Abstract
The influence of water on the electrochemical preparation and conducti vity of polypyrrole films and porous layers is discussed. Values from 0.5 to 1 wt% of water in electrolyte have been found to be optimum for obtaining polypyrrole films with maximum conductivity. Both films and layers have shown a high sensitivity to the water vapour present in t he measuring column in a temperature range of 268-277 K.
