Electrochemical behavior of polyaniline in chloride/citrate electrolyte

Polyaniline electrode, was obtained by electrochemical polymerization at constant current density of 2.0 mA cm-2 from aqueous solution of 1.0 mol dm-3 HCl containing 0.25 mol dm-3 aniline. Electrochemical characterization of the polyaniline electrode in chloride and chloride/citrate electrolyte, for different anodic potential limits, was performed using cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic measurements. It was observed that for anodic potential 0.32 V, higher electrode capacity in chloride/citrate was obtained. For anodic potential limit of 0.50 V, faster decrease of theelectrode capacity in chloride/citrate electrolyte was also observed. It was suggested that influence of both chloride and citrate anions has to be taken into account.Poster: [https://cer.ihtm.bg.ac.rs/handle/123456789/3996
