In this data we report on conductors polymers nanocomposites synthesized by in situ polymerization of aniline (ANI) and/or 4-aminobenzylamine (4-ABA) in presence of chromium montmorillonite (MMT-Cr+3) and ammonium persulfate as oxidizing agent. Homopolymers and copolymers (PANI-co-4-ABA) were prepared at various initial monomer composition and were characterized by Fourier transform Infrared (FT-IR) and UV–vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and cyclic voltammeter. The data describes the behavior of the corresponding homopolymers Poly (4-ABA) and (PANI) and showed that the in-situ polymerization produced real nanocomposites containing aniline and 4-aminobenzylamine units and films of products exhibit good electrochemical properties.
