Polyacetylene electrode kinetics

Although the diffusion of the counterion is faster in polypyrrole than in polyacetylene, its value is still low enough to influence the rate of the electrochemical charge and discharge processes of lithium/polymer batteries. Indeed the current output of these batteries is generally confined to a few mA cm . Possibly, improvements in the electrode kinetics, and thus in the battery rates, may be obtained by the replacement of standard ...
