Pure nano Ferro fluid was synthesized by chemical co-precipitation method. The composite of polyaniline with nano sized Ferro fluid was prepared by In-situ–chemical oxidation polymerization method with ammonium per sulphate as an oxidant in aqueous hydrochloric acid under constant stirring at room temperature. The optical properties, absorption, transmission, optical energy gap (Eg) and optical constant refractive index (n) have been investigated. The value of the Eg decreased with increasing Ferro fluid concentration.

Various treatments on the PEDOT:PSS films were carried out to investigate it’s influence on the conductivity, morphology, transmittance and the corresponding impact of the performance of the organic photovoltaic devices based on the PCPDTBT:PCBM and P3HT:PCBM blends. These processing including doping PEDOT:PSS with DMF and ME solvents and exposing these films to the vapor of DMF and ME solvents, separately. A considerable enhancement of the conductivity and transmittance of PEDOT:PSS was observed after doping solvent into the PEDOT;PSS solution followed by solvent treatment through exposing these films to solvents environment. The best organic PV doped devices based on either PCPDTBT:PCBM or based on P3HT:PCBM with power conversion efficiency were 2.93% compared to 1.87% for the pristine  PV devices or 2.79% compared to 1.77%  for the pristine devices, respectively. The conductivity improvement was highly influenced by solvent treatment.

Polyaniline/sepiolite (PANI/sepiolite) nanofibers were prepared by in situ chemical oxidation polymerization in the presence of sepiolite. The effect of aniline/sepiolite weight ratio on the nanostructure of PANI/sepiolite composites was investigated by field-emission scanning electron microscopy. The adsorption of Cr(VI) onto the PANI/sepiolite nanofibers was highly dependent on pH values. The pseudo-second-order and Langmuir isothermal models can well describe the adsorption kinetics and adsorption isotherm, respectively. The maximum adsorption capacity of the PANI/sepiolite nanofibers for Cr(VI) was up to 206.6 mg/g at 25 °C and increased with the increase in temperature. Desorption experiments indicated that PANI/sepiolite can be regenerated and reused for two consecutive cycles with no loss of its removal efficiency. PANI/sepiolite nanofibers can be used as a highly efficient and economically viable adsorbent for Cr(VI) removal due to their excellent adsorption characteristics.

Polyaniline modified zinc oxide (PANI-ZnO) photocatalyst composites were synthesized by focusing on dissolution disadvantage of ZnO. In-situ chemical oxidation polymerization method was performed under neutral conditions (PANI-ES) whereas in hybridization method physical blending was applied using emeraldine base of polyaniline (PANI-EB). PANI-ZnO composites were prepared in various ratios of aniline (ANI) to ZnO as 1%, 3%, 6% and 9%. The alterations on the structural and morphological properties of PANI-ZnO composites were compared by Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR), Raman Spectroscopy, X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy-Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis Unit (SEM-EDAX) techniques. FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy confirmed the presence of PANI in all composites. SEM images revealed the morphological differences of PANI-ZnO composites based on PANI presence and preparation methods. Photocatalytic performances of PANI-ZnO specimens were investigated by following the degradation of methylene blue (MB) in aqueous medium under UVA irradiation. The effects of catalyst dose and initial dye concentration were also studied. MB degradation was followed by both decolorization extents and removal of aromatic fractions. PANI-ZnO composites expressed enhanced photocatalytic performance (~95% for both methods) as compared to sole ZnO (~87%). The hybridization method was found to be more efficient than the in-situ chemical oxidation polymerization method emphasizing the significance of the neutral medium.

Using 1-methyl-3-alkylcarboxylic acid imidazolium chloride ([CMMICl) ionic liquid (IL) as synthetic environment, CMMIm-PANI and CMMIm-PANI@ATP composites were successfully prepared via in situ chemical oxidation polymerization. The chemical characterization of the material before and after ATP adding was performed by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The morphology of the coatings was observed employing scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results are further indicated that PANI which coated on the surface of rodlike crystal ATP helped the formation of conductive path among ATP crystals which overlapped each other. The four probe conductivity apparatus was used to analyze the electronic properties of the composites. The conductivity of CMMIm-PANI@ATP and CMMIm-PANI are 10 S/cm and 1.8 S/cm respectively, which clearly showed that the introduction of ATP in composite makes the conductivity increased largely. In addition, thermogravimetric analysis shows that the thermal stability of CMMIm-PANI/ATP composites was enhanced and these can be attributed to the effect of coated ATP as barriers for the degradation of PANI.

In this work, chemical oxidation was used to polymerize conjugated polymer "Polypyrrole" at room temperature Graphene nanoparticles were added by in situ-polymerization to get (PPY-GN) nano. Optical and Electrical properties were studied for the nanocomposites. optical properties of the nanocomposites were studied by UV-Vis spectroscopy at wavelength range (200 -800 nm). The result showed optical absorption spectra were normally determined and the result showed that the maximum absorbance wave length at 280nm and 590nm. The optical energy gap has been evaluated by direct transition and the value has decreased from (2.1 eV for pure PPy) to (1.3 eV for 5 %wt. of GN). The optical constants such as the band tail width ΔE was evaluated, the value of ΔE for pure PPy was (0.0949eV) while for 5 wt. % of GN it was (0.5156 eV), It has been observed that the Urbach tail for pure PPy was smaller than that for PPy/GN nanocomposites and it increase as GN concentration increases. The A.C electrical conductivity at range of frequency (103Hz-106Hz) was increased by increasing the frequency and GN concentration about four order of magnitude. The s value was about (0.653-0.962) which means that the mechanism of conductivity is correlated hopping mechanism (C. H. P.). The dielectric constant and dielectric lose were determined and found to decrease with increasing frequency.

In this paper, the preparation of PANI was investigated via in secondary doping in-situ chemical oxidation polymerization. We use NH2SO3H as dopant, and HP3O4, H2SO4or HCl as secondary dopant, respectively. The influencing of products conductivity was discussed about difference secondary dopant with changing concentration. The synthesized polymer composites are characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and four probe conductivity apparatus. The results show that in redoping process, the conductivity of PANI was 3.1746 S/cm when the concentration of HCl was 1.0 mol/L. Meanwhile, the thermal stability of PANI prepared with HP3O4or H2SO4as secondary dopant was better than HCl as secondary dopant.

AgCl@polypyrrole(PPy) nanocomposites were synthesized through in situ chemical oxidation polymerization by using poly(vinylpyrrolidane) (PVP) as dispersant, and some Au colloid were prepared by using KBH4 as reductant and sodium citrate as stabilizer, then the Au nanoparticles-AgCl@PPy hybrid material was formed by physical chemical reaction. Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR) and electron dispersive spectrometer (EDS) data suggested that the hybrid material were composed of Au, AgCl and PPy. An amperometric glucose biosensor was fabricated by adsorbing glucose oxidase (GOx) to an Au nanoparticles-AgCl@PPy hybrid material modified platinum electrode. The biosensor exhibited a super highly sensitive response to H2O2.
