Synopsis
The charge transfer (CT) interactions between polyemeraldine (PEM) and six organic electron acceptors were studied. The complexing ability of the acceptors, based on the maximum attainable electrical conductivity of the resulting complex, could be arranged in the following ascending order: tetrachloro-p-benzoquinone (p-chloranil) , tetrafhoro-p-benzoquinone (p-fluoranil) , tetrabromoo-benzoquinone (0-bromanil ) , 2,3-dicbloro-5,6-dicyano-p-benzoquinone ( DDQ ) , tetrachloro-obenzoquinone (0-chloranil) , and tetracyanoethylene (TCNE). Conductivity in the order of lo-' S/cm was achieved in the PEM/TCNE complex. The complexes were also characterized by infrared ( IR) absorption spectroscopy, thermogravimetric (TG ) analysis, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). In most complexes, the CT interactions have proceeded further than the formation of pure molecular complexes. However, the mechanism of CT interaction was found to be analogous to that of protonation of PEM by protonic acids.

## Abstract We report here that by good design, polyaniline (PANI) can be cytocompatible and formed into usable scaffolds for bio‐medical applications. By adjusting the ratio of two monomers, aniline (AN) and metanilic acid (MA), a series of copolymers with different sulfonation degrees have been s
Spherical nickel oxide (NiO) nanoparticles were prepared by using nickel chloride as precursor in the ethylene glycol as solvent and urea as precipitant. The Xray diffraction study showed that NiO has single-phase cubic structure with average crystallite size of 35 nm. The prepared NiO nanoparticles
The synthesis of some water-insoluble synthetic polyelectrolyte complexes formed between a weak polyanion and a strong polycation was followed. Sodium salts of poly(acry1ic acid) and of some copolymers of acrylic acid with itaconic acid or maleic acid were used as anionic polymers. Cationic polyelec
Conducting poly(acrylamide) films were synthesized by exposing the polyacrylamide films impregnated with ammonium peroxodisulphate, an oxidizing agent, to hydrochloric acid vapor and then to aniline vapor. The effects of varying the exposure time to aniline vapor and the resulting composite films of
