In-situ polymerization method was used to prepare palm-based polyurethane (PU) composites loading with 15 wt% magnetite (Fe3O4), polyaniline (PANI) and Fe3O4 coated with PANI labeled as PU15, PP and PPM, respectively. FTIR spectroscopy analysis indicated a shift in the carbonyl, C=O and NH in PP. Th...
