Avoid using dopant

Hi,

Emmanuel, the paper you mention does not describe a direct polymerisation of Aniline to Emeraldine base. Here is a link to this paper:

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/223367554_FTIR_spectroscopic_and_conductivity_study_of_the_thermal_degradation_of_polyaniline_films

To mz knowledge, there is no direct synthesis of the base (because aniline is not easy to polymerise if not under acidic conditions). One would probably have to go completely different synthesis way, I don't know. (would be interesting to see)

For every oxidation there is oxidation potential, which is achieved by meeting few conditions. You will be able to get direct polyaniline. This will be accompanied by other products.

Best will be synthesizing by using horseradish enzyme/bacteria.
