Abstract
Conducting polymers exhibit ion exchanger properties evoked by charging and discharging processes. The ion-exchange behaviour of electrochemically and chemically prepared polypyrrole (PPy) was investigated using electrochemic al quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) and ion-selective electrodes. An ion- exchanger electrode was prepared and tested in a laboratory loop considerin g the application of Pqr as an electrochemically switchable ion-exchanger f or water treatment.
