Polyaniline/PP conductive fiber was obtained by in-situ adsorption polymerization. In this work, we discussed the influence of these reaction factors such as adulteration acid concentration, oxidizer concentration, polyaniline monomer content and reaction time to the polymerization and conduct property. In the meanwhile, surface handling with plasma have also been compared for examining the change of polymerization and conduct property. FT-IR spectra analysis and the physic mechanical properties have been used to investigate the structure and properties of conductive fibers. The result shows that with this method of polymerization the conductive property is superior and the conductivity can be reached by 4.5KΩ.
