The solid-state synthesis of the novel chiral composites of poly[(±)-2-(sec-butyl)aniline] (PSBA) and silica-supported perchloric acid (SSPA).
It takes 120 h for complete deprotonation of PSBA.HCl salt.
Use of SSPA as dopant solid acid for the first time to attain the complete doping of PSBA.
The coating of silica surface with PSBA.
