Abstract
Stable suspensions of carbon nanoparticles in polyaniline solutions in N-methylpyrrolidone were compared with the suspensions in aqueous solutions of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide using spectrophotometry in UV— Vis—NIR regions. Polyaniline in low concentrations in N-methylpyrrolidone was found to be a more efficient surfactant than cetyltrimethylammonium bromide in water. Analysis of the optical spectra of suspensions of carbon soots in solutions of the polymer made it possible to reveal a noticeable change in the spectra of the starting polyaniline and nanotubes, indicating the chemical interaction of polyaniline with the carbon nanotubes.
