Electrocatalysis Using Electroactive Polymer Films

  • Chapter
Electroactive Polymer Electrochemistry

Abstract

In Chapter 2 we discuss the use of electroactive polymer films in the important area of electrocatalysis. The material presented is also relevant for the quantitative description of the operation of amperometric chemical and biological sensors. In the latter context, the efficient operation of the amperometric sensor depends largely on how readily the polymer layer enhances the rate of substrate oxidation or reduction. This of course is related to electrocatalytic properties of the polymer film.
