In-Situ Polymerized GO/PANI Composites: Structural Evolution, Optical Modulation, and NH₃ Sensing at Room Temperature
Abstract: Graphene oxide (GO)/polyaniline (PANI) composites with varying PANI contents (20, 40, and 60 wt%) were synthesized via in-situ oxidative polymerization and systematically investigated for their structural, morphological, optical, and gas-sensing properties. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed a progressive increase in interlayer spacing and partial exfoliation of GO layers with increasing PANI content, indicating intercalation-assisted hybridization. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy revealed the characteristic vibrational bands of both constituents and confirmed strong …

Structural, Electrical and Optical Properties of RGO-Incorporated PVA Nanocomposites for UV Shielding Applications
Abstract: Polymer matrix-based nanocomposites reinforced with appropriate nanoparticles have the potential to exhibit improved electrical, optical and mechanical properties, as well as improved UV-shielding capabilities. These materials are currently being utilised for various commercial applications, such as window shields and automotive components. We prepared reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-incorporated polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) polymer nanocomposites employing a solution casting method. XRD and SEM results confirmed that the rGO nanosheets were dispersed well in …
