Abstract
The mechanically induced electrochemical current have been observed in the free standing film of conducting polymer, polyaniline (PAni). Thi s mechanochemoelectrical effect is contrasted with the electrochemomec hanical deformation. The amount of mechanically induced charge was pro portional to the magnitude of the strength of load as well as the dime nsional change of the film. The amount of induced charge depended upon the degree of oxidation or doping state of PAni film.
