Electrochemically obtained polyacrylonitrile and a commercial polyacrylonitrile were heat treated to improve their conductivities. The parameters chosen for heat treatment conditions were the temperature, treatment medium (vacuum or air) and, doping agent. The conductivity of all heat treated polymers was measured. The characterization of the heat treated polymers was made by IR analysis. The composite films of polyacrylonitrile with polypyyrole and polythiophene were electrochemically prepared at different compositions. The change in the conductivity of composites was analyzed as a function of the percent composition of the insulating component. IR, DSC, TGA and SEM analyses were used to characterize the polymer composites.

Electronic properties of polypyrrole polyindene composite metal junctions Bozkurt, A; Ercelebi, C; Toppare, Levent Kamil (1997-04-15) Junction properties between conducting polymer composites of polypyrrole/polyindene (PPy/PIn) with different conductivities and metals like Pt, Au, Al and In have been investigated. Rectifying junctions were observed for low work function metals, In and Al; however, high work function metals, Pt and Au, were observed to form ohmic contacts to PPy/PIn composite in the sandwich geometry. The rectifying behavior of the metal/composite/Pt junctions improved when the conductivity of the composite was decreased f...
Mechanical properties of conducting H-type polysiloxane-polypyrrole graft copolymers and polytetrahydrofuran-polypyrrole block copolymers Biran, C; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Tincer, T; Yagci, Y; Harabagiu, V (2002-11-14) The mechanical properties of block copolymers of polypyrrole and pyrrolyl-ended azobis-polytetrahydrofuran (TPPy) and graft copolymers of pyrrolyl-ended H-type polydimethylsiloxane (SPPy) were investigated and compared with those of polypyrrole (PPy), Conducting films were prepared electrochemically at a constant potential and doped with p-toluene sulfonate.

Ternary nanocomposites of high density, linear low density and low density polyethylenes Uçar, Egemen; Yılmazer, Ülkü; Department of Polymer Science and Technology (2007) In this study, the effects of organoclay loading, compatibilizer loading and polyethylene type on the morphology, rheology, thermal properties and mechanical properties of polyethylene/compatibilizer/organoclay nanocomposites were investigated. As compatibilizer, terpolymer of ethylene-methacrylate-glycidyl methacrylate (Lotader® AX8900), as organoclay Cloisite® 15A were used. All samples were prepared by a co-rotating twin screw extruder, followed by injection molding. Considering ternary nanocomposites, h...
Conducting polymer composites of polypyrrole and polyindene Bozkurt, A; Akbulut, Ural; Toppare, Levent Kamil (1996-08-30) Polypyrrole-polyindene composites were prepared via electrochemical methods. Two different approaches were utilized. In the first, the electro-initiated polymerization of indene on a platinum electrode was achieved at 2.0 V versus Ag/Ag+ in acetonitrile. Then the polyindene-coated electrode was used for the electrochemical polymerization of pyrrole at 1.0 V versus Ag/Ag+. In the second case, electrochemical coating of platinum electrode with polypyrrole at 1.0 V versus Ag/Ag+ was carried out and indene was ...
Electrical transport, optical and thermal properties of polyaniline-pumice composites YILMAZ, KORAY; Akgoz, A.; Cabuk, M.; Karaagac, H.; KARABULUT, ORHAN; YAVUZ, Mustafa (2011-11-01) In this study, electrical conductivity, photoconductivity, absorbance and thermal properties of polyaniline (PANI) and polyaniline-pumice composites were investigated. Temperature dependent conductivity and photoconductivity measurements were carried out in the temperature range of 80-400K. The measurements revealed that the dominant conduction mechanisms in polyaniline and 15% pumice doped composite were hopping conduction. The low activation energies calculated for 36% pumice doped composite indicated tha...
