In-Situ Spectroelectrochemical Study of Conductive Polyaniline Forms for Sensor Applications

Our contribution focuses on a correlative study of polyaniline (PANI) electropolymerisation and UV/VIS spectroscopy. PANI was prepared via electro-oxidation using a potentiodynamic method on commercial gold screen-printed electrodes (Au-SPE). By using an in-situ spectroelectrochemical method, the de...

description Our contribution focuses on a correlative study of polyaniline (PANI) electropolymerisation and UV/VIS spectroscopy. PANI was prepared via electro-oxidation using a potentiodynamic method on commercial gold screen-printed electrodes (Au-SPE). By using an in-situ spectroelectrochemical method, the development of the polymer was observed from monomer, monomer oxidation to final polymer formation and its transformations between the oxidation forms. The results confirm the spontaneous doping of the polymer during the polymerisation, the instability of leucoemeraldine form in air and its two-stage oxidation to emeraldine form. The final conductive PANI deposited on Au-SPE will be used as sensor element for the detection of toxic organic compounds.
