Electrochemical Synthesis and Characterization of Nano Poly(o-anisidine-co-ethyl 4-aminobenzoate)

Article Preview

Abstract:

Electroactive copolymer of o-anisidine and ethyl 4-aminobenzoate were synthesized in 1 M HClO4 using cyclic voltammetry on glassy carbon electrode. The copolymer was characterized by FT-IR spectral data. The surface morphology was studied using SEM analysis. The grain size of the copolymer was measured using XRD studies and was found to be 70 nm. The electrical conductivity of the copolymer was 3.14 ×10−3 S cm−1, as determined using a four-probe conductivity meter.
