Abstract:
Poly(4‐aminodiphenylamine)‐silver nanocomposites were synthesized by an easy one‐step aqueous chemical oxidative polymerization of 4‐aminodiphenylamine (4ADPA) using silver nitrate (AgNO 3 ) as the oxidant. Two different structure directing surfactants, p ‐toluene sulfonic acid (p‐TSA) and cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide/hydrochloric acid (CTAB/HCl), were independently used for the nanocomposite (NC) preparation. The NCs prepared in p‐TSA and CTAB/HCl medium were designated as P4ADPA/AgNC (p−TSA) and P4ADPA/AgNC (CTAB/HCl) , respectively. We investigated the morphological variations in the NCs based on the medium. P4ADPA/AgNC (p−TSA) and P4ADPA/AgNC (CTAB/HCl) were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy, X‐ray diffraction analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and UV‐visible spectroscopy.
