what are properties of polyanalene

Dear Aspirant,

Polyaniline or PAni or PANI is considered to be a an Inherently Conducting Polymer or ICP. It is consistently used in electrical devices as it has amazing electrical conductivity with chemical stability and easy synthesis which enables it to control the oxidation and degree of protonation. It has many applications in different fields like it is used in sensors, charge storage systems and even for protection against corrosion. Its properties are:

• Crystallinity- This makes it strong and durable. This makes it hard and dense and a better choice than many others which can be used in such cases. PANI is semi-flexible, which means it contains the right amount of crystallinity.
• Conductivity- It is easy for PANI to pass heat and electricity and therefore, there is an increase of its use in electrical wires and the electrical industry. That is why it used in the manufacture of electrically conducting yarns, antistatic coatings, electromagnetic shielding and flexible electrodes.
• Electrochemical Behaviour

Hope this helps. All the best!

Hi Bhawna.

Polyaniline, also written as PANI, is a conducting polymer of the semi-flexible rod polymer family. It has high chemical stability. Its properties are -

• Conduction- PANI has a wide range of controllable electrical conductivity.
• Non- Toxic
• Anti-corrosive
• Can behave like a catalyst in several reactions
• Flexible
