Abstract
Electrochemical characteristics of poly‐3‐methylthiophene have been investigated in liquid electrolyte. This polymer was electropolymerized on smooth platinum rods and cycled between 2.0 and 4.0V relative to lithium. The polymer showed a 2.57V reduction wave (due to reduction) and oxidation at 3.55V. Use of poly‐3‐methylthiophene as a cathode substrate during discharge is therefore of interest to rechargeable cell technology since it readily reduces on its surface and allows discharge products to become oxidized at low charging potentials.
