How can the dispersibility of rGO/polyaniline composites be improved?

17 November 2018 1 2K Report

how best can we improve the dispersibility (especially for rGO/PANI) in NMP apart from long durations of ultrasonication and using surfactants like CTAB ?

Bernhard Wessling

in my view, the dispersibility of the rGO should first be investigated, without PAni coated onto it;

then, the synthesis of the composite should be looked at:

- how do you prapre it?

- how thick (thin) do you want the PAni to be on the rGO surface?

- and why?
