Pyrolysis mass spectrometric analysis of copolymer of polyacrylonitrile and polythiophene
Oğuz, Gülcan; Hacaloğlu, Jale; Department of Polymer Science and Technology (2004)
In the first part of this work, the structural and thermal characteristics of polyacrylonitrile, polyacrylonitrile films treated under the electrolysis conditions in the absence of thiophene, polythiophene and the mechanical mixture and a conducting copolymer of polyacrylonitrile/polythiophene have been studied by pyrolysis mass spectrometry technique. The thermal degradation of polyacrylonitrile occurs in three steps; evolution of HCN, monomer, low molecular weight oligomers due to random chain cleavages a...
Pyrolysis mass spectrometry analysis of BF4 - doped polythiophene
Gozet, Tuba; Hacaloğlu, Jale; Önal, Ahmet Muhtar (2004-06-01)
Pyrolysis of electrochemically prepared BF4- doped polythiophene (PTh) by direct insertion probe and Currie point pyrolysis gas chromatography mass spectrometry techniques indicated that thermal decomposition of PTh occurs in two steps. In accordance with literature results, the first step is assigned to the loss of the dopant, and the second step to the degradation of the polymer backbone producing segments of various conjugation lengths. At elevated temperatures, detection of products such as H2S and C2H2...
Pyrolysis mass spectrometry analysis of electrochemically grafted polyacrylonitrile with thiophene
Oguz, Gulcan; Hacaloğlu, Jale; Önal, Ahmet Muhtar (2005-10-01)
In this work, structural and thermal analyses of a polythiophene/polyacrylonitrile (PTh/PAN) sample, prepared by electrochemical polymerization of thiophene onto a poly(acrylonitrile) coated anode, have been performed by a direct insertion probe pyrolysis mass spectrometry technique. The evolution profiles of PTh based products from PTh/PAN showed nearly identical trends with those recorded during the pyrolysis of pure PTh. However, when PAN based products were considered, contrary to the trends observed fo...
Pyrolysis mass spectrometric analysis of styrene-butadiene block and random copolymers
Hacaloğlu, Jale; Ertugrul, Nergis; Fares, Muhammed M.; Suzer, Sefik (1997-01-01)
rect pyrolysis mass spectrometric analysis of a styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer indicated that thermal decomposition of each block shows a resemblance to the related homopolymer, giving a possibility of differentiation of blocks. However, the random analog, the styrene butadiene rubber, degraded in a manner that is somewhat in between in nature of the thermal characteristics of both homopolymers. This technique shows promise to differentiate thermal behaviors of each sequence in block polymers if ...
