Nanofiber Reinforced Composite Polymer Electrolyte Membranes [PDF]
, 2010 Stable dedoped PAni nanofiber-P(VdF-HFP) composites can be readily prepared by interfacial polymerization followed by solution casting method. The TEM result shows that polyaniline nanofibers of diameter 20-30 nm in size are formed by interfacial polymerization. The ionic conductivity of dedoped PAni nanofiber-P(VdF-HFP) based composite electrolyte was
