Resumen

This research outlines the fabrication of polymeric membranes and films of poly(lactic acid) (PLA), prepared via electrospinning and extrusion, respectively. These materials were subsequently coated with polyaniline (PANi) by using the in situ chemical polymerization technique. Scanning electron microscopy micrographs revealed that the best coatings were achieved when 3 and 30 min of contact time with the monomeric solution were used for the membrane and film, respectively. Additionally, Fourier transform infrared spectra, thermogravimetric studies, and contact angle measurements demonstrated proper interaction between PLA and PANi. The findings of these studies suggest that PLA membranes and films can serve as suitable substrates for the deposition of PANi, and the composite materials hold potential for use in environmental remediation applications.
