| dcterms.abstract | Polyaniline (PANI) belongs to the conducting polymers and has been studied for so many years. PANI has three different states depending on the redox process. In this thesis, we used the completely reduced form leucoemeraldine base (LEB) to synthesize the Chemomechanical actuator. Cellulose Acetate (CA) was used to be the matrix because CA can provide a strong mechanical property for the film synthesizing. PANI and CA molecules interconnected and form the Chemomechanical actuator, which has the selectivity for acetone vapor. We tested and recorded the Chemomechanical actuator's bending angle and time, and its unique character for acetone selectivity. Scanning electron microscopy was conducted to observe the actuator's morphology. EDS was also carried out to understand the element component about PANI/CA actuator. FTIR was achieved to characterize the composition. At the end, we expect the application and future work on PANI/CA actuator and more detailed work will be done in the future.   | |
