Conducting Polymers and their nanocomposites have been known for a while and are used in diverse range of applications. This study involves the synthesis of nanocomposites of Iron oxides particles coated with silica and in-situ polymerization of polyaniline. These nanocomposites are examined by Scanning Electron Microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy for their structural morphology and bonding information.
