Abstract

The synthesis of nano and microstructured thin polyaniline (PANI) films by a simple and very efficient template-assisted method is presented. This work shows the synthesis and characterization of acoustically rigid thin films structured at nanotubular shape by using methyl orange (MO) as a template-assisted system. The amount of the tubes can be easily controlled by the charge passed. The morphology for different films growth was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), Atomic force microscopy (AFM), and quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation mode (QCM-D). Raman spectroscopy results show important changes in the conformational PANI chain of the tubular material compare with a non-tubular one that provokes the increase of bipolarons population. This should be responsible by some changes in the electrochemical behavior of tubular film compared with the granular material, due to the higher conductivity when the emeraldine form starts to be formed.
