    Preparation of Nanographene-Based Copolymer Nanocomposites: Thermal Decomposition Kinetic, Optical, and Electrical Behaviors

    Barim, Esra; Demirelli, Kadir

    The poly(4-methacryloyloxyphenyl-4'-methoxystyryl ketone-co-methyl methacrylate) [P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA)] was synthesized using a free radical copolymerization method at 60 °C. The composition of the copolymer was estimated by 1H-NMR. The nanocomposites of P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA)-loaded 9 and 11 wt% nanographene (NG) were produced using the ultrasonic homogenizer sonicator. The FT-IR, 1H-NMR, GPC, TGA, XRD, and SEM techniques were used to characterize the copolymer and composites. The thermal behavior of P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA) partially heated up to 270, 310, 340, and 380 °C was investigated by FT-IR analysis. A six-membered anhydride ring in the copolymer backbone formed at 340 °C and higher temperatures. TG measurements were used to analyze the thermal decomposition processes of pure P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA) and P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA)/NG 11 wt% composite. Apparent activation energies for thermal decomposition of P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA)/NG 11 wt% were determined using the Flynn–Wall–Ozawa (FWO) and Kissinger–Akahira–Sunose (KAS) methods at a temperature range of 200 and 400 °C for a weight loss of approximately 70%. The average activation energies determined from the FWO and KAS methods were 86.3 and 80.3 kJ/mol, respectively. The dielectric and electrical behaviors of the P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA) and P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA)/NG 11 wt% composite were investigated at room temperature. The dc activation energy for dc conductivity of nanocomposite was calculated as 1.092 eV. Optical properties such as absorption, reflectance, refractive index, absorption edge, direct band gap of the copolymer, and composites were investigated from their optical examinations in the wavelength region of 200–800 nm. It was found that the optical energy gap values had shifted to the lower energies with the doping of NG.

    Controlling of electro-optical properties of cobalt phthalocyanine formed single chain polymer: Sudan III and nanographene based its composites

    Demirelli, Kadir; Barım, Esra; Tuncer, Hülya; Dere, Ayşegül; Canbay, Canan Aksu; Karaduman, Oktay; Al-Sehemi, Abdullah G.; Al-Ghamdif, Ahmed A.; Yakuphanoğlu, Fahretttin

    The synthesis of poly[4-(4-vinylbenzyl)oxy)phthalonitrile-co-styrene] [P(VBOPN5 %-co-St)] was carried out by free radical polymerisation at 60 °C. The successful formation of a green coloured single-chain polymer molecule with the formation of cobalt phthalocyanine (SCP-CoPc) was performed at 140–150 °C in the presence of dilute cyclohexanol. The characterization of SCP-CoPc was confirmed by FT-IR and UV/vis spectroscopic techniques. The absorption filtration process of the SCP-CoPc polymer/Sudan III composite was investigated. The introduction of Sudan III into the SCP-CoPc polymer matric strongly affected the optical transmission spectrum of the composite films. The optical transmission measurements of the SCP-CoPc/Sudan III thin film show a high absorption in the visible region (400–800 nm). In the SCP-CoPc/Sudan III composites, the optical band gaps (Eg1 and Eg2) of each of its components has changed significantly. The Eg1 and Eg2 were found to be between 1.90 and 2.83 eV, respectively. Depending on the sudan III content, a wide range from 600 nm to 730 nm indicates complete absorption filtration. The dc electrical conductivity and dielectric behavior of the SCP-CoPc/Nanografene (NG) 6 wt% nanocomposite increased with increasing temperature. From the dc conductivity plot, the Ea values of I. and II. regions were found to be 0.75 eV and 0.27 eV, respectively and it was found that the calculated activation energy obeyed the Arrhenius relationship. The refractive index and the optical permittivity of SCP-CoPc/NG 6 wt% have been estimated.
