Modification of electrodes by electronically conductive polymer blends

The electron transfer process is often a limiting factor for overall charge delivery in a polymer film coated on an electrode surface. Our goal was to find a better conducting polymer matrix to explore the enhancement of electron transport. Our solution was to use π-conjugated, electronically conductive polymers as modifiers of electrodes. This research involved the chemical synthesis and electrochemical investigation of poly(3-hexthylthiophene) (P3HT).
