Abstract
With the purpose of determining prospects of possible applications of interpolymer complexes of polyaniline (PANI) with poly(amidosulfonic acid)s, we have performed a comparative study of polyaniline films prepared by electrochemical polymerization of aniline in the presence of the polyacids distinguished by different rigidities of the polymer backbone: (1) poly(2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanosulfonic acid) (flexible backbone); (2) poly-p,p′-(2,2′-disulfoacid)-diphenylen-iso-phthalamid (semi-rigid backbone); (3) poly-p,p′-(2,2′-disulfoacid)-diphelylen-tere-phthalamid (rigid backbone); and (4) a copolymer of the latter two acids with monomer feed ratio 1:1 (co-PASA). Spectroelectrochemical studies in the UV–vis–NIR range showed that PANI complexes with rigid-chain polyacids far more effectively modulate absorbance in the Vis–NIR range and can be considered as promising candidates for “smart windows” development. Due to the presence of bulky unmovable polyacid anion, PANI interpolymer complexes (particularly those with the semi-rigid-chain polyacids) possess much wider pH range of electroactivity than common PANI, which is of great importance for biosensor applications. The interpolymer complexes with flexible-chain and semi-rigid-chain polyacids exhibit good optical response to ammonia vapors at conditions of high humidity, which make them promising materials for the development of ammonia optical sensors.
