Firstly, the bimodal Ag nanoparticles were synthesized with the help of precipitation method by semi-batch reactor and then ultrasonically blended inside the PANIEB matrix in the presence/absence of IPA followed by various characterization of Ag-PANIEB nanocomposite. It was observed that the bimodal dispersion of Ag nanoparticles inside PAIEB thin film was significantly improved in the presence of isopropyl alcohol (IPA). Such bimodal dispersion of Ag nanoparticles in the presence of IPA also enhances the electrical response of the Ag-PANIEB nanocomposite. A mechanism explaining the improvement in electrical response of bimodal Ag-PANIEB nanocomposite in the presence of IPA is proposed and discussed. © 2011 IEEE. date: 2012 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84867967931&doi=10.1109%2fICIAS.2012.6306126&partnerID=40&md5=041f5c1fe73146bef929c26f04922424 id_number: 10.1109/ICIAS.2012.6306126 full_text_status: none publication: ICIAS 2012 - 2012 4th International Conference on Intelligent and Advanced Systems: A Conference of World Engineering, Science and Technology Congress (ESTCON) - Conference Proceedings volume: 2 place_of_pub: Kuala Lumpur pagerange: 814-819 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781457719677 citation: Moiz, S.A. and Imran, S.M. and Kim, S.M. and Um, H.-D. and Jee, S.-W. and Malik, A.S. and Kim, H.T. and Lee, J.-H.
