. Composites were characterized by TGA, SEM, and mechanical tests and conductivity measurements. Conductivities of composites were in the range of 25 S/cm. SEM studies show that CF were coated by PDMS/Pth matrix and well oriented in the matrix. In mechanical tests it ha...
