Abstract

Aligned polyaniline nanotubules were prepared by electropolymerization/template method. Scanning electron microscopy micrographs reveal their alignment, uniform dimension as well as open-ended properties. Nickel was successfully encapsulated inside the polyaniline nanotubules by chemical treatment followed by electroplating process. Energy dispersive spectroscopy confirms the presence of nickel inside the polyaniline nanotubules.
