Abstract
In this report, the self-templating synthesis of polyaniline nanowires on prestructured aluminum is described, emphasizing that anodization and electropolymerization can occur at the same time by a single electrochemical process. The method is based on the principle that the anodization of predefined aluminum in H2SO4 leads to the formation of highly ordered porous alumina and aniline monomer can be electrochemically polymerized in the formed porous alumina by the anodic reaction. XPS analysis reveals that polyaniline nanowires prepared in this work is protonated emeraldine.
