Abstract

ABSTRACTPolypyrrole deposited on titanium mesh (PPy–TiM) was fabricated via a galvanostatic method with titanium mesh as the substrate to electrochemically deposit polypyrrole (PPy) doped with p‐toluene sulfonate anions. The influence of the deposition time on the characteristics of the PPy–TiM samples was investigated. Then, semitransparent flexible electrochemical capacitors were assembled with the optimal samples of PPy–TiM as electrodes and H3PO4–poly(vinyl alcohol) as the gel electrolyte. The testing results show that PPy in the optimal PPy–TiM electrode had a specific capacitance of about 326 F/g, and the capacitance of the assembled cells still remained unchanged or up even after 20,000 cycles. Just as expected, the cells possessed semitransparent and good flexibility, and three cells connected in series could drive an LED device. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci., 2017
