ABSTRACT

180It has been studied the mechanism of formation and physical chemical properties of epoxy–polyanilines composites obtained using both the curing agent and also the electroconductive filler of polyaniline (PAn) doped by tetrafluoroborate acid (PAn–BF 3). The factors having an impact on curing mechanism and properties of composites were analyzed. The activation and thermochemical parameters of a process depending on the content of PAn – BF 3 and its doping level have been determined on a basis of data of the thermogravimetric analysis. It was shown that the combination of properties both of curing agent and electroconductive component into one complex PAn–BF 3 gives the possibility essentially to simplify the conductive epoxy polymer obtaining, to receive the polymer-polymeric composites characterizing by electric conductivity 10−6–10−4 S/cm at relatively low content of PAn–BF 3 (10–15% mass); at the same time, such composites are characterized by high thermal, physical, and mechanical properties which makes it possible to use them for producing of antistatic coatings, electroconductive adhesives, electrodes, and so forth.
