Abstract

A composite of two conducting polymers, polyaniline and polypyrrole, could result in much improved physical properties with respect to their applications in pH electrodes and conducting paints/coatings. However, the composite has time dependant properties that made the use of dynamic computational algorithms necessary to control its behaviour. We used a sandwich-modified electrode as a pH-sensing electrode, which was integrated with a pre-trained computer for data processing and knowledge discovery. Conducting polypyrrole/polyaniline colloidal composites have been also prepared by deposition of the mixture solution of polypyrrole and polyaniline at negative potentials. Different substrates were dipped in the solution containing the mixture together with an acrylic latex and after drying the adhesive strength and electroactivity of the paint were studied. Several colloidal composite based coatings were investigated. At last a computer facilitated with powerful artificial ncural network based algorithms classified the paints.
