A MnIII-substituted Wells-Dawson-type polyoxoanion, [MnIII 4 (H2O)2(P2W15O56)2] 12− (Mn4(P2W15)2), was surface immobilised within the conducting polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface. The resulting immobilised films were characterised by electrochemical techniques and subjected to a compositional and morphological characterization by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The redox activity of the entrapped Mn4(P2W15)2 was observed within the polymer phase. The conducting polymer films exhibited a pH-dependant redox activity associated with the polyanion Mn4(P2W15)2 and thin layer behaviour up to 100 mVs− 1 with enhanced stability towards redox cycling.

Abstract
A MnIII-substituted Wells-Dawson-type polyoxoanion, [MnIII 4 (H2O)2(P2W15O56)2] 12− (Mn4(P2W15)2), was surface immobilised within the conducting polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface. The resulting immobilised films were characterised by electrochemical techniques and subjected to a compositional and morphological characterization by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The redox activity of the entrapped Mn4(P2W15)2 was observed within the polymer phase. The conducting polymer films exhibited a pH-dependant redox activity associated with the polyanion Mn4(P2W15)2 and thin layer behaviour up to 100 mVs− 1 with enhanced stability towards redox cycling.Pubblicazioni consigliate
