The polyaniline co‐doped with hydrochloric acid and sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate is prepared by in situ polymerization in one step directly on the polyester and cotton substrates. Polyaniline is a conjugate polymer containing aromatic rings and amino groups. The chemical bonds present in polyaniline as C═C double bonds, C─C bonds, and N─C bonds participate in conduction by delocalization of the electrons. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements on coated textiles are performed in order to determine electrical properties appropriate for applications in flexible solar cells. The structures of coated textiles are determined by infrared spectroscopy with attenuated total reflectance device and their morphologies are investigated by scanning electron microscopy. Experiments show uniform coating and good electrical properties for textiles.
