Resumo
The incorporation of nanoparticles on polymer films is possible to obtain materials with desired properties. In the present work, we address the physical-chemical influence of nanoparticles in
polymer films by producing and characterizing polyaniline hybrids with SiO2 and Au nanoparticles and
comparing them with films with TiO2 nanoparticles. The hybrid films were characterized by SEM, EDS,
UV-Vis, AFM, Raman, and cyclic voltammetry. Unlike TiO2 nanoparticles, SiO2 and Au nanoparticles
do not promote any noticeable change in polyaniline oxidation state in less acid environments (pH 5.9
and 6.15). However, in those environments, the presence of nanoparticles significantly increases the
film's conductivity. At a pH of 1.5 and 3.9, all three kinds of nanoparticles are screened by ions from
the solution diminishing their physical-chemical effects on polyaniline. Thus, our results suggest that,
in general, nanoparticles don't have any physical-chemical effects on polyaniline films when deposited
in acid enough environments but can change their physical and chemical properties when deposited in
less acid environments.
