Özet

In this study; poly (o-amino benzyl alcohol) and poly (o-amino benzyl alcohol-co-o-anisidine) copolymer films were electrochemically synthesized by cyclic voltammetry technique on the platinum electrode. The synthesis of copolymer films was achieved in various monomers feed ratio (o-amino benzyl alcohol: o-anisidine; 8:2, 1:1, 2:8) of o-amino benzyl alcohol and o-anisidine. Different solution types were tested in aqueous and non-aqueous media, especially during the synthesis process, as the electrolyte medium. As a result of the experiments, it was determined that sulfuric acid solution was the most suitable solution for both homopolymer and copolymer film growth. Homopolymer and copolymer samples were characterized by FT-IR, cyclic voltammetry (CV), SEM, digital images and TGA/DTA techniques. The CV, SEM and digital images results indicated that the solution which has high ratio of monomer is more effective in copolymer film synthesis mechanism. TGA results showed that the 1:1 copolymer film had higher thermal stability than the films at other monomer ratios. Also, electrochemical studies exhibited that the copolymer film in 1:1 ratio is partially more electrochemically stable than other copolymer films.
