A series of reversible photochromic nanocomposite films were prepared by entrapping phosphotungstic acid (PWA) and molybdenumphsophoric acid (PMoA) into P(VP-BVA), which was a crosslinked polymer based on N-vinylpyrrolidone (VP) and bisvinyl-A (BVA). The microstructure, photochromic behavior and mechanism of the films were studied with transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), ultraviolet-visible spectra (UV-vis) and electron resonance spectra (ESR). The TEM image showed that the polyoxometalates particles had regular microstructure with narrow size distribution (average diameter of 30 nm) in hybrid films. FT-IR results showed that the Keggin geometry of polyoxometalates (POM) was still preserved inside the composites and strong coulombic interaction between POM and crosslinked polymer matrix was built. Irradiated with ultraviolet light, the transparent films changed from colorless to blue and showed reversible photochromism. Oxygen plays an important role during the bleaching process. PMoA/P(VP-BVA) film had higher photochromic efficiency and slower bleaching reaction than PWA/P(VP-BVA) film. The characteristic signals of W (V) or Mo (V) in ESR spectra indicated that electron transfer occurred between the organic substrates and heteropolyanions under UV irradiation, which induced heteropolyanions to heteropolybules with simultaneous oxidation of the organic substrates. 相似文献

Novel organic–inorganic layer-by-layer (LbL) multilayers for visible-light phototropy, comprised of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and phosphomolybdic acid (PMoA), were fabricated via layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly with ultrasonic pretreatment. The characterizations revealed that the Keggin spatial geometry of the PMoA was still maintained in the final ultrasonic-assisted LbL thin films, which promoted halogenesis between the PVP and PMoA. Intriguingly, instead of destroying the PVP thin film, the ultrasonic pretreatment process successfully dispersed the PMoA in the PVP thin film with a median size of approximately 3.6 nm. Thanks to the dispersion of the PMoA particles, the photochromic capabilities of the ultrasonic-assisted PVP/PMoA LbL thin films gained remarkable improvement. Moreover, decreasing the size of the PMoA particles to quantum dots (10–3.4 nm) induces an up-conversion and dielectric confinement effect, which increases the intensity of the absorption peak (0.235 increased to 0.45) while narrowing the emission energy (2.51 eV narrowed to 2.23 eV). At the same time, the size reduction also extended the range of the absorption wavelength, increases the characteristic absorption intensity, and accelerates the coloration rate over the same illumination period. 相似文献

TiO 2 nanotube arrays were prepared by means of an electrochemical anodization technique in an organic electrolyte solution doped with polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) and were subsequently modified with phosphomolybdic acid (PMoA) to obtain PMoA/TiO 2 nanotube arrays. The microstructure and photochromic properties were investigated via X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy (UV–vis), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results indicated that the Keggin structure of PMoA and the nanotube structure of TiO 2 were not destroyed, and there was a strong degree of interaction between PMoA and TiO 2 at the biphasic interface with lattice interlacing during the compositing process. The XPS results further indicated that there was a change in the chemical microenvironment during the formation process of the composite, and a new charge transfer bridge was formed through the Mo-O-Ti bond. Under visible light irradiation, the colorless PMoA/TiO 2 nanotube array quickly turned blue and exhibited a photochromic response together with reversible photochromism in the presence of H 2O 2. After visible light irradiation for 60 s, the appearance of Mo 5+ species in the XPS spectra indicated a photoreduction process in accordance with a photoinduced electron transfer mechanism. 相似文献

A series of inorganic-organic thin films based on uniformly dispersed nanoparticles of polyoxometalates (POM)entrapped in polyacrylamide (PAM) matrix were prepared by ultrasonic method with different irradiation time.The microstructure, photochromic behavior and mechanism of the films were studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), ultraviolet-visible spectra (UV-VIS) and Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR).The microstructure and photochromic properties of the hybrid thin films could be controlled by ultrasound.TEM image revealed that the average size of phosphotungstic acid (PWA) nanoparticles decreased from 20 to 10 nm with the ultrasound irradiation time from 30 to 60 min. After irradiated with ultraviolet light,the transparent films changed from colorless to blue and showed reversible photochromism. The hybrid film, with ultrasound irradiation for 60 min had higher photochromic efficiency and faster bleaching reaction than the one with ultrasound irradiation for 30 min. FT-IR spectra showed that the Keggin geometry of heteropolyoxometalate was still preserved inside the composites, and the interactions between polyanions and polymer matrix increased as the ultrasound time prolonged. It is suggested that the mechanism of the different photochromic properties for the inorganic-organic thin films is the variation of the microstructure and interfacial interactions induced by ultrasound. 相似文献

In the present study, we demonstrated that fluorescent dyes could be nanoscopically dispersed in a polymer matrix that was immiscible with the dyes; the dyes were encapsulated in micelles. Using a model polymer composite, we also showed that the color of light emitted by light-emitting diodes (LEDs) could be controlled by coating fluorescent polymer composites onto the LEDs. For this purpose, fluorophores that were insoluble in toluene were solubilized into a solution of block copolymer micelles in toluene by the selective incorporation of fluorescent dyes into micellar cores. Because the micelles could be dispersed well in the polymer matrix without the formation of aggregates, fluorescent dyes encapsulated in the micelles were also effectively dispersed in the polymer matrix without macroscopic separation. The polymer composite can be evenly coated onto most substrates, regardless of their surface characteristics. Thus, light-emitting devices with well-controlled emission wavelengths and emission intensities can be fabricated by coating the polymer composite onto the surface of the device. 相似文献

A New approach is introduced to incorporate multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in cementitious materials. The MWCNTs are
dispersed in styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) matrix before mixing the matrix with cement. Surfactants have been successfully
applied to enhance the dispersion and functionalization of MWCNTs in SBR. The significance of using this MWCNTs–SBR nanocomposite
on the mechanical characteristics including compressive and tensile strengths and microstructural features of latex modified
mortar (LMM) were examined. Subsequently, the significance of the functionalized MWCNTs on surface chemistry, microstructure
and thermal stability of SBR were characterized. MWCNTs were found to be a useful additive for enhancing the mechanical response
and thermal stability of SBR. MWCNTs–SBR nanocomposite was observed to be able to bridge micro-cracks in the LMM which helped
enhancing its mechanical properties. The ability of MWCNTs to enhance the mechanical response of SBR polymer matrix might
be attributed to chemical bond that functionalized MWCNTs can establish with the SBR polymer matrix. The enhanced MWCNTs–SBR
nanocomposite gave rise to improved microstructural features of the LMM. Microstructural investigations showed MWCNTs were
well dispersed in and bonded to the SBR matrix. 相似文献

It is demonstrated that aromatic polyimine obtained by the condensation of p-phenylenediamine and terephtalaldehyde can be chemically doped with heteropolyanions of Keggin-type. The spectroscopic studies show that polyimine undergoes protonation. The structural identity of the Keggin units are preserved upon incorporation into the polymer matrix. 相似文献

We report enhanced thermal and mechanical properties of carbon nanotube (CNT) composites achieved through the use of functionalized CNTs-reactive polymer linkages and three-roll milling. CNTs were functionalized with carboxyl groups and dispersed in a polymer containing an epoxide group resulting in a chemical reaction. To maximize CNT dispersion for practical usage, entangled CNTs are separated and then evenly dispersed within the polymer matrix using three horizontally positioned rotating rolls that apply a strong shear force to the composite. Consequently, accompanying with thermal stability, elastic modulus and storage modulus of such functionalized CNT/polymer composites were increased by 100% and 500% that of the untreated epoxy polymer. 相似文献

Composite materials of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) and a conducting polymer, poly(3-thiophene boronic acid) (PTBA) were prepared by in-situ oxidative polymerization of TBA in the presence of MWNTs and potassium dichromate. The MWNTs which were previously surface functionalized with acid chloride groups were reacted with TBA using a simple "chemical grafting" technique. It was observed that the nanotubes were dispersed uniformly in the pi-conjugated polymer matrix and entrapped by the polymer. The conductivity of the composites was higher than that of the pure polymer from a conventional four-probe technique, which indicates that the fabrication of MWNTs into the polymer matrix significantly improves the conductivity of the polymer due to the intrinsic properties of MWNTs. 相似文献

Graphene oxide (GO) reinforced polyimide nanocomposites were synthesized by in situ polymerization of monomers in the presence of GO sheets dispersed in N,N-Dimethylacetamide (DMAc). The functional groups (e.g., hydroxyl, epoxide, and carboxyl groups) associated with the GO make GO excellent dispersion in the organic solvent, which benefits the subsequent in situ polymerization. This process enabled uniform dispersion of GO sheets in the polymer matrix. The resultant GO-polyimide nanocomposite films were studied by tensile test, TGA and SEM. The results showed that the GO sheets incorporated in the polymer matrix exhibited a layer-aligned structure without destruction of the thermal stability of the polymer matrix, and a loading of GO (10 wt%) resulted in a significant enhancement in elastic modulus (86.4%). 相似文献

crystal droplet morphology in the polymer matrix is essentially required to meet the prerequisites of display device. Experiments
have been carried out to investigate and identify the material properties and processing conditions required for the precise
control of the droplet morphology of the dispersed liquid crystal systems. Polarization switching has been studied. Aligned
liquid crystal dispersed systems showed higher polarization over unaligned ones. 相似文献

A macroazoinitiator (MAI) containing a poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) segment was intercalated in the gallery of sodium montmorillonite (Na-MMT) and this intercalated MAI was used in the preparation of Na-MMT/poly(ethyl methacrylate) (PEMA) nanocomposites via in situ radical polymerization of ethyl methacrylate. The X-ray diffraction pattern and the morphology observed with a transmission electron microscope showed that Na-MMT intercalated with a PEG segment was heterogeneously dispersed in the polymer matrix. Thus Na-MMT intercalated with a PEG segment effectively enhanced the mechanical properties of PEMA. Shape memory behavior and rheological properties showed that Na-MMT intercalated with a PEG segment performed its role as a physical crosslinker effectively even with 1.2 wt% of Na-MMT. 相似文献

Hybrid nanocomposites based on crystalline nanoparticles dispersed in polymer matrix have been widely studied in the past few years because of the ability of these materials to combine the properties of organic polymer and inorganic nanoparticles. The aim of this work is to tune the mechanical properties of a piezoelectric polymer by adding nanoparticles to the matrix. In this paper, alumina nanoparticles were dispersed in the copolymer P(VDF-TrFE), which exhibits high piezoelectric coefficient after polarization under high electric field without needing stretching during the polarization process. Transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy demonstrate the high rate of welldispersed nanoparticles with 10% of alumina nanoparticles added to the matrix. Piezoelectric measurements indicate that P(VDF-TrFE) may be filled by up to 10 wt% of alumina while retaining its high piezoelectric properties and increasing its elastic constant by more than 20%, measured by Brillouin spectroscopy. This work opens a wide range of applications using nanoparticles with nonlinear optical, pyroelectric, magnetic, or ferroelectric properties. 相似文献

In this work multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) dispersed in a polymer matrix have been used for strain sensing of the resulting nanocomposite under tensile loading. This was achieved by measuring the relative electrical resistance change (Δ R/ R0) in conductive polyvinylidenefluoride (PVDF)/MWCNTs nanocomposites prepared by melt-mixing with varying filler content from 0.5 wt.% to 8 wt.%. Two main parameters were systematically studied. The PVDF/MWCNTs mixing procedure that results in a successful MWCNTs dispersion, and the effect of MWCNTs content on material’s sensing behaviour. The samples were subjected to tensile loading and the longitudinal strain was monitored together with the longitudinal electrical resistance. The results showed that MWCNTs dispersed in insulating PVDF matrix have the potential to be used as a sensitive network to monitor the strain levels in polymer/carbon nanotube nanocomposites as the deformation level of each sample was being reflected by the resistance changes. 相似文献

Hybrid nano/microcomposites with a nanoparticle reinforced matrix were developed, manufactured, and tested showing significant enhancements in damage tolerance properties. A woven carbon fiber reinforced polymer composite, with the polymer (epoxy) matrix reinforced with well dispersed carbon nanotubes, was produced using dispersant-and-sonication based methods and a wet lay-up process. Various interlaminar damage tolerance properties of this composite, including static strength, fracture toughness, fatigue life, and crack growth rates were examined experimentally and compared with similarly-processed reference material produced without nanoreinforcement. Significant improvements were obtained in interlaminar shear strength (20%), fracture toughness (180%), shear fatigue life (order of magnitude), and fatigue crack growth rate (factor of 2). Observations by scanning electron microscopy of failed specimens showed significant differences in fracture surface morphology between the two materials, related to the differences in properties and providing context for understanding of the enhancement mechanisms. 相似文献

The MWNTs were coated with polyaniline (PANI) by in situ chemical oxidation polymerization method. FTIR spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) indicated that the MWNTs were coated with PANI. The MWNTs/epoxy nanocomposites were fabricated by using the solution blending method. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), tensile testing, HP 4294A impedance analyzer and SEM were used to investigate the properties of the nanocomposites. The results showed that the modified carbon nanotubes were well dispersed in the polymer matrix. The nanocomposites have enhancements in mechanical, thermal and dielectric properties compare with the neat epoxy resin. The nanocomposites were proven to be a good polymer dielectric material. 相似文献

In recent years, nanoclays are being used as compatibilizer for various immiscible polymer blends. However, little work has been done on the morphology of immiscible polymer blends in presence of both the nanoclay and a reactive compatibilizer. Here, we report the synergistic effect of nanoclay and SEBS-g-MA on the morphology and properties of (70/30 w/w) PMMA/PS blend. Scanning electron microscopy study of the blend with various amount of nanoclay and SEBS-g-MA indicated a reduction in the average domain sizes (D) of dispersed PS phase in PMMA matrix compared to that in the pure blend. Addition of both SEBS-g-MA and nanoclay significantly lowered the D of PS in the blend compared to that with only SEBS-g-MA or clay. X-ray diffraction study and transmission electron microscopy revealed the presence of intercalated clay platelets in PMMA matrix, as well as, at the interface of the (70/30 w/w) PMMA/PS blend-clay nanocomposites. Addition of SEBS-g-MA in the blend-clay nanocomposites promoted the exfoliation of clays in PMMA matrix. Thus, exfoliated clay platelets in PMMA matrix effectively restricted the coalescence of dispersed PS domains while SEBS-g-MA improved the adhesion between the phases at the interface. At certain loading (phr), storage modulus, elongation at break and thermal stability of the blend were greatly improved when both the nanoclay and SEBS-g-MA were present in the blend. The use of reactive compatibilizer and nanoclay in polymer blends may lead to a high performance material which combines the advantages of compatibilized polymer blends and the merits of polymer nanocomposites. 相似文献

A compatibilization method for improving the mechanical and thermal properties of thermoplastic/thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) blends has been tested in blends of poly(ether imide), PEI, with a thermotropic copolyester (Vectra B-950). It is based on the addition of a third component, a functionalized elastomer (hydroxy terminated silicone rubber), to the blend that interacts with the matrix polymer and the thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer, facilitates the structural development of the thermotropic liquid crystalline polymers (TLCP) phase by acting as a compatibilizer at the interface. The main properties of blends required are flexibility of material in presence of compatibilizer. The viscosity of the compatibilized in situ composite was increased by the silicone rubber owing to the strong interaction. The coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of PEI/TLCP blend becomes lowered when the content of silicone rubber is increased. Morphological observation showed that the addition of compatibilizer significantly reduced the size of the dispersed LCP phase and improved their dispersion within the matrix. Measurement of the tensile properties shows increased strength as well as enhanced modulus and elongation when PEI/TLCP blend is properly compatibilized. This is attributed to fine fibril generation induced by the addition of compatibilizer. 相似文献
