Encapsulation of polyanilines into graphite oxide
Herein we report on the intercalation of polyaniline, poly(2-ethylaniline), and poly(2-propylaniline) into graphite oxide. This was achieved by taking advantage of the exfoliation/reconstruction properties of the layered host. The resulting intercalates were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis.
