Abstract:
A simple commercial polyester polymer membrane has been found to exhibit an
intense electrochromic effect. Most polymers which undergo electrochromic
effects contain either transition metals or extensive conjugated systems. We
have found that a simple commercial polyester membrane when coated with gold and
polarised to −4 V (versus Ag) in aprotic organic solvents displays an
electrochromic colour change from a colourless to an intense red stat
