Abstract

Glassy Mixed hafnium-titanium phosphates, Hf_xTi_(1-x) (HPO₄)₂.3H₂O (where x= 0.34, and 0.50) were prepared and characterized by chemical, XRD, FT-IR, SEM, and TGA. The materials were found to be amorphous with a glassy appearance. The reaction of thiophene alone, and a 1:1 mixture of thiophene and aniline, with Hf_XTi_(1-x) (HPO₄)₂.3H₂O led to the formation of Hf_XTi_(1-x) (HPO₄)₂ /polythiophene and Hf_XTi_(1-x) (HPO₄)₂ /polythiophene-co-polyaniline composites, respectively. These products were analyzed using elemental (CHNS) analysis and FT-IR spectroscopy. Electrical conductivity for resultant conducting polymers and copolymers represents a range of semiconductors.
