Abstract
Conducting polymer grafts of pyrrole and poly[(methyl methacrylate)-co-(2-
(N-pyrrolyl) ethyl methacrylate)] containing 0.7% PEMA units were prepared
by potentiostatic anodic polymerization of pyrrole in different electrolytic
media. Grafting between copolymer and pyrrole was achieved in media where
tetrabutylammonium fluoroborate and sodium perchlorate were used as the
supporting electrolytes. Characterizations were made by using IT-IR, DSC,
TGA, SEM, CV, and elemental analysis. The conductivities of the resultant
polymers seemed to be in the order of pure polypyrrole prepared under the
same conditions. Copyright o 1997 Elsevier Science
