Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, a variety of functional materials and surfaces such as gradient polymer brushes, site-selectively modified beads, conducting polymer fibers, and conducting polymer capacitors, were successfully developed by using potential gradients generated on wireless bipolar electrodes, which are driven by an external electric field in a low concentration of supporting electrolytes. Alternating current (AC) voltage application was found to be effective to prepare conducting polymer fibers in this bipolar electrode system. This bipolar methodology would be a powerful tool for fabricating functional materials relating to redox chemistry.
