Abstract
Abstract The electropolymerization of 2,6-xylenol, known to yield an adherent polymer film on Pt electrodes, has been studied by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The composition, thickness and coverage of the film have been determined from XPS results as a function of the potential applied to the electrode. The growth mode of this polymer film consists of the formation of a monolayer followed by thickening of the film.
