Polypyrrole was prepared by chemical polymerization. Certain fundamental electrochemical performances were investigated. Properties of the batteries were characterized and tested by SEM, galvanostatic charge/discharge tests, cyclic voltammetry (CV), and a.c. impedance spectroscopy. The influences of separator, morphology, and conductivity of PPy anode, cold-molded pressure, and electric current on the performances of the batteries were studied. Using PP/PE/PP membranes as separator, the battery showed good storage stability and cycling property. The conductivity of materials rather than morphology affected the behavior of the battery. The higher the conductivity, the better performances the cells had. Proper cold-molded pressure 20 MPa of the anode pellet would make the properties of the cells good and the fitted charge/discharge current was 0.1 mA. The cells showed excellent performance with 97%-100% coulombic efficiency. The highest discharge capacity of 95.2 mAh/g was obtained.展开更多

The polymerization proceeds efficiently in an acidic solution under atmosphericconditions. Oxygen, chemical and electrochemical oxidations are available. Vanadyl acety-lacetonate and cerium ammonium nitrate act as an effective catalyst for the oxygen ox-idative polymerization. The polymerization mechanism involves multielectron oxidation ofthe sulfides followed by successive electrophilic substitution. The resulting polyarylenesul-fonium cations are useful as a soluble precursor for the synthesis of high molecular weight(M_w>10~5) poly(thio arylne)s.展开更多

The reaction between aniline and MnO2 follows a mechanism by which the organic monomer is oxidized while the metal oxide undergoes reductive dissolution. The effects of the amount of oxidizing agent and aniline, pH and temperature of the reactive system, type of acid on the yield and conductivity of polyaniline are discussed. The resulting polyaniline was characterized by IR and UV-Vis spectrometry. Polyaniline with a conductivity of 12.5 S/cm was obtained using 0.033 mol of aniline oxidized by 0.023 mol MnO2 in the presence of 100 mL of 2.7 mol/L HCl at 25degreesC for 4 h.展开更多

The structures of ThPOPs were confirmed via solid-state 13 C CP/MAS NMR spectroscopy and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The ThPOPs possess high porosities and their high Brunauer-Emmett-Teller specific surface area results vary between 350 and 1320 m^2 g^(-1).

The synthesized Schiff base and its polymer were soluble in alkaline'aqueous medium and they have various colors in different solutions. Also, it can be said that the synthesized compounds are suitable as coloring agent (dyestuff) for textile applications. Fluorescence properties of the compounds were determined in DMF with different concentrations (mg/L). Poly-tris(4- aminophenyl)methanol (P-TAPM) has quite high emission and excitation intensity values. Optical and electrochemical band gaps of the polymers were lower than those of the monomers indicating the more conjugated structure of the polymers. The oxidized states of the novel dyestuff compounds were examined by cyclic voltammetry (CV) technique. The solid state conductivity measurements showed that the synthesized polymers were semiconductors when exposed to the iodine vapour their conductivities could be increased. P-TAPM had the highest undoped conductivity. Thermal characterizations of the synthesized compounds were carried out by TG-DTA and DSC methods.展开更多

The polymer matrix based on amino-terminated hyperbranched polymer(HSP-NH_2) was synthesized by carboxylation, Curtius rearrangement, and amination of hydroxyl-terminated hyperbranched polyester(HP-OH), while the modified graphene oxide was prepared by transformation of hydroxyl to isocyanate and further to carbamate ester. Spectroscopic methods were utilized to characterize the obtained polymer composites. Stress-strain test was selected to carefully study the self-healing property of HSP-GO. It is found that a small amount of modified graphene oxide(up to 2 wt%) improves the glass transition temperature(T_g), tensile strength, Young's modulus, and self-healing efficiency of the polymer composites. After healed at room temperature for 10 min, the addition of modified graphene oxide improves the self-healing efficiency to 37% of its original tensile strength. The experiment result shows that the self-healing efficiency is related to the density of hydrogen bonding site and the molecular movement.展开更多

Morphology of the nanocomposites was studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrosco- py, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray micmanalysis (EDX). The electrochemical properties of nanocomposite based electrodes were in- vestigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge-discharge and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques in 0.5 mol/L Na2SO4. The specific capacitances of 173.00, 127.85, 87.50, 58.65 and 12.00 (mF cm^-2) were obtained for GMMP, GMP (GO-MWCNT-PANI), GMM (GO-MWCNT-MnO2), GM (GO-MWCNT) and G (GO) at a scan rate of 10 mV s^-1, respectively. Also, GMMP nanocomposite re- tained 90% initial capacitance after 200 cycle of charge-discharge. The good electrochemical response of this nanocomposite is due to the combination of the electrical double layer capacitance of GO and MWCNT and the gradual introduction of pseudo-capacitance through the redox processes of PANI, -COOH, -OH (in MWCNT-COOH, GO-COOH and GO-OH) and MnO2. This revealed the synergistic effect of PANI, MnO2, -OH -COOH on the carbon based support.展开更多
