Abstract The methods of silicotungstic acid (SiW) immobilization on conducting substrates were studied. For SiW immobilization by codeposition, poly-o-phenylenediamine (PPD) redox polymer was used. The most effective codeposition of SiW and PPD was demonstrated on a graphene oxide (GO) film. Meanwhile, GO is reduced to form RGO-PPD-SiW electroactive composite. The structure of the novel material was evidenced by cyclic voltammetry and IR and Raman spectra. PPD-SiW and RGO-PPD-SiW composites were studied by impedance spectroscopy, where an equivalent circuit was proposed. Film resistance Rf was shown to decrease in the series of PPD → RGO-PPD → RGO-PPD-SiW. Further, RGO-PPD-SiW has better transfer properties (bulk film diffusion rate). This enabled suggesting that the composite has better electrocatalytic properties than PPD and RGO-PPD as was evidenced for example of [Fe(CN)6]4−/3− redox transfer on the electrode coated with the novel material. Keywords Silicotungstic acid . Graphene oxide . Poly-o-phenylenediamine . Modification

Introduction Due to their various properties, polynuclear metal oxide complexes (polyoxometalates or POMs) draw attention of experts in a wide range of sciences and applications. POMs are used in catalysts, photochemistry, material science, and medicine [1–3]. Heteropolyacids (HPAs) can be considered a POM subclass. For example, a silicotungstic acid (SiW)-based composite takes part in photocatalytic decomposition of methyl orange [4] and can be used for decomposition of some organic impurities to purify water. A range of POMs in nanomolar quantities can inhibit CK2 specific kinase protein, which enzyme is highly active in some cancer diseases [3]. The unique behavior of POM is its capacity of accepting up to 24 electrons

per one cluster [5]. Along with other properties, this determined numerous POM applications. It was especially interesting to use POMs as redox mediators (RМ), which take a key part in acceleration of electrochemical reactions [6], for example, in electrocatalysis, energy accumulation, and conversion systems (rechargeable batteries and supercapacitors), and in the sensors detecting biologically active substances. So a great attention is paid to both experimental and theoretical studies of RM influence to the electrochemical systems making
