Study on Ferrocene Derivatives Diffusion Dynamics in Polymer Electrolyte by Solid-State Voltammetry
The diffusion rates of seven ferrocene derivatives have been estimated in polyelectrolyte PEG . LiClO4 by using non-steady-state chronoamperometry. The D-app of ferrocene derivatives increases with temperature, and the dependency of D-app on temperature obeys the Arrhenius equation. The D-app of ferrocene derivatives decreases with increasing size of electroactive species. The Delta D-app values of D-T>Tm and D-T T-m in the polyelectrolyte. On the other hand, the diffusion behaviour of ferrocene derivatives is qualitatively analyzed by using cyclic voltammetry.
