Electrode modification by diazonium chemistry : studies on the effect of steric bulk on film thickness, and modified activated carbon cloths for energy storage by Subrata, Arnold

“…GC–TMA), using the precursor to the diazonium salt, 2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine (TMPD). Chapter 2 focuses on the formation of GC–TMA and its extensive characterization using electrochemical and spectroscopic techniques, with the aim of addressing the above problem of multilayer formation since TMPD bears a fully substituted aryl ring, thus preventing the multilayer-forming side reactions due to steric hindrance. …”
