This work reports the electrochemical fabrication of thin films comprising polyaniline nanofibers (PANI) in conjunction with graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) on ITO substrate, along with examining the electrochemical properties, with a focus on the influence of the substrate and electrolyte in the electrodeposition methods. The study explores the electrochemical characteristics of these thin films and establishes a flexible framework for their application in diverse sectors such as sensors, supercapacitors, and electronic devices. It analyzes the impact of the substrate and electrolyte in electrodeposition techniques.

A full factorial design experiment (2) was conducted to study the effect of the cross-flow operating factors on the membrane permeate flux decline and the overall permeate volume. Eleven experimental runs were performed for three important process operating variables: transmembrane pressure (TMP), crossflow velocity (CFV), and filtration time (FT).
