Abstract

This present work deals with the formation of polyparaphenylene (PPP) electrodes in which the polymer is associated with conductive carbons. Regular and reproducible coatings of PPP on different types of carbon electrodes were obtained by catalytic electrosynthesis (Fauvarque method) and were examined by electron microscopy. Electrochemical properties of PPP, coated on conductive carbons, were studied in sulfolane-NBu4BF4 electrolyte. Coatings on carbon lead to a good cyclability and a high apparent current density (as high as 2 mA/cm2). Key words : conductive polymers, polyparaphenylene, electrolytic coating.
