摘要
Electrochemical polymerization of aniline in an HCl solution on a single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) film has been studied by Raman and FTIR spectroscopy. It is shown that this method leads to a covalent functionalization of SWNTs with polyaniline (PANI). A careful study in Raman scattering shows that the increase in the intensity of the band at 178cm(-1) associated with radial breathing modes of SWNTs bundles suggests an additional nanotubes roping with PANI as a binding agent. A post chemical treatment with the NH4OH solution of polymer-functionalized SWNTs involves an internal redox reaction between PANI and carbon nanotubes. As a result, the polymer chain undergoes a transition from the semi-oxidized state into a reduced one. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
