Sodium acrylate (NaAA) and acrylamide (AM) were grafted onto poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) using potassium persulfate as an initiator, Graft copolymerization namely poly (vinyl alcohol)-g-poly (acrylamide/sodium acrylate) (PVA-g-PAM/SAC). The poly (vinyl alcohol)-g-poly (vinylamine/sodium acrylate) (PVAMC) was prepraed by Hofmann rearrangement.The PVAMC homogeneous membrane was characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM).The water resistance of the PVAMC membranes is the best when pH of the PVAMC solutions was 4, at that time the numbers of-NH3+ and-COO- groups trended to be equal, so the isoelectric point was pH=4. At 90 °C the pervaporation of PVAMC composite membrane was tested and showed that the separation factor and the permeate flux were about 1001 and 1341 g/(m2·h) for 90wt% ethanol aqueous solution, and they were about 1297 and 1040 g/(m2·h) for 90wt% isopropanol aqueous solution.

Abstract Polyaniline (PANI) nanoparticles and PANI/poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) nanocomposite films were synthesized by the oxidative polymerization of aniline and ammonium peroxodisulfate (APS), as an oxidizing agent in aqueous medium. The PANI/PVA nanocomposite films were exposed to γ-irradiation after oxidative polymerization. Synthesized polyaniline (PANI) nanoparticles and PANI/PVA nanocomposite films were characterized by attenuated total reflectance infrared spectroscopy (FTIR-ATR), X-ray diffraction, high resolution scanning electron microscopy, (HRSEM) high resolution transmission electron microscopy, (HRTEM) and UV-VIS absorption spectroscopy. Energy band gap of PANI nanofibers was determined from Tauc’s plots which equal 4.2 eV. Scanning electron microscopy images show that chemically synthesized of polyaniline has nanofibers structure and irradiated PANI/PVA nanocomposite have a mixture of nanorod and nanosphere structures. The transmission electron microscopy show that chemically synthesized of polyaniline has average length in the range 34 ± 10 nm with less wide distribution, where as the irradiated PANI/PVA nanocomposite has coreshell structure.
