4. Conclusions
In this experiment, optimisation of the aniline was performed
to obtain a free-standing PANI(DBSA)/PVA film for use in
various semiconductor applications. The systematic study
was conducted for morphology, thermal, mechanical and most
importantly electrical conductivity. The shape of
PANI(DBSA)/PVA particles shows variation from hexagonal
(D1) to spherical (D4) and then to hexagonal (D7) that is due
to the change of micellar shape, i.e. from hexagonal to spherical
and again back to hexagonal, with increase in aniline concentration.
FTIR spectra show shift of peaks at 3220 cm1 and
