dc.description.abstract	After long-term aging, surfactant-mediated colloidal aggregates of sulfonated polyaniline (S-PANI) and poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVF2) converted into three-dimensional polymer networks, whereas colloidal crystals prepared from pure PVF2 remained unaltered. A model, where the surfactant tails anchored from the colloidal particles interdigitate with time resulting in coalescence of the particles to form the network morphology, has been proposed. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) revealed higher relative abundances of carbon atoms on the surface of the polymer networks than those of the colloidal aggregates, which adequately supports the proposed model. © Springer-Verlag 2003.
