The electrochemical polymerisation is carried out by potentiostatic method using an aqueous solution of 0.1 M aniline and 1M sulphuric acid as electrolyte in a single compartment electrochemical cell with steel electrode for collecting the polymer composite. The redox behaviour and stability of the film are studied by cyclic voltammetry. The morphological and spectroscopic and ac conductivity of the deposited films are studied by impedance spectroscopy ER -
