Synthesis and Characterization of PEDOT-Tos Films

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We synthesized the PEDOT-Tos in the following way; 50 µL of 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT, Aldrich, Saint Louis, MO, USA) was added to a solution of iron(III) p-toluenesulfonate hexahydrate (Aldrich, Saint Louis, USA) with different concentrations (1, 10, 20, 40, 60, and 80 wt % with respect to n-butanol) in 1 mL of n-butanol. The prepared solutions were coated on a glass substrate by spin-coating at 1000 rpm for 30 s; in situ polymerization and doping were performed at 100 °C for 5 min. The PEDOT-Tos films were washed in n-butanol several times to remove residual iron species as by-products. Powders of PEDOT-Tos were prepared by the same synthesis method as above and centrifuged in n-butanol to remove by-products and solvent.

In Situ Polymerization of Polythiophene Films

The in situ polymerization was
performed by spin coating the metastable reaction mixture of 2,2′-bithiophene
(Alfa Aesar) and iron(III) p-toluenesulfonate hexahydrate
(Aldrich) in 1-propanol (synthesis grade, Roth). The precleaned glass
substrates were coated with thin layers of polypropylene (Aldrich)
by spin coating from 1-chlorobenzene (synthesis grade, Roth) to increase
the adhesion of the polythiophene films during the posttreatment steps.
All chemicals involved were used without further purification. The
metastable reaction mixture was spin coated with 2000 rpm for 60 s
at a substrate temperature of 90 °C. Afterwards, the films were
rinsed in either acetonitrile (doped polythiophene films) or ethanol
(undoped polythiophene) for 30 min. Finally, the undoped PT films
were annealed at 200 °C for 10 min in ambient atmosphere. For
each experiment, the sum of the molar concentrations of PT and FeTos
in the reaction mixture was kept constant upon variation of the ratio
between them. Nevertheless, the overall concentration was set to match
the resulting thickness required for each experimental method.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
