Abstract

Simple redox reactions at ambient conditions have prepared manganese dioxide (MnO2) and MnO2/conducting polymer nanocomposites. Kee** the aqueous KMnO4 solution as a manganese source, MnO2, MnO2/polyaniline, and MnO2/polypyrrole nanocomposites are synthesized using ethylene glycol, aniline, and pyrrole as reducing agents, respectively. The powder X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that the prepared MnO2 and MnO2-based nanocomposites are amorphous. Fourier transform infrared spectral measurements further confirm the presence of functional groups. The change in the morphology of all samples was observed through scanning electron microscopy. The AC electrical conductivity and dielectric measurements are taken in the applied frequency range of 10 Hz–100 MHz. With the help of these experimental parameters, the electrical properties of MnO2, MnO2/polyaniline, and MnO2/polypyrrole nanocomposites are analyzed. Out of all prepared nanocomposites, the results signpost better conductivity for Ppy-MnO2 nanocomposite, and its conductivity enhances with the rise in applied frequency. Based on the observations, manganese-based conducting polymer composites can be used to develop electronic device-level applications. Also, the preparation method adopted in this study is simple, and these materials can produce on a large scale.
