Abstract

The polymerization of aniline has been studied employing in-situ electrochemical and Raman spectroscopical techniques. Aniline was polymerized by cyclic voltammetry on a Pt surface in sulfuric acid solutions of aniline. The Raman bands were assigned for degradation products of the overoxidized form of polyaniline. A discussion of the degradation mechanism is given.
