Investigation of Doehlert matrix conception in novel intrinsically conducting polymers based on selenium nanoparticles for wastewater treatment: Synthesis, characterization, kinetic and chemometric study.

The synthesis of robust intrinsically conducting polymers (ICPs) based on nanoparticles is becoming increasingly attractive to the research community due to the unique properties of these nanocomposites. Indeed, as organic semiconductors, ICPs combine both polymer and metal properties in a single structure. This study presents an innovative approach in which the Doehlert Matrix (DM) is applied to a novel ICP nanocomposite based on polyaniline (Pani) coupled with selenium (Se) loaded mesoporous titania (TiO) for wastewater treatment by photocatalysis.
