Polyaniline films were synthesized using the electropolymerization method to produce a conductive layer as an electrode for metal electrodeposition. The layer was characterized using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). According to the SEM micrograph, morphological characteristics of polyaniline films included cross-linking and crevices with 0.2 μm diameter. The electropolymerized films were successfully used as a substrate for NiCo alloy electrodeposition.
