Polymer Films Containing Metal Particles- Nobel Metals in Polyaniline

The incorporation of metals in organic conducting films by electroless precipitation is demonstrated for palladium on electropolymerized polyaniline films at various oxidation states. A comparative analysis of the electrocatalytic activity of the so-prepared modified electrodes with the pristine polymer is presented and the results obtained in hydroorganic media indicate that they are promising materials for the catalytic electrohydrogenation of organic compounds.
