The Applications of Solid-State NMR to Conducting Polymers. The Special Case on Polyaniline

Polyaniline is one of the most well studied conducting polymers due to its advanced electrical, chemical, redox and morphological properties. The high conductivity of regular polyaniline, when partially oxidized and doped under acidic conditions, has been associated with the formation of unique elec...

description Polyaniline is one of the most well studied conducting polymers due to its advanced electrical, chemical, redox and morphological properties. The high conductivity of regular polyaniline, when partially oxidized and doped under acidic conditions, has been associated with the formation of unique electronic states known as polarons and bipolarons. Alternative aniline oxidation products and interesting nanotube and nanorod forms have been observed as the synthesis conditions are varied. Solid-state NMR has offered great opportunities for structural investigations and the determination of molecular dynamics in such a complex and diverse material. This review summarizes various applications of solid-state NMR techniques to polyaniline and its derivatives and the information that can be obtained by solid-state NMR.
