Electrochemically induced free solvent transfer in thin poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) films
2015
International audience; In dynamic intrinsically conducting films, counterions transfer and conformational movements stimulated by the electrochemical reactions affect the free water molecules transfer. Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) or PEDOT is included in this category. Here, p-doping of PEDOT immersed in LiClO4 aqueous solution was explored by ac-electrogravimetry. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy combined with mass impedance spectroscopy proves useful for species identification and kinetics. For PEDOT, new equations have been developed to analyze the ac -electrogravimetry response. Quantitatively, faster free water transfer and slower coupled View the MathML sourceClO4−/free wat…
Effects of anion size on the electrochemical behavior of H2SO4-structured poly(o-toluidine) films. An ac-electrogravimetry study in acid solutions
2014
International audience; ac -Electrogravimetry has allowed an easy separation of kinetic information to be evaluated for all the transferred species in three different H2SO4-structured poly(o-toluidine) or POT films, View the MathML sourcePOT-NO3−, View the MathML sourcePOT-ClO4− and POT-Cl− films when they are polarized between the pernigraniline (oxidized) and leucoemeraldine (reduced) forms. It is clear that larger anions slow down the electrochemical transitions of POT films, but the effects of anion transfer on hydrated protons and free solvent transfers are affected. For the same polymeric structure of a POT film, the kinetics of all specie transfers have been evaluated considering the…
