title: Modeling potentiometric sensitivity of conducting polymers.
abstract: The influence of different polymerization conditions and electrochemical processes provoked by soaking on the potentiometric sensitivity of conducting polymer films is discussed. Poly(pyrrole) doped with hexacyanoferrate(II) is selected as a model polymer. It is shown that, depending on the conditions applied during film deposition and soaking, either anionic or cationic potentiometric responses can be observed and related to the composition of the film. The potentiometric sensitivity of the conducting polymer films is analyzed and interpreted by means of generalized theoretical schema.
