A Correlative Study of Polyaniline Electropolymerization and its Electrochromic Behavior

Abstract: The electrochemical polymerization of polyaniline (PANI) was studied using correlative measurements of electrochemistry and UV–vis spectroscopy, i.e., spectroelectrochemistry. The electropolymerization of PANI was performed in an acidic medium (1 M HCl) containing 0.1 M aniline with cyclic voltammetry (CV) in a potential window from −0.3 to 1 V and a 50 mV s−1 scan rate. At the same time, UV–vis absorbance spectra in the wavelength range from 200 to 900 nm were measured for every 10 mV change in the CV. The CV… Show more

“…Leucoemeraldine is known to be an unstable state of PANI [ 61 ]; therefore, after exposing the electrode to air at the end of the electropolymerisation, it is oxidised in the direction of emeraldine. The same conclusion was made after a correlative study of the electrodeposition and electrochromic behaviour of PANI [ 54 ]. Due to the fact that we are performing the electropolymerisation in an HCl electrolyte [ 43 ], the final product is HCl-doped PANI.…”

“…Only the first oxidation peak of the PANIs’ CV behaviour contains information of just the PANI reaction. In all the other peaks, pure bare-electrode material oxidation or reduction is included [ 53 , 54 , 55 ]. Therefore, by controlling the equality of the anodic current of the first oxidation, the reproducibility between polymerisations can be achieved.…”

“…The polymerization occurs between 0.1 and at 0.82 V vs. Ag/AgCl electrode and it can be observed an increase in the voltammogram can be observed due to the deposition of the conductive layer and the oxidation of the conductive polymer [ 16 ]. The two peaks correspond to the first oxidation of a dimeric form and then the full oxidation to pernigraniline [ 17 , 18 , 19 ].…”
