Abstarct: Poly(1-amino-9,10-anthraquinone) as a conductive polymer has widerange of industrial applications. The electrical and mechanical properties of these polymers can be improved by adding the appropriate additives, during their synthesis. In this work the electropolymerization of 1-amino-9,10-anthraquinone in the presence and absence of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as an additive material in an aqueous solution of sulfuric acid has been studied. The polymer film of poly(1-amino-9,10-anthraquinone) prepared by electrochemical methods including the cyclic voltammetry and the constant potential. Three working electrodes including gold, platinum, and glassy carbon have also been used. Electrochemical behavior of the prepared polymer films was investigated by cyclic voltammetry in a solution of 6.0 M sulfuric acid as an electrolyte carrier, in the absence of monomer. Obtained voltammogram result from prepared polymer films on working electrodes showed that increasing activity of polymers on platinum electrode surface compared to the other electrodes. Also the most appropriate polymers were prepared using the cyclic voltammetry technique. The results show that the rate of electropolymerization of 1-amino-9,10–anthraquinone increased in the presence of SDS. Moerover the electrochemical activity, uniformity and adhesion of polymer films on the electrode surface increasing. Morphology studies of polymer films prepared in the presence of SDS indicated the reduction of particle size of poly(1- amino-9,10-anthraquinone) and a more uniform distribution of the polymer particles in comparison to those polymers prepared in absent of the SDS.
