Synthesis and experimental investigation on thermal conductivity of nanofluids containing functionalized Polyaniline nanofibers

► We report the interesting TC enhancement in PANI nanofibers nanofluids in DI-water. ► 1D-PANI NPs are easy to be dispersed in matrix to achieve desired properties [7]. ► Lee et al. showed metallic transport in polyaniline in 2006 [8]. ► We have measured temperature dependent TC enhancement with respect to DI-water. ► Particle loading effect on thermal conductivity is also investigated.
