Abstract:

Poly(m-trifluoromethylaniline) (PMTFMA) was synthesized on ITO/glass by using electrochemical method and the effect of different reaction conditions such as scan rate, the concentrations of monomer and sulfuric acid, and cycle times on the PMTFMA was studied. The resulting PMTFMA was characterized by FT-IR and UV-vis spectroscopy. The surface morphology of porous shape was recorded by scanning electronic microscope (SEM). It was found that the color of the polymer can turn from light yellow to yellow reversibly by increasing the applied voltage.
