Abstract: The instant invention pertains to a process to produce an electrically conducting, polymeric article by (a) applying a fluid containing a catalytic, electrically conducting polymer with a metal moiety chemically combined therewith to at least a surface portion of a substrate; (b) drying the fluid to form a coating adhering to at least a surface portion of the substrate; and (c) optionally repeating steps (a) and (b) to attain a desired surface loading.

Abstract: The invention is an article comprising at least partially a catalytic, metal-containing, electrically conducting coordination polymer. In addition, this invention includes a process of manufacturing the article comprising applying a mixture containing a catalytic, metal-containing, electrically conducting coordination polymer to a substrate and drying said fluid to form a coating. This invention also encompasses an electrolytic cell comprising a cell body and a cathode spaced apart from an anode, said anode comprising a catalytic, metal-containing, electrically conducting coordination polymer. Another aspect of this invention is a process for generating reduction-oxidation reaction products comprising electrolyzing a solution in the above described electrolytic cell.
