Polyaniline colloidal nanoparticles (PANI CNs) were synthesized, employing biopolymer pectin (Pec) as a stabilizer along with hydrochloric acid dopant and ammonium persulfate oxidant. Chemical nature and electronic structure was studied by FT-IR and UV- visible spectroscopy respectively. FE-SEM revealed spindle like morphology of PANI CNs and displayed the nearly discrete particles without aggregation, showing stabilizing capacity of the Pec. Cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic chargedischarge measurements demonstrated the electroactivity and supercapacitive property of the PANI CNs in 1 M HCl. The specific capacitance of PANI CNs in 1 M HCl at 1.5 A/g was found to be 197 F/g, where 70% of specific capacitance was retained even after 1000 cycles. These findings establish the feasibility of using the PANI CNs as a potential material for energy storage in aqueous acidic medium. Furthermore, this colloidal dispersion can find potential application in electrodes of flexible supercapacitor device and printable electronics.
