The FTIR spectra of Cht, PANI, and Cht-PANI are shown in Fig. 4. FTIR
spectrum of Cht exhibits adsorption bands at 3446, 2924, 2870, 1649
and 1086 cm−1. The peak at 3446 cm−1 is due to overlapping of the
stretching bands of both primary amine [23] and –OH groups present
in chitosan. The peak located at 2870 cm−1 indicates the C–H stretching
vibration in CH and CH2 [23]. The peak occurs at 1649 cm−1 indicates a
stretching vibration peak of C=O in –NHCO– [24]. The spectrum of PANI
shows the presence of characteristic absorption bands at 1555 cm−1
(C=C stretching vibration of the quinoid ring), 1476 cm−1 (stretching
vibration of C=C of the benzenoid ring) and 1288 cm−1 (C–N stretching
vibration) [25]. The bands in the range of 3000–3500 cm−1 correspond
to secondary amine stretching (N–H) vibrations [26]. The FTIR spectrum
of Cht-PANI composite shows the following adsorption bands at 3442,
2936, 2853, 1643 and 1120 cm−1.With respect to Cht, many functional
groups shifted to different bands or disappeared. The bands at 3446,
