Synthesis of Au nanoparticle–conductive polyaniline composite using H2O2 as oxidising as well as reducing agent

Abstract

We report a new method of synthesis of an Au nanoparticle–conductive polyaniline composite by using H2O2 both for reduction of HAuCl4 and polymerization of aniline in the same aqueous medium; the electrical conductivity of the composite has been measured to be two orders of magnitude higher than the polymer itself.
