Electrochemical Synthesis of composite 4-methyl pyridine, aniline as Conducting Polymer by Galvanostatic Method

Physics

Abstract Polymer films will prepared by galvanostatic electrochemical synthesis, which provides a constant oxidative current at the anode. The electrochemical deposition of monomer and their copolymer films was carried out by using a galvanostatic technique at temperature 27 °C in a one-compartment, three-electrode glass cell. The ITO coated glass plate will have to use as a working electrode, platinum foil as a counter electrode and Ag/AgCl as a reference electrode. The electrolyte solution will prepare in deionized water with optimum parameter. After synthesis the polymer coated electrodes will rinsed thoroughly in deionized water dried in cold air and then used for subsequent characterization. The synthesized composite films will subjected to various characterizations viz. galvanostatic electrochemical techniques. The FTIR, SEM, X-RD etc methods use for characterization. The electrochemical, electrical, optical and morphological properties of composite 4-methyl pyridine and HCL ( supporting electrolyte ) at 1 mA/cm2 current density and pH 3.0 have been successfully studied. The characterization study reveals that the composite 4-methyl pyridine, aniline film provide uniform, porous and stable polymer matrix which is suitable for immobilization of bio component.. The composite 4-methyl pyridine, aniline film shows highest conductivity 2.412 x10-3 S/cm. with lower polymerization potential. The FTIR spectra of composite 4-methyl pyridine and aniline confirm the presence of organic groups as well as occurrence N-H.
