Comparative Electrochemical Behavior of Poly (3-Aminobenzoic Acid) Films in Conventional and Non-Conventional Solvents

In this work we report the created films of poly derivatives of aniline by using electropolymerization on platinum (Pt) electrode surface in non-aqueous electrolyte (Ethaline). The electropolymerization process of poly (3-amino benzoic acid) was happened in two electrolytes H2SO4 and HClO4 using a chronoamperometry (constant potential) technique for different times (50s, 100s, and 200s). All synthesized conducting polymer films were characterized by using FT-IR. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has been applied to study the morphologies of polymer samples. The electrochemical behaviour of prepared conducting films have studied by cyclic voltammetry. The overall findings shown that use a different electrolyte has led to the produce of various polymeric surface films as shown by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Moreover, the charge consumed during the electropolymerization was calculated with time.
