Ultrasonic irradiation is employed to assist the chemical oxidative polymerization of aniline in the presence of Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles in order to prepare a polyaniline (PANI)/Fe 3 O 4 magnetic nanocomposite. In the chemical oxidative polymerization of aniline in the initially neutral medium, the optimum molar ratio of the oxidant ammonium persulfate to the monomer aniline is 2 : 1. The prepared PANI is in the emeraldine form and is doped by sulfate anions. Fe 3 O 4 particles are encapsulated by PANI and dispersed well in PANI. Fe 3 O 4 increases the doping level and decreases the crystallinity of PANI. The PANI/Fe 3 O 4 nanocomposite possesses conductivity and magnetic properties. Increasing the Fe 3 O 4 content increases the magnetization of the PANI/Fe 3 O 4 composite but decreases its conductivity. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 102: 2107–2111, 2006
