Synthesis of Polyaniline Under Electrolytic Plasma on Carbon Fiber Fabric

Polyaniline is synthetized on carbon fiber through electrolytic plasma applied in an acid monomer solution, without an oxidant. Pulsed‐plasma carbon fiber surface treatment is performed with two 1.0 kV pulses for 1 µs with an 200 µs off period. Different treatment times and ultrasound presence, to create microbubbles that can help plasma formation, are tested. The ultrasonic bath is not effective to produce higher quantities of polymer....
