In this paper, we demonstrated a novel method for the preparation of highly conductive polyaniline (PANI) compounded with Sn(OH)4. We obtained the PANI directly in the oxidation polymerization system via simultaneous reaction of aniline (using ammonium persulfate, APS as oxidant) and SnCl4 in carbamide aqueous solution. The resulting PANI was compounded with Sn(OH)4 had been characterized by FTIR, UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry, thermal analysis, scanning electron microscope and conductivity measurements, and the results showed that PANI was in well doped state due to the hydrolysis of APS and the complex between PANI and Sn(OH)4. We are sure this alkali-guided polymerization to obtain conductive PANI will lead to the preparation of a new class of PANI composites.

This report presents the effect of synthesis conditions on the synthesis of graphene nanosheets via electrochemical exfoliation method for adsorbing methylene blue from aqueous solution. Oxygen-containing functional groups and defects in the material were characterized by Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). As a result, by using voltage of 15 V, (NH4)2SO4 (5%, 250 mL) and KOH (7.5%, 250 mL), the obtained material showed the highest MB adsorption capacity due to the high densities of oxygen-containing groups and defects comparison to other conditions.

Thermal oxidation of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibers was accomplished at temperatures up to 250°C for different oxidation times. Chemical integration of PAN fibers with an aqueous solution of ammonium persulfate was performed before starting thermal oxidation. The results recommend that ammonium persulfate integration enhanced the oxidation reactions of the PAN fibers and resulting in enhanced thermal stability. Ammonium persulfate impregnation followed by the oxidation process in the air environment leads to significant deviations in the characteristics of PAN fibers. To perform structural characterization of the raw and ammonium persulfate (APS) incorporated and stabilized samples, XRD, IR-spectroscopy, TGA was executed in this study. Investigation of the XRD and infrared spectroscopy outcomes recommended quick aromatization reactions with growing oxidation periods. The TGA traces indicated a comparative enhancement in the thermal stability of the PAN fibers by the increased carbon yield with the rise of the oxidation time. The overall findings recommend that ammonium persulfate incorporation was very influential in stimulating the oxidation process.

Novel kenaf-based superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) were prepared by grafting acrylic acid (AA) and acrylamide (AM) onto kenaf cellulose. Graft copolymerization was carried out in aqueous solution using N, N’-methylenebisacrylamide (NMBA) as crosslinking agent and sodium bisulfite (NaHSO3) and ammonium persulfate ((NH4)2S2O8) as initiator. The SAPs so obtained were examined by SEM. The absorbency of SAPs consists of different kenaf cellulose in deionized water, saline solutions and different pH value solutions were investigated.

The grafted hydrogels of N-isopropylacrylamide (IPAAm) with 2-hydroxyethylacrylate (HEA) was prepared in an aqueous solution using ammonium persulfate (APS) and N,N,N’,N’-tetramethylethylene diamine (TEMED) as an accelerator. Lower critical solution temperature (LCST) and swelling ratios were measured as a function of temperature. The properties of the hydrogels contained pyrenyl probe in water were investigated by fluorescence spectroscopy.

In this study, electrochemical exfoliation method was adopted in the production of graphene oxide (GO). The electrolyte used was sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) aqueous solution at various concentrations from 0.001 to 1.0 M. The effect of SDS concentrations on the morphology of GO samples were characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive X-ray, micro-Raman and UV-Vis spectroscopy. As evident by the FESEM analysis, the concentration of SDS does give effect to the GO obtained in this study. The lowest GO production is given by the lowest concentration of SDS used which is 0.001 M. However, in term of ID/IGratio, the sample prepared at 0.001 M has the lowest value (0.33) as compared to the sample prepared with highest SDS concentration of 1.0 M (ID/IG~1.12). Meanwhile, the presence of absorbance peaks in the range of 224-237 nm from UV-Vis spectra analysis were seen for the whole samples and this indicate the formation of GO.

AbstractPolyaniline (PANI) nanofibers were prepared using an organic solution of aniline as seed in aqueous solution of ammonium persulfate oxidant. Two types of organic solvents were used, which are miscible and immiscible with water to investigate their effect on the properties of the resulting PANI via the aid of SEM, UV-Vis and FT-IR spectra and conductivity measurements The water dispersity of the polymer was also discussed based on the UV-Vis spectra data. Two possible mechanisms were proposed to explain the formation of the PANI nanofibers during the seed polymerization.
