Abstract

Polyaniline (PANI) is a widely studied conducting polymer due to its ease of synthesis, environmental stability, and unique doping mechanisms. This review explores recent advancements in the synthesis and characterization of PANI and its nanocomposites with cadmium sulfide (CdS). Various synthesis methods, including conventional, ultrasonic, and chemical polymerization, are discussed. Structural, optical, and electrical properties are examined using XRD, FTIR, SEM, and TEM analyses. The interaction between PANI and CdS significantly influences crystallinity, conductivity, and photocatalytic efficiency. These nanocomposites exhibit promising applications in sensors, supercapacitors, and photovoltaic devices. The review highlights future research directions to enhance the performance and stability of PANI-CdS-based materials for advanced technological applications.
