This work is focused on studying the preparation and characterization of two different conducting polymers, polyaniline and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene), on aluminum alloy AA2024-T3. In addition to the direct electrochemical deposition of the conducting polymers onto an untreated aluminum substr...
