Abstract

The electrochemical behavior of PEDOT/Ag composite films obtained by chemical deposition of ultrafine Ag particles into the poly-3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (PEDOT) matrix was studied. The film morphology was characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The changes in the mass of the films during the chemical deposition of silver into the polymer structure were evaluated microgravimetrically. The mass of the included metallic silver particles depends on the synthesis time and the initial concentration of silver ions in solution. The cyclic voltammograms (CVs) of PEDOT/Ag films in sodium nitrate solutions and sodium nitrate solutions with additions of chloride ions were studied. The cyclic voltammograms of PEDOT/Ag films in chloride-containing solutions showed the peaks of the oxidation of silver and reduction of the oxidation product, which were absent on the CVs of the starting PEDOT film.
