A new photosensitive and thermosensitive monomer, namely bis(4-(3-thienyl ethylene)-oxycarbonyl)diazobenzene (TDAZO), was synthesized. The photochemical and thermal cis-trans isomerization of the monomer has been investigated. The rate constants of the photoisomerization of TDAZO in ACN and DCM were 0.195 and 0.308 min(-1), respectively. For spectroelectrochemical investigation and enzyme immobilization application, TDAZO copolymerized with thiophene and pyrrole. Electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical properties of P(TDAZO-co-Th) were investigated and invertase was immobilized in P(TDAZO-co-Py) copolymer. Immobilization of enzymes was carried out by the entrapment of the enzyme in conducting polymer matrices during electrochemical polymerization of pyrrole through thiophene moieties of the TDAZO. Optimum conditions for this electrode, such as pH, temperature, kinetic parameters (K (m) and V (max)) and operational stability were investigated. Kinetic parameters invertase-immobilized in copolymer were smaller than free enzyme. The optimum operational temperature was 10 A degrees C higher for immobilized enzyme than that of the free enzyme. Due to strong interaction between enzyme and diazo group in the polymer main chain, thermal, pH and operational stability of enzyme has been enhanced.

Synthesis and Characterization of Polypyrrole Nanoparticles and Their Nanocomposites with Poly(propylene) Sevil, Baytekin; Zuhal, Kucukyavuz (2009-07-09) Conducting polypyrrole (PPy) nanoparticles were synthesized via microemulsion polymerization. PP/PPy nanocomposites were prepared by melt-mixing of polypyrrole with polypropylene (PP) and processed with injection molding. Tensile tests have revealed that increasing amount of PPy increased the strength and the stiffness of the nanocomposite while limiting the elongation of PP. Thermal gravimetric analysis has showed that incorporation of PPy nanoparticles has improved the thermal stability of the nanocomposi...
Electrochemical Synthesis of a Water-Soluble and Self-Doped Polythiophene Derivative Turac, Ersen; Varol, Ramazan; Ak, Metin; Sahmetlioglu, Ertugrul; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Informa UK Limited, 2008-01-01) A new monomer, 4-(thiophen-3-yl methyleneamino)benzene sulfonate) (ThSA), was synthesized and characterized. Electrochemical polymerization of ThSA yields a water-soluble and self-doped polymer (PThSA). This polymer was characterized by FT-IR, NMR, DSC, XRD and conductivity measurements.

Synthesis of conducting block and graft copolymers with polyether segments Yagci, Y; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Wiley, 2000-07-01) Synthesis of block and graft copolymers containing polyether and conducting polypyrrole sequences were described. Pyrrole moieties were incorporated at the chain ends of polytetrahydrofuran and polysiloxane and at the side chains of polyethyl vinylether by ionic polymerization and appropriate chemical reactions. Subsequent electropolymerization with pyrrole through these moities yielded free standing films of the corresponding block and graft copolymers. The formation copolymers was evidenced by FTIR spectr...
Synthesis of conducting polysiloxane-polypyrrole graft copolymers Gunaydin, O; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Yagci, Y; Harabagiu, V; Pintela, M; Simionescu, BC (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2002-02-01) Polysiloxane-polypyrrole graft copolymers have been synthesized by a series of chemical reactions and subsequent electropolymerization. First, the hydrosilation of 4-vinyl aniline by dimethyl-methylhydrosiloxane copolymer gave the corresponding aminophenyl functional polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS-NH2). The side chain pyrrole functionalized. polysiloxanes were then prepared by the reaction of PDMS-NH2 with glycidylpyrrole. Finally, the synthesis of graft copolymers of polysiloxane and pyrrole has been achieved ...
Synthesis and mesophase properties of block and random co-polymers of electroactive and liquid crystalline monomers Yilmaz, F; Kasapoglu, F; Hepuzer, Y; Yagci, Y; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Fernandes, EG; Galli, G (Informa UK Limited, 2005-01-01) Homo-polymers and random co-polymers of electroactive and liquid crystalline monomers, namely 3-thienylmethyl methacrylate (MTM) and 6-(4-cyanobiphenyl-4'-oxy)hexyl acrylate (LC6), were prepared by conventional free radical polymerization. Block co-polymers of MTM and LC6 were also synthesized by using the 1,1-diphenylethene (DPE) method. The obtained random and block co-polymers exhibited liquid crystal behavior depending on the content of the LC6 units. It was found that microphase separation of the polym...
