Abstract

In the current study, the DC conductivity of Polyaniline (PANI) and PANI/CuO nanocomposites was examined in relation to CuO nanoparticles doped to PANI. Additional Arrhenius plots showed that both for the pure PANI and its doped Nanocomposites, the activation energy has dropped. Additionally, samples are characterized for XRD analysis in order to ascertain their crystallinity. The weight % of CuO nanoparticles in Polyaniline was revealed to encourage the conductivity values. It is ascribed to Polyaniline long chain, which makes charge carrier hopping easier.
