Abstract
PANI nanofibers are prepared electrochemically by templateโfree method on a stainless steel electrode. Both the hydrophilicity and the lipophilicity of the modified SS surface are enhanced by the nanostructured PANI, and a superโamphiphilic surface is obtained in this way. The influence of polymerization conditions, such as polymerization potentials, polymerization time, the acidity, and the dopants on the superโamphiphilic property, has been systematically investigated. In addition, the mechanisms of obtaining a superโamphiphilic surface are briefly discussed.

## Abstract A novel approach has been explored to prepare brainโlike polyaniline (PANI) nanostructures with many convolutions (140โ170 nm in average diameter) using aniline/citric acid (CA) salt as the template and chlorine gas as the oxidant by a gas/solid reaction for the first time. The method p
