To know more understanding on the parameters effecting electrocopolymerization of aniline, atheoretical study of electrochemical behaviour had been performed through cyclic voltammetry at theplatinum electrode through controlled potential electrocopolymerization (CPE) in 0.01 M LiClO4 solutionat a scan rate of 50 mV s-1. It is observed that parameters in the presence of additive (perchloric acid)and selective solvent-electrolyte pair parameters affect the morphology, stability and solubility of thecopolymer matrix. The morphological structure analysis exhibits nano-structured polydispersitycharacterized by a scanning electron microscope.
