Abstract

Due to the advantages of material abundance and synthetic simplicity, polyaniline can be used as a high-capacity cathode material. However, its practical application in batteries has been hindered by poor electrochemical utilization and cycling instability. This paper reports the enhancement in the conductivity of the polymer (PAni) using the oxidation polymerization method. After successfully synthesis of PAni the vibrational properties have been analyzed by using FTIR. From experimental data, it has been observed that after doping of BaTiO3 the carriers along the surface enhanced which increases vibration along with the fingerprint reason. The polymers showed less electrical conductivity than polyaniline. Unlike polyaniline, the presence of the nitro group caused higher frequency dependence of electrical conductivity. The FTIR bands at 1492, 1291 and 1147 cm−1 are corresponding to the polyaniline salt.

Keywords- Polymerization, FTIR, Conductivity.
