Advances in Chemical Engineering and Science, 1.

Abstract
Supported tritonX100 polyaniline nano-porous electrically active film has been fabricated successfully onto
indium-tin-oxide conducting probe using electrochemical polymerization process. The doping of TX-100 in
the polymeric network of PANI was suggested using cyclic voltammeter, UV-vis spectroscopy, and Fourier
Transform Infrared spectroscopy. The change in the surface morphology of PANI thin film due to incorporation
of tritonX-100 was investigated using Atomic Forced Microscopy and porosity has been confirmed
scanning electron microscopy, respectively. The surface morphology, uniformly disperse hexagonal close
packing of TX-100 in PANI matrices due to the incorporation of TX-100 in polymeric network of PANI was
confirmed by Atomic Force Microscopy. The electrical conductivity of PANI-TX-100 increases from 1.06 ×
10�–2 S/cm�–1 to 4.95 × 10�–2 S/cm�–1 as the amount of TX-100 increases during the polymerization. The change
in the morphology and electrical conductivity of PANI due to incorporation of TX-100 prove as a promising
material for the sensing application.
