| Abstract: | A novel organic/inorganic composite based on LiNi–ferrospinel with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and polyaniline (PANI), PANI/PMMA/LiNi0.5Fe2O4 composite, was synthesized via a facile in-situ polymerization process. The structures of the resulting samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy. The optical and thermal properties of the PANI/PMMA/LiNi0.5Fe2O4 composite were studied by fluorescent spectroscopy and thermogravimetry analysis. It was indicated that the existence of LiNi0.5Fe2O4 (LFNO) in the PANI/PMMA/LFNO composite resulted in changes in the fluorescence spectra. The as-obtained composite may have potential for electrical and electromagnetic applications in antistatic materials, electromagnetic shields, radar absorbers, and so forth. |
