Conformational changes during the redox switching of electroactive polymers

In this work experimental results published and unpublished, showing conformational changes and swelling of electroactive polymers, in contact with an external electrolyte or during its redox switching, are reported. Thus, voltammetric results showing relaxation effects, both at room temperature and...
