Abstract

An electrically conducting ‘organic–inorganic’ composite material polyaniline Ce(IV) molybdate was prepared by incorporating electrically conducting polymer, i.e., polyaniline into inorganic precipitate of polyvalent metal acid salts i.e., Ce(IV) molybdate. The temperature dependence of electrical conductivity of this composite system with increasing temperatures was measured on compressed pellets by using a 4-in-line-probe dc electrical conductivity-measuring instrument. The values of conductivity lies in the semiconductor region, i.e., they are of the order of 10−5–10−2 S cm−1 and obey the Arrhenius equation. The thermal stability of this composite material in terms of dc electrical conductivity retention was studied under isothermal and cyclic techniques and electrical conductivity of composite was found to be sufficiently stable under ambient temperature conditions. The dependence of the electrical conductivity prepared with different concentrations of aniline monomers, on the concentration of conducting phases i.e., polyaniline was showed that electrical conductivity increase followed the percolation threshold.
