The effects of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) on the dispersion of bi modal silver nanoparticles inside polyaniline emeraldine base (Ag PANIEB) as nanocomposite were investigated and discussed. Firstly, the bimodal Ag nanoparticles were synthesized with the help of precipitation method by semi batch reactor and then ultrasonically blended inside the PANIEB matrix in the presence/absence of IPA followed by various characterization of Ag PANIEB. It was observed that the bimodal dispersion of Ag nanoparticles inside PAIEB thin film was significantly improved in the presence of isoprop yl alcohol (IPA). Such bimodal dispersion of Ag nanoparticles in the presence of IPA also enhances the electrical response of the Ag PANIEB nanocomposite. A mechanism explaining the improvement in electrical response of bimodal Ag PANIEB nanocomposite in t he presence of IPA is proposed and discussed..

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
