Resistometry (in-situ measurement) has been applied during the electro
synthesis of polypyrrole/paratoluene sulfonate and also subsequent to
polymer growth. Simultaneous monitoring during polymer growth was also
conducted by use of the Electro-chemical Quartz Crystal Microbalance.
The resistance changes during cyclic voltammetry of the PPy/PTS chara
cterise the effects of polymer thickness and cationic species of the s
upporting electrolyte.
