Description
Summary:Graphene oxide-Polyaniline (GO-PANI) nanocomposites are widely studied due to its electrical properties for energy storage applications. Graphene oxide (GO) is synthesized by exfoliating the Graphite oxide prepared by modified Hummers method. Polyaniline is synthesized by chemical oxidation polymerization method. GO-PANI nanocomposites are prepared by hydrothermal synthesis method by varying the PANI to GO ratio. XRD and FTIR analysis of the sample confirms the composite formation. SEM analysis shows that GO has sheet like and PANI has cluster like structure. GO-PANI composite forms cluster of PANI scattered on GO sheets. Electricalchemical studies on the composite are under investigation.
