Abstract

This research article is intended for the novel study of thermal, electrical and dielectric properties of conducting polyindole (PIn) as-synthesized through chemical oxidative route. The characterization techniques such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy; X-ray diffraction and Thermo gravimetric-differential thermal analysis ensured the structural and thermal properties of the as-synthesized materials. The dielectric measurements of the samples were performed through AC impedance analyser in the frequency and temperature ranges from 20 Hz–1 MHz to 308–393 K respectively. The variation of AC conductivity with frequency obeys Jonscher’s universal power law. The modulus spectra depicted the non-Debye nature of the material. The dielectric studies of as-synthesized PIn samples validate their potential utilization for energy storage application. The thermal study ensures that, the synthesized samples have fairly good thermal stability.
