Abstract

In this work are reported properties of polyaniline processed from trifluoroacetic acid. Films obtained by simple drop casting were smooth and defectless. Features like absorption in range of UV–vis-NIR, mid-IR and electrical conductivity are discussed. The highest electrical conductivity of such films was found equal to 65 S/cm. It was observed a striking feature—successive colour transition from cyan to deep green when the solvent was dried out from the cast film.
