The mass change by the ion behavior in the redox process of the PPy/PE composite was concerned mainly by the cation, but the insertiodexpulsion of the mono-anion (c104 ) in solution into/from the PPy composite occurred in order to combine/dssociate with the oxidizedreduced PPy in the redox process of the PPy/PE composite when the electroactivity of the PPy was considerable. In the higher sweep rate of the potential, the mass change by the insertiodexpulsion decreased for lower ion mobility and increased for higher ion mobility into/from the PPy composite. The electroactivity of the PPy composite decreased with increasing the temperature. The mass of the PPy/P(AAm/AMPS) was linearly decreased with increasing the temperature, but the slope of the mass decrease of the PPy/P(NiPAAm/AMPS) was changed. The temperature at which the slope change in the mass decrease of the PPy/P(NiPAAm /AMPS) was different in the oxidized and reduced PPy due to the combinatioddissociation of the PPy and poly -anionic dopant (AMPS). From these results, we note that the PPy composite synthesized by the copolymer of the water soluble polymer and the small portion of electrolyte has the considerable electroactivity and the PPy composite synthesized by the themally sensitive polymer and polyelectrolyte copolymer has not only the thermal sensitivity but also the current sensitivity.
