Coating of polyaniline molecules on cotton fabric via Successive Ionic Layer Adsorption and Reaction (SILAR) technique

Abstract

© 2018 Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. Cotton fabric was coated with polyaniline molecules using Successive Ionic Layer Adsorption and Reaction (SILAR) technique. This method provides layer by layer deposition of polyaniline molecules. Infrared spectrum showed the vibrational peaks attributed with the presence of polyaniline molecules on the samples. Four-point probe measurements were done to obtain the surface conductivity of the samples. Upon increasing the dipping cycles, the conductivity of cotton fabric significantly increases. The optimum number of dipping cycle is found to be at 130. Beyond the optimum dipping cycle, the conductivity starts to decrease.
