Abstract EN

Poly thiophene and its derivatives are important conductive polymers because of their wide applications.

They were polymerized by chemical and electrochemical methods.

In this paper, thiophene-2-carbaldehyde was polymerized by hydrochloric acid as a catalyst in alcohol as a solvent.

The resulting polymer was characterized by (FT/IR, 1 H-NMR, EDX, and XPS) to determine the polymer structure.

The resulting polymer was scanned by scanning electron microscope (SEM) for its morphological properties.

We found the polymer consisting of spherical particles with a rough surface (average diameters of 127 nanometers) that clump together and form clusters
