Book excerpt: Silicones have unique properties including thermal oxidative stability, low temperature flow, high compressibility, low surface tension, hydrophobicity and electric properties. These special properties have encouraged the exploration of alternative synthetic routes of well defined controlled microstructures of silicone copolymers, the subject of this Springer Brief. The authors explore the synthesis and characterization of notable block copolymers. Recent advances in controlled radical polymerization techniques leading to the facile synthesis of well-defined silicon based thermo reversible block copolymers are described along with atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), a technique utilized to develop well-defined functional thermo reversible block copolymers. The brief also focuses on Polyrotaxanes and their great potential as stimulus-responsive materials which produce poly (dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) based thermo reversible block copolymers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BACKGROUND Polysiloxanes have chains constructed of alternately arranged silicon and oxygen atoms with organic groups attached to the silicon atoms. This structure gives them a unique combination of properties that hold great interest for a host of practical applications. Although they have been known and manufactured for many years, their applications continue to expand rapidly and this boosts progress in the generation of new and modified polysiloxanes. Polysiloxanes constitute the oldf'"' known class of silicon-based polymers and the broadest one when viewed in terms of the variety of structures differing in topology and the constitution of organic substituents. There are also many and various types of siloxane copolymers, some of purely siloxane structure and others of siloxane-organic composition. There is no doubt that polysiloxanes are the most technologically important silicon-based polymers. The broad class of model materials known as silicones is based on polysiloxanes. They are also the best known, as most research in the area of silicon polymers has for many years been directed towards the synthesis of new polysiloxanes, to understanding their properties and to extending their applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This and its companion Volume 2 chronicle the proceedings of the First Technical Conference on Polyimides: Synthesis, Char acterization and Applications held under the auspices of the Mid Hudson Section of the Society of Plastics Engineers at Ellenville, New York, November 10-12, 1982. In the last decade or so there has been an accelerated interest in the use of polyimides for a variety of applications in a number of widely differing technologies. The applications of polyimides range from aerospace to microelectronics to medical field, and this is attributed to the fact that polyimides offer certain desirable traits, inter alia, high temperature stability. Polyimides are used as organic insulators, as adhesives, as coat ings, in composites, just to name a few of their uses. Even a casual search of the literature will underscore the importance of this class of materials and the high tempo of R&D activity taking place in the area of polyimides. So it was deemed that a conference on polyimides was both timely and needed. This conference was designed to provide a forum for discussion of various ramifications of polyimides, to bring together scientists and technologists interested in all aspects of polyimides and thus to provide an opportunity for cross-pollination of ideas, and to highlight areas which needed further and intensi fied R&D efforts. If the comments from the attendees are a baro meter of the success of a conference, then this event was highly successful and fulfilled amply its stated objectives.

Book Synthesis and Characterization of Siloles  Silole containing Polymers and Photoswitchable Polymer Brush

Download or read book Synthesis and Characterization of Siloles Silole containing Polymers and Photoswitchable Polymer Brush written by Milind Dhaniram Bisen and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today's world, there is an increasing demand for new and efficient materials to develop future technologies, address the energy crisis, improve the health care system, and in general for the amelioration of our society. There has been substantial ongoing research effort to develop new organic materials for application in electronic devices and alternative energy such as solar cell, and to develop new biomaterials that will provide fast and efficient diagnosis and treatment of diseases. In this dissertation, we report our progress toward the development of new materials with potential for future application as organic electronics and biomaterials. The first part of this dissertation is focused on the method development and synthesis of silole-based small molecules and conjugated polymers. Silole, a silicon analogue of cyclopentadiene is a very interesting molecule due to its unique photo-physical and electronics properties, and a potential candidate for electroluminescent and photo-luminescent based applications. Although the first example of silole has been reported more than 25 year ago, the difficulty in the synthesis of functional siloles diminished the impact of their potential applications. Herein, we report an efficient and feasible synthetic method to synthesize 2,5-reactive siloles. We utilized this method to synthesize silole monomers, which will be applicable for various palladium catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. In cases where the preparation of reactively functionalized siloles were unsuccessful by our method, we were able to accomplish the synthesis in one additional step; nevertheless, our method is still advantageous compare to the other known methods. We have also synthesized silole molecules that can be further functionalized for application as fluorescent sensors. The synthesis and properties of new silole-containing conjugated polymers are described. The polymers were synthesized by the Suzuki, Sonogashira and Stille coupling polymerization. We have studied structure-property relationship of these polymers by exploring their optoelectrical properties. Co-polymers of silole with diketopyrrolopyrrole showed low band gap and low reduction potentials, which are crucial properties in developing n-type materials. We have also fabricated simple photovoltaic device to study photoconductivity, one of the silole-DPP polymer showed fairly high photoconversion efficiency but low current. Further characterization is required to study the conductivity. Silole-containing polymers were also prepared by the direct arylation reaction. The Direct Arylation reaction via C-H bond activation is emerging as a potential alternative to traditional transition metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. We investigated synthetic methods to synthesize silole containing polymers via direct arylation polymerization by screening catalyst, ligand, solvent, temperature and other parameters. Our preliminary results demonstrated the successful copolymerization of 2,5-diarylhalide functionalized silole monomer with various electron accepting benzodiazole scaffolds to give alternating copolymers with low energy band gaps. However, the molecular weights were not optimal, and therefore future work is needed to optimize the reaction conditions in order to obtain higher molecular weight polymers. In the second part of this dissertation, we prepared photo-switchable polymer brush on silicon surfaces. Photoswitchable polymer brushes consisting of N-isopropylacrylamide and photoactive spiropyran moiety were synthesized by Reversible Addition-Fragmentation chain Transfer (RAFT) polymerization method. These brushes reversibly react to external light stimulus by altering their polarity, ionic charge and solubility. In our preliminary study, we have shown that charged species can be adsorbed and release by the brushes with irradiation of UV and visible light, respectively. These polymer brushes can be used for isolation of charged protein/peptides.
