abstract = "Combining the electrical, optical, and magnetic properties of polyaniline (PANI) with
excellent chemical and physical properties of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) is an efficient
way to create novel functional nanomaterials with potential applications in biosensing and
therapy, energy conversion and storage. In the present work, we report polyaniline/gold
nanocomposite (PANI/Au) obtained by two-phase, water/toluene, interfacial chemical
reaction. The polymerization process occurs at the interface of the organic phase (with
aniline) and acidic water solution (with oxidant and Au NPs). Using this strategy, secondary
growth of PANI could be suppressed. Transmission and scanning electron microscopy
measurements were confirmed that PANI was formed as nanofibers decorated with 17 nm
Au NPs. Characterization of the samples performed with UV-Vis and FTIR spectroscopy
and XRD technique are used for description of the optical properties, interaction between
components and structure of PANI/Au system. The obtained results indicate that the
present synthetic route produces the PANI in conductive form (doped emeraldine salt
form) with specific electric behavior, which makes PANI/Au nanocomposite suitable
material for a wide range of applications.",
