Abstract

The electrogeneration and electrodissolution of poly (SNS) have been improved by using aqueous acetonitrile solutions having a 1% (ν/ν) of water constant. Compact, adherent and thick films (until 0.4 Mg cm-2) were galvanostatically electrogenerated. The electrodeposited (oxidized) polymer is insoluble in 0.1 M L?CIO4 aqueous acetonitrile solution and solubilizes by cathodic reduction. Both, electrogeneration and electrodissolution, are faradaic processes. Those facts mimic electrodeposition and electroerosion of metals and their concomitant industrial applications. New technological possibilities using polymers in electrophotography, electroreprography, electropolishing, electro-erosion and electromachining are open through polymeric electrodissolution altogether to a new processible way, through the obtained solution, for the conducting polymers.
