METHOD FOR SYNTHESIZING ZNS-PANI BINARY COMPOSITES

Abstract

ABSTRACT A method (100) for synthesizing ZnS-PANI binary composites, comprising: preparing an aqueous solution of polyaniline (PANI); synthesizing zinc sulfide (ZnS) nanoparticles in an aqueous medium to obtain a stable dispersion; combining the ZnS dispersion with the PANI solution under controlled conditions to prevent agglomeration and ensure uniform integration; casting the resulting ZnS-PANI solution onto a substrate to form composites; employing a controlled synthesis process to ensure the formation of ZnS-PANI binary composites with enhanced electrochemical properties for energy storage applications.
