Abstract
In this study, the dibenzoyl-L-tartaric acid (DBTA) was used as doping agent to synthesis polyaniline (PANI) by direct oxidative polymerization of a chiral aniline monomer repeat unit. The influence of DBTA on the electrical performances of the polyaniline was studied with the synthesis conditions, particularly the molar ratio of DBTA to aniline and the presence of methanol. The spectral characterization (FT-IR and UV-visible-NIR), the thermal (TGA), electrical properties at macroscopic scale (I-V, C-V curves and the gap) and the morphology of the PANI have been investigated. From the results it's found that synthetic conditions have a great influence on the electrical properties of PANI-DBTA. In addition polyaniline micro-fibres can be obtained when using methanol as a solvent of DBTA.
