Characterization of 1:12 Phosphomolybdic Anions Doped Polypyrrole (PMo12/PPy) Film Electrode

1:12 phosphomolybdic anion doped polypyrrole film electrode was characterized by in-situ UV-vis spectroelectrochemistry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS), scan electronic microscopy(SEM) and electron spin resonance(ESR) spectroscopy.

STUDY OF A 1/12 PHOSPHOMOLYBDIC ANION DOPED POLYPYRROLE FILM ELECTRODE AND ITS CATALYSIS

A phosphomolybdic anion doped polypyrrole (PMo12O403- + PPy) film electrode has been prepared by electrochemical polymerization of pyrrole in an aqueous solution of 0.5 mol l-1 H2SO4 or 0.5 mol l-1 KNO3 containing PMo12O403- anions, and characterized by scanning electron microscopy and in-situ UV-visible spectroelectrochemical methods. The film electrode obtained is very stable upon potential cycling in acidic solution, but not in neutral solution. The catalytic effect of the film electrode on the reduction of ClO3- and BrO3- was studied.

CUPRIC HEXACYANOFERRATE COLLOID DOPED POLYPYRROLE FILM-MODIFIED ELECTRODE

Anionic colloid cupric hexacyanoferrate (CuHCF) was incorporated into polypyrrole (PPy) films in the course of electrochemical polymerization of pyrrole from aqueous solution containing pyrrole and CuHCF colloid. The films obtained were dark brown in color. Three redox peaks appeared in the cyclic voltammogram (CV). The peaks around 0.7 V (vs, SCE) showed cation-selective properties. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic analysis and ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopic properties of the film were investigated.

INDIGO-CARMINE-MODIFIED POLYPYRROLE FILM ELECTRODE

Functionalized polypyrrole films were prepared electrochemically in the presence of indigo-carmine from aqueous solution. The film shows a couple of reversible redox peaks superimposed on a large background of polypyrrole. The redox reaction is pH dependent. The film has good stability in air and can be cycled between -0.1 and 0.4 V (Ag/AgCl) for several hours without any significant changes in the voltammograms. UV-visible spectra indicate the incorporation of indigo-carmine into the polymer matrix.

EFFECTS OF DOPANT AND SOLVENT ON THE PROPERTIES OF POLYPYRROLE - INVESTIGATIONS WITH CYCLIC VOLTAMMETRY AND ELECTROCHEMICALLY INSITU CONDUCTIVITY

A new method for electrochemically in situ conductivity measurements based on a reusable glassy carbon disc carbon fibre array double electrode is described. Using this technique and cyclic voltammetry, we have investigated the effects of the doping anion and solvent on the electrochemical properties of polypyrrole film. The electroactivity and potential dependent conductivity of polypyrrole film are strongly affected by solvent and the doping anion's solubility in the solvent, and also by the history of electrochemical treatments in different electrolyte solutions. It is very interesting that NO3-doped polypyrrole can completely keep its conducting state (doped state) at a reasonably negative potential (eg -0.8 V vs. sce) in acetonitrile solutions.

ELECTROCHEMICALLY CONTROLLED RELEASE OF ADENOSINE 5'-TRIPHOSPHATE FROM POLYPYRROLE FILM

Polypyrrole (PPy) film is synthesized by anodic polymerization of pyrrole onto the surface of a platinum electrode in the presence of toluene-p-sulfonate and the film is used for the controlled release of the neurotransmitter, adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP).
