Abstract
The electrochemical characteristics of the polyaniline (PAn) films doped wi th dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid (DBSA) were investigated in aqueous solutio ns by means of cyclic voltammetry. The PAn-DBSAs film showed a good electro chemical activity in a weak acid solution as well as in a strong acid solut ion due to the incorporation of small cation instead of DBSA trapped in the film for charge neutralization of polymer matrix.
