SYNTHESIS AND OPTICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF POLYANILINE–TIN-OXIDE NANOCOMPOSITES

Polyaniline–tin-oxide nanocomposites have been successfully synthesized by the in situ polymerization method and their optical properties were investigated. It was established that the absorbance and transmittance of these nanocomposites decrease with increase in the amount, of tin-oxide nanoparticles in them and that their reflectance in the UV, VIS, and NIR regions of the electromagnetic spectrum is very low
