An easy method to synthesize Pt nanoparticles supported on conductive polymers has been explored. The synthesis was carried out under “soft” conditions, i.e., at low temperatures and without using strong reducing agent. The optimal synthesis conditions have been established. Thus,…

Doped tin dioxide electrodes have been prepared by a standard spray pyrolysis technique. The electrochemical behaviour of these electrodes has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry in sulphuric acid using the Fe2+/Fe3+ redox couple system as test reaction. Oxygen evolution has…

Aniline (ANI) and 2-aminoterephthalic acid (2ATA) copolymers, with different compositions, were prepared by
chemical oxidative polymerization varying the feed ratio. The new materials have been characterized by techniques such
as XPS, FTIR, Raman spectroscopies and thermal analysis. It has been…
