Abstract
Summary: Conducting polyaniline (PANI) and montmorillonite (MMT) nanocomposites were prepared from aniline sulfate and MMT by a mechanochemical synthesis route. X‐Ray diffraction analysis confirmed that, by controlling the aniline sulfate content, mechanochemical synthesis led to two types of different formations. After polymerization, the mechanochemical route synthesized much more PANI between the clay layers compared to a solution method. The electrical conductivities of the synthesized PANI‐MMT nanocomposites in pressed pellets ranged in the order of between 10^−4^ and 10^−3^ S · cm^−1^.
