Abstract:

Inorganic-organic hybrid materials are of the materials of interest to researchers for the purpose of developing them in this work. A hybrid material consisting of conductive polymer polyaniline (PANI) doped with dodecyl benzene sulfonic acid (DBSA) C18H30O3S with titanium oxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs ) was prepared by the direct chemical polymerization method, and then the optical and surface properties of the prepared materials were studied by UV-VIS spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscopy SEM , and Energy Dispersive X-Ray EDX. The EDX results confirm the presence of TiO2 in the composite material .The results clearly demonstrate that the composite films have good optical properties. As the content of TiO2 was increased in the polymer matrix, the shift of the optical absorption was observed.
