Electrochemical synthesis of poly( N ‐acetylaniline) (PNAANI)/Nafion composite film was carried out by cyclic voltammetry (CV). Its surface morphology, which was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), revealed that PNAANI was dispersed into the Nafion film uniformly. X‐ray photoelectron spectrum (XPS) of the composite film was also examined. The electroactivity of the composite film was high in neutral and basic solutions, and the stability of PNAANI/Nafion film in neutral and basic solutions was excellent.
