摘要

Polyanilines doped with (HCl + KCl) and (HCl + CoCl2) were prepared by co-doping method, respectively. For comparison, polyaniline emeraldine salt (ES) by doping with HCl and its emeraldine base (EB) form were also synthesized. The co-doped polyanilines, ES and EB samples were all characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy aiming to understand the transformations in the different doping status. The results show that the doping degree of K+ ions is considerably higher than that of Co2+ ions under the same co-doping conditions possibly due to different pseudoprotonation constants of EB with K+ ions and Co2+ ions. Moreover, morphology difference of polyamiline co-doped with alkaline metal ions or transition meal ions may arise from different coordination geometry of metal ions. Nevertheless, there are similar chemical transformations of quinoid units to benzenoid ones on polyaniline backbones for the ES and both co-doped samples. And the polyaniline backbones co-doped with H+ and metal cations are found to attain weaker charge delocalization than the ES which is doped solely with H+.
