Organic molecule conjugates usually arrange themselves into complex multiphase systems that are sensitive to processing and local chemical environment. Moreover, these conjugates are able to self-assemble at different scales, varying from nano- to macroscale. In addition, intermolecular interactions introduce structural variations in the molecular packing and large-scale ordering, which directly affects different physicochemical properties of the materials. Herein, we study the synthesis of polymer blends based on poly(e)-caprolactone (PCL) with polyaniline (PANI) doped with the amino acid N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC). Samples were prepared either through solution casting or via electrospinning methods. The materials were characterized regarding their morphological, structural, and molecular properties at different length scales. From the results obtained, the relationship between changes in blend properties and different NAC concentrations was determined. Deep structural details have been unveiled by using ...
