A novel polyaromatic acid, poly(thiophenylenesulfonic acid) (PTPSA), prepared from a soluble precursor of poly(arylenesulfonium salt) was employed as a dopant for polyaniline (PAn). The electro-oxidative polymerization of aniline in PTPSA aqueous solution gives an electroactive PAn/PTPSA composite w

✦ Synopsis
Conductive polyaniline was synthesized in aqueous 1.0 M oxalic acid containing 0.1 M aniline by electrochemical and chemical oxidation and characterized by conductivity, solubility, ultraviolet and infrared spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry. The solubility experiments showed that the solubility of oxalic acid-doped polyaniline in dimethylsulfoxide and dimethylformamide increased to a certain extent. The soluble part of the polyaniline was free from impurities such as quinones. Cyclic voltammetric studies in oxalic acid medium revealed that aniline exhibited a similar behaviour to that in H,SO, and the polymerization rate was much slower than that in H,SO, .
