Abstract
This paper presents the structural, conductivity, and photoluminescence properties of synthesized polyaniline-
copper(II) oxide (PAni-CuO) nanocomposite by chemical oxidation polymerization method with ammonium
persulfate as an oxidant in aqueous hydrochloric acid under constant stirring at 0-2°C in presence of N2-atmosphere.
CuO nanoparticles were synthesized by chemical co-precipitation method. Different weight percentage of CuO in
PAni constitutes different PAni-CuO composite material were synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction,
infrared, ultraviolet, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, photoluminescence and
electrical conductivity methods.
