Due to environmetal and social concerns about synthetic polymers, studies on the preparation of polymers based on renewable sources have been explored by academia and industry. In this context, the use of cashew industry residues rich in phenolic compounds, such as cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) and its derivative, cardanol, in the synthesis of polymeric materials may be a less aggressive alternative to environment. This work aims to prepare polymeric materials using phenols from the CNSL. The influence of phenols in nanostructured polyaniline (PAni) synthesis were evaluated. Hybrid materials based on PAni doped with cardanol and derivatives of graphene, graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO), were also prepared. In addition, the influence of cardanol and PAni doped with cardanol on the thermal properties of benzoxazine resins was investigated. The polymeric materials were characterized by FTIR, UV-vis, FESEM, TEM, XRD, TGA, DSC and four-point methodology for determination of electrical conductivity. From these results, it was found that cardanol and CNSL acted as primary dopants in the synthesis of conductive PAni (electrical conductivity in order 10-1 S.cm-1). CNSL acted as soft template and plasticizer for the conventional synthesis of nanofibers PAni doped with hydrochloric acid. The methodology developed for preparation of cardanol doped PAni combined with both GO and rGO was able to prepare conductive (electrical conductivity in order 100 S.cm-1) and nanostructured hybrid materials. Furthermore, cardanol and PAni doped with cardanol were incorporated into the benzoxazine matrix to form materials with thermal stability and crosslink density greater than those of the benzoxazine resin.
