Abstract
The electrochemical behaviour of stainless steel electrode in 0.1 M sodium saccharinate solution in the absence and the presence of the monomer were investigated using several electrochemical techniques such as cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic and potentiostatic. The XPS analysis was used to study the elementary composition of the obtained polymer and to estimate the doping level of the PPy obtained under this electrolytic conditions. Moreover, the characterization of the coating was achieved by SEM, IR and Raman. In this context, samples of PPy in oxidized and reduced state synthesized galvanostatically on stainless steel grid were used to investigate the behaviour of the polymer toward acetone vapor.
