The understanding of the redox behavior of conducting polymers is essential for a successful application of these so-called synthetic metals as functional coatings. The redox process involves the exchange of ions and solvent molecules. This so called doping/dedoping process involves changes of the mechanical and the electronic structure of the polymer. This paper discusses investigations at poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (PEDOT) and poly(pyrrole) (Ppy) by the electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) technique and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). In the case of PEDOT a determination of the anion and the solvent fluxes was possible, and it was found that most anions replace solvent molecules upon their incorporation. The doping/dedoping mechanism of Ppy is more complicated. Here, the first redox cycles are characterized by a complex interplay of cation, anion and solvent fluxes with irreversible changes of the polymer structure. However, in combination with EIS new insights of the ion and solvent exchange and its influence on the electronic properties can be achieved. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
