Formación electroquímica de películas de polipirrol sobre Nitinol a partir de soluciones de ácido sulfosuccínico

ABSTRACT In this work the electrosynthesis of polypyrrole (PPy) on Nitinol from solutions of sulfosuccinic acid (0,25 M) and pyrrole (0,25 M) was studied. The PPy was formed potentiostatically in solutions of pH 1 and 7. As far as we know, this is the first time that the electrodeposition of PPy is carried out in the presence of sulfosuccinic acid. The morphology of the films was studied by scanning electron microscopy images, observing the typical globular shape of PPy. The presence of S was also determined by X-ray dispersive energy (EDX), confirming that the dopant was incorporated into the...
