Reduced de-doping and enhanced electrical conductivity of polyaniline filled phenol-divinylbenzene composite for potential lightning strike protection application

[Display omitted] •A combination of phenolic hardener with DVB is mixed with DBSA-doped polyaniline complex to make a thermosetting conductive composite.•The phenol-DVB complex can be polymerized catatonically in the presence of acid doped-PANI without any additional catalyst.•The new structure of p...
