Abstract

Abstract This study investigates potentiodynamic synthesis of polyaniline (PANI) using pencil graphite electrodes (PGEs), aiming to elucidate deposition mechanisms under simple experimental conditions. By exploring PANI electrosynthesis through electrochemical, spectroscopic, and computational approaches, valuable insights into the physicochemical aspects of aniline polymerization are gained. The proposed synthetic method was challenged for the development of a new molecularly imprinted polymer for chloramphenicol on the surface of PGEs to obtain an innovative impedimetric sensor. The sensing platform shows a linear response in the target concentration range between 0.1 and 17.5 nM, in aqueous solutions, with a limit of detection of 0.03 nM and a limit of quantification of 0.09 nM. The results obtained suggest that the synthesis method proposed provide a way to obtain stable and electroactive polyaniline film with huge potential application.
