Z. Ping et Ge. Nauer, IN-SITU FTIR-ATR SPECTROSCOPIC INVESTIGATIONS ON THE POLYMERIZATION PROCESS OF POLY(THIENYLPYRROLE) THIN-FILM ELECTRODES IN NONAQUEOUS SOLUTION, Synthetic metals, 84(1-3), 1997, pp. 577-578
Using in situ FTIR-ATR spectroscopy, the electrochemical polymerizatio
n process of 2,2'-thienylpvrrole monomer in 0.5 mol cm(-3) LiClO4/acet
onitrile (AN) is investigated. According to the structure changes of t
he polymerization process recorded by infrared spectra, the polymeriza
tion mechanisms of the polymer are discussed in this paper. The monome
r and electrolyte absorption on the electrode/electrolyte interface, c
hemical and electrochemical polymerization of the monomer are clearly
divided at definite potential.
