Abstract:
This research aim to determine the conductivity effect on various dopant agents,
for synthesis of polyaniline. The dopants used were 10-camphorsulfonic acid (CSA), and
Dodecyl benzene sulfonic acid (DBSA). While the surfactantused were, 2-Acrylamido-2-
metheyl-1-propanesulfonic acid (AMPSA) as an ionic surfactant, and Triton-X 100 as
anionic surfactant. Aniline will be oxidized to polyaniline using ammonium
peroxydisulfate as an oxidizing agent in the present of toluene. Each polymer sample
will be characterized using TGA, UV- VIS spectroscopy, and FTIR while the analyses of
the conductivity material have be performed by electric conductivity measurement, which
is galvanometer.
