Summary
Large-scale of oriented Polyaniline nanorods have been synthesized by one-step electrochemical deposition on aluminium electrode without the aid of any templates. The diameters and lengths of polyaniline nanorods are in the range of 50–60 nm and 150–250 nm, respectively. The morphologies and molecular structures of the film are characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), Ultraviolet-Visual (UV-vis) and Fourier transform infared (FTIR). The effects of synthetic parameters, such as the concentration of aniline and electric current intensity, on the morphologies of polyaniline films are investigated.
