Abstract

The voltammetric behaviour of ferrocene-ferricinium ion and quinone-hydroquinone systems is investigated on electrochemically thin film polymer coated electrodes. Ferrocene oxidation is studied in 0.1 M NBu 4 ClO 4-nitromethane on rotating disc platinum electrodes coated with poly(2-hydroxymethyl-1,4-phenylene) oxide (I), poly-(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene) oxide (II), and poly[4-(2-aminoethyl)-1,2-phenylene] oxide (III) films. The quinone-hydroquinone system is investigated in aqueous medium (1 M HClO 4) with (I), (II) and poly-(2-cyano-1,4-phenylene) oxide films. Experimental results are in good agreement with the previously calculated voltammetric curves in steady-state mass transfer conditions. The charge transfer and diffusion parameters on these polymer-coated electrodes are calculated The quinone-hydroquinone system is rendered reversible by coating a platinum electrode with I.
