Vm. Kobryanskii et Sa. Arnautov, THE ROLE OF DOPING IN ELECTROCHEMICAL SYNTHESIS OF CONDUCTIVE POLYMERS, Synthetic metals, 55(2-3), 1993, pp. 1371-1376
A hypothesis which considers the role of doping of marcromolecules gen
erated in the process of polyphenylene synthesis, is proposed. Such, f
lexible transparent high-molecular (n>90) films of polyphenylene were
obtained by electrochemical polymerization of benzene in aluminum chlo
ride and butylpyridiniumchloride based ionic liquid under high potenti
al. Effects of the process parameters on the structure and molecular m
ass of the samples were studied.
