Abstract

The processing parameters of polyaniline (PANI) dictate the desired morphology and overall structural stability of the deposited polymer for biological and chemical sensor applications. Electrospun composites of leucoemeraldine based PANI (LEB-PANI) has exhibited effective separation of aggregates inherent in LEB-PANI powder as a result of charge separation induced on the composite matrix during electrospinning. However it appears the encapsulation of biological (enzyme-Urease E.C.3.5.1.5) in the electrospun matrix intensifies the self assembly process. An investigation of the changes in morphology as an effect of electrospinning and enzyme immobilization is discussed.
