Enhanced thermoelectric properties of CNT/PANI composite nanofibers by highly orienting the arrangement of polymer chains
Abstract
Carbon nanotube (CNT)/Polyaniline (PANI) thermoelectric composite nanofibers were prepared by a combination of in situ polymerization and electro-spinning processes. The obtained composite nanofibers were macroscopically aligned, while the CNTs were embedded in the nanofibers and oriented along the fiber axis. Polarized Raman spectra and X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies verified that the PANI backbone chains were orientated along the CNT axis and therefore along the fiber axis due to the strong chemical interactions between PANI and CNTs. The highly ordered arrangement of the PANI backbone chains not only reduces the π–π conjugated defects in the polymer backbone, but also increases the effective degree of electron delocalization and therefore enhances the carrier mobility in PANI, which results in the anisotropic thermoelectric properties especially with more than a doubled improvement of power factor in the orientation direction. This study not only provides an effective route to orient the conducting polymer chains at the molecular level but also demonstrates a possibility to design a conducting polymer with high thermoelectric performance through constructing a highly extended and orderly aligned backbone chain structure by chemical routes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
