A graft copolymer of polyvinyl chloride and polypyrrole, PVC-g-PPy, ha
s been electrochemically synthesized. Potassium pyrrole was used to pr
epare the polymerization precursor PVC-Py. H-1 NMR data implies that e
very 27 repeating unit of the PVC has one pyrrole branch. The copolyme
r film was prepared by elctrochemical polymerization of pyrrole using
the precursor film. This copolymer shows good electrochemical activity
and maximum conductivity of 3.2 (Omega cm)(-1).
