By integrating CNTs with PANi nanofibers, high density and high-suiface areas are possible that can lead to improvements in the conductivity and the development of electronic devices with superior properties [78]. The composites of PANi-CNT can be synthesized by various methods such as electrochemical processing, surfactant free aqueous polymerization, micelle-CNT hybrid template directed synthesis, inverse emulsion pathways, interfacial polymerization, plasma polymerization, in-situ and ex-situ polymerization. The details of these methods have been discussed by Oueiny et al. [8]. In-situ polymerization is one of the most important methods developed so far to integrate CNTs and polyaniline. Polymerization methods include stirring, static placement, sonication and emulsion polymerization [78].
