Download or read book Synthesis of Conjugated Polymers with Alternating Aromatic and Quinonoid Sequences Via Elimination on Precursors written by Samson A. Jenekhe and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An elimination reaction for the formation of conjugated polymers from polymer precursors containing alternating sp superscript 3 carbon atom and conjugatged segments in the main chain is described. The resulting conjugated polymers with alternating aromatic and quinonoid sequences are inaccessible by conventional polymerization processes. The Pi-electron conjugation extension process is exemplified by reactions performed on poly(5,5', alpha-bithiophenediyl p acetoxybenzylidene) at 23 C and followed by electronic and infrared spectra. The semiconductor band gap narrowed from an initial value of 1.53 ev for the precursor polymer to about 0.83 ev for the conjugated derivative. Further evidence for the sp superscript 3 to sp superscript 2 carbon atom conversion by the elimination process is provided by infrared data.
Download or read book Synthesis of Conjugated Polymers Via Polymer Elimination Reactions written by Samson A. Jenekhe and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transformation of nonconjugated polymers into conjugated polymers using elimination reactions is described. Heterocyclic conjugated polymers containing alternating aromatic and quinonoid sections in the main chain are synthesized by chemical or electrochemical redox elimination reaction on soluble precursor polymers containing sp3 carbon atom bridges between the aromatic heterocyclic units. Progress of the redox elimination process is followed by infrared and electronic spectra as well as by cyclic voltammetry. A reaction mechanism in which the precursor polymer undergoes a redox reaction followed by loss of the bridge hydrogens is proposed. The resulting conjugated aromatic/quinonoid polymers generally have very small semiconductor band gaps in accord with predictions of recent theoretical calculations. A brief view of related syntheses of conjugated polymers from nonconjugated precursor polymers is also given.

Download or read book Organic Photovoltaics written by Sam-Shajing Sun and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 682 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently developed organic photovoltaics (OPVs) show distinct advantages over their inorganic counterparts due to their lighter weight, flexible shape, versatile materials synthesis and device fabrication schemes, and low cost in large-scale industrial production. Although many books currently exist on general concepts of PV and inorganic PV materials and devices, few are available that offer a comprehensive overview of recently fast developing organic and polymeric PV materials and devices. Organic Photovoltaics: Mechanisms, Materials, and Devices fills this gap. The book provides an international perspective on the latest research in this rapidly expanding field with contributions from top experts around the world. It presents a unified approach comprising three sections: General Overviews; Mechanisms and Modeling; and Materials and Devices. Discussions include sunlight capture, exciton diffusion and dissociation, interface properties, charge recombination and migration, and a variety of currently developing OPV materials/devices. The book also includes two forewords: one by Nobel Laureate Dr. Alan J. Heeger, and the other by Drs. Aloysius Hepp and Sheila Bailey of NASA Glenn Research Center. Organic Photovoltaics equips students, researchers, and engineers with knowledge of the mechanisms, materials, devices, and applications of OPVs necessary to develop cheaper, lighter, and cleaner renewable energy throughout the coming decades.

Download or read book Alternating Copolymers written by J.M.G. Cowie and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examination of the early literature attests to the fact that the study of copolymerization was initiated when polymer science was in its infancy. It has continued to grow to a subject of major importance and has been a source of interest to both academic and industrialist alike. The wide spectrum of structures and properties available in the statistical copolymer has made this a fruitful field of exploration, but one particular and more restricted form which has held its own fascination for many is the limiting case of the strictly alternating copolymer. This is formed, in the ideal situation, when two monomers in a reaction mixture add consecutively to create a polymer chain with a regular {ABABAB} structure, irrespective of the monomer feed ratio. When this happens the resulting copolymer will always have the same composition, a feature which can be advantageous but also somewhat restrictive, as the ability to vary the properties is then limited. Within a series entitled Speciality Polymers it seems appropriate then to deal with this subject, particularly as no previous attempt has been made to draw together the various facets of alternating copolymerization into one volume. It also seems timely to present a more unified picture of the subject which will also illustrate the progress made.
