  • Published:
Polymer Bulletin Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The oxidation state of polyaniline (PANI) can be varied from the fully reduced leucoemeraldine base (LEB) to the half oxidized emeraldine base (EB) and to the fully oxidized form pernigraniline base (PNB). In this work, the synthesis and properties of the highest oxidation state of polyaniline, pernigraniline, in the base as well as the corresponding salt form are discussed.
