Abstract

Films of redox-composited polymers have been grown via vapour transport of heterocyclic monomers onto aqueous solutions of heteropolyacid oxidants. Polypyrrole and poly(N-methylpyrrole) yield black thin film products. Growth of adherent polymer coatings on carbon paper and silk was successfully achieved with the oxidants 12-molybdophosphoric acid, 12-molybdosilicic acid, 10-molybdo-2-vanadophosphoric acid and iron(III) chloride.
