Resumen
The bioinspired polymer polydopamine is synthesized and deposited on semiconductive glass substrates under different synthesis conditions (pH and oxidant type). Electrochemical methods are used to verify polymer deposition on the substrate and to examine the charge transfer properties of the obtained coatings. The presence of aromatic rings from the polymer is assessed by Raman spectroscopy. The experiment was designed to fit within a physical chemistry course and can also be suitable for courses on polymers, materials science, and electrochemistry.
