The syntheses of conducting copolymers of thiophene-functionalized polystyrene and pyrrole (PS/PPy) were achieved using p-toluene sulfonic acid (PTSA) as the supporting electrolyte via constant potential electrolysis technique. Characterization of the samples was performed by a combination of techniques: cyclic voliammetry (CV), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning colorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), NMR, and FT-IR analyses. The conductivities were measured by the four-probe technique.

Sahin, E; Camurlu, P; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Mercore, VM; Cianga, I; Yagci, Y (Elsevier BV, 2005-06-01)
Thiophene capped polystyrenes (TCP1, TCP2) were synthesized by atom transfer radical polymerization of styrene followed by Suzuki condensation with 2-thiophene boronic acid. Electrically conducting graft polymers of TCP1 and TCP2 with thiophene were achieved by electrochemical methods. Characterization of the graft polymers were performed by cyclic voltammetry (CV), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, scanning electron microscopy analyses. Electrochromic properties of...
Gas sensing property of a conducting copolymer
Ak, Metin; Yigitsoy, Basak; Yagci, Yusuf; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2007-05-02)
A bifunctional amido thiophene, namely hexamethylene (bis-3-thiophene acetamide) (HMTA) was synthesized and its copolymer with pyrrole was electrochemically prepared in water/ PTSA solvent/ electrolyte medium. Sensory behavior of this copolymer against ammonia, methanol, dichloromethane (DCM) and n-hexane vapors was investigated. The methanol vapor, which can form hydrogen bonds with the polar groups on the copolymer surface, showed the maximum response. DCM, which is less polar, yielded relatively lower re...
Synthesis and polymerization of 2-and 3-substituted thiophene derivatives linked by polyether bridges
Tirkeş, Süha; Önal, Ahmet Muhtar (Elsevier BV, 2004-11-15)
New compounds consisting of 2- and 3-thienyl units linked by polyether bridges have been synthesized and their electrochemical polymerization was performed via constant potential electrolysis (CPE) in an electrolytic solution containing 0.1 M tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate (TBAPF(6)) dissolved in CH3CN. 2-Thienyl monomers (I and II), but not 3-thienyl monomers (III and IV), were also polymerized via chemical oxidation, which yielded broken pi-conjugated polymer products. The polymers were characteri...
Conducting Polymer Composites of Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube Filled Doped Polyaniline
Yilmaz, Faris; Kucukyavuz, Zuhal (Wiley, 2009-01-15)
A multiwalled carbon nanotube (c-MWNT)/polyaniline (PANI) composite was synthesized by an in situ chemical oxidative polymerization process. With the carbon nanotube loading increased from 0 to 30 wt %,, the conductivity also increased and became weakly temperature-dependent. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy studies showed that the synthesis by an in situ process led to effective site-selective interactions between the quinoid ring of the PANI and the multiwalled nanotubes, facilitating charge-transf...
Preparation of PLZT thin films by chemical solution deposition and their characterization
Kaplan, Burkan; Özenbaş, Ahmet Macit; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2005)
In this study, La3+ was substituted into lead zirconate titanate (PZT) system by Pb1-xLax(ZryTi1-y)1-x/4O3 nominal stochiometry and it was processed via chemical solution deposition on (111)-Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si-(100) substrate.PLZT solutions were prepared by mixing two solutions, one of which was obtained by dissolving lead acetate and lanthanum acetate hydrate in 2 methoxyethanol at high temperature. This solution was then mixed with the second solution containing zirconium propoxide and titanium isopropoxide. 4...
