Conductive polymers: Their preparations and catalyses on NADH oxidation at carbon cloth electrodes
This study has made comparison to five such polymers viz. poly (methylene green), poly aniline (PANI), poly (ortho-phenylene diamine) (PoPD), poly (4-vinylpyridine) and poly pyrrole in terms of their preparations and capacities to improve the oxidation of NADH. Cyclic voltammogram showed that all...

| Summary: | This study has made comparison to five such polymers viz. poly (methylene green), poly
aniline (PANI), poly (ortho-phenylene diamine) (PoPD), poly (4-vinylpyridine) and poly pyrrole in
terms of their preparations and capacities to improve the oxidation of NADH. Cyclic voltammogram
showed that all the electrode processes involved in the preparation of the polymers on the carbon
cloth electrode are diffusion-controlled. The oxidation of NADH was enhanced when mediated
by PANI and PoPD. A fast heterogeneous electron transfer was shown through the increase in anodic
peak current together with a decrease in the cathodic peak current. |
