| Abstract: | Poly(o-methoxyaniline)(POMA)/BaFe12O19 composite was synthesized via a facile in situ polymerization approach for the first time. The structures of the products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, which indicated the existence of BaFe12O19 particles in the composite. The morphology of the as-prepared samples was observed by using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), which revealed that the POMA/BaFe12O19 composite appeared in the form of a general pseudo-sphere-like shape and consisted of numerous highly aggregated globules with rough surfaces. The optical properties of the POMA/BaFe12O19 composite were further investigated by UV-vis spectra. The decrease of band gap for the POMA/BaFe12O19 composite revealed that electronic structure of POMA was affected by BaFe12O19 particles. |
