It was found that both the electrical and mechanical properties of PANI films were enhanced by adding neutral salts in the polymerization. The adding of the neutral salts in the polymerization resulted in extended conformation of polymer chain and increasing of molecular weight of PANI, which may be the reasons why the electrical and mechanical properties of PANI films were improved by the presence of neutral salts in the polymerization.
