ELECTROACTIVITY CHANGE OF ELECTROPOLYMERIZED POLYPYRROLE POLYSTYRENESULFONATE COMPOSITE FILM IN SOME ORGANIC ELECTROLYTES

Electroactivity of polypyrrole/polystyrenesulfonate composite film obtained from an aqueous solution was examined in various organic electrolytes. The composite film worked like electroinactive film in electrolyte using propylene carbonate or some solvents except in the case of DMF or DMSO electrolytes, however, the film changed from electroinactive to electroactive even in propylene carbonate and some organic electrolytes after an electrochemical potential application to the film while in DMF or DMSO electrolytes.
