Complexation Reactions

Thiosemicarbazones (TSCs) represent a category of chemical compounds that attract diverse research groups' attention due to their wide and extended applications in different pharmaceutical and agrochemical applications. Complexation reactions between the ligand and CuCl2 resulted in the formation of [Cu2(H2MTS)Cl2(H2O)4 ]. X-ray diffraction data analysis of the studied complex suggests octahedral structure, while characterization through elemental, thermal, magnetic, and spectral (UV, IR, NMR, and ESR) analyses showed the formation of the complex. Thin films of pure polyvinyl alcohol and other samples containing different mass fractions of CuTSCs were successfully prepared through the traditional solution casting technique. Studies of the synthesized thin films show a notable change of crystallinity, optical band gap, refractive index, dielectric primitivity, and other physical properties with increasing copper complex. Besides, synthesized samples show an observed activity against different pathogenic grams. Increasing copper complex content also shows a prominent change in different samples' swelling rates, suggesting that metal complex acts as a controlled cross-linker for polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) polymer.

A method using a combination of acid hydrolysis and ultrasonic homogenize were developed to obtain the CNF (cellulose nanofibers) from agave cantala fibers. Acid hydrolysis method able to produce the CNF with a diameter around of 45-50 nm, which can investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The homogenize mixing method between CNF 5 wt% colloidal and 3 wt% PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) with magnetic stirrer 350 RPM, at temperature of 50 °C, for 30 minutes followed by ultrasonic homogenizer has been causing CNF well distributed in the PVA matrix. PVA/CNF nanocomposites film was prepared by solution casting technique. Physical properties test by x-ray diffraction (XRD) and fourier transform infrared (FTIR) shows highly crystalline of CNF which indicates improvements the mechanical properties of PVA/CNF nanocomposite film. The tensile stress and elongation at break of PVA/CNF nanocomposite film were increased by 55 % and 137 %.

In this work, polymer blend films based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) were prepared by solution casting technique. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis was performed to investigate the structural details of the polymer blend. XRD pattern confirms the polycrystalline nature of the films. Sandwich structures of the type Ag-PVA/PEG-Ag were formed to study the dielectric and conduction properties in the frequency range 300 Hz–3 MHz and at different temperatures varying from 298 K to 420 K. Experimental results show that both dielectric constant ( ε′) and dielectric loss ( ε″) values were strong functions of frequency and temperature. The AC conductivity ( σAC) was found to obey the power law Aωs and correlated barrier hopping as the conduction mechanism. The imaginary part of electric modulus shows peak shifting corresponding to relaxation mechanisms. Electric modulus study was also found to support the dielectric permittivity data.

Polymer Blend Electrolyte

This paper is a report of a study conducted on Structural, thermal and optical Properties of pure PMMA, pure PEO and PMMA-PEO-LiClO4 polymer blend electrolyte thin films. These films were prepared using solution casting technique and characterized by X-ray Diffractometer (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). XRD analysis Observations confirmed that amorphous, crystalline and semi crystalline nature of pure PMMA, pure PEO and PMMA-PEO-LiClO4 polymer blend electrolyte thin films the SEM micrographs suggest that the surface morphology of pure PEO changes from smooth to rough when PMMA and LiClO4 added to PEO polymer, which shows the interaction/ interface between the two polymers and polymer blend electrolyte due to cross – linking. Glass transition (Tg) and melting temperatures (Tm) of pure PMMA, pure PEO and PMMA-PEO-LiClO4 polymer blend electrolyte thin films were confirmed by DSC analysis. FTIR spectra confirmed that complex formation and interaction among PMMA, PEO polymers and LiClO4 salt.

In the present investigation, we study the properties of the plasticized polyglycidyl methacrylate P(GMA) copolymerized with polymethyl methacrylate P(MMA)-LiClO4polymer electrolyte prepared by solution casting technique. The electrolyte was characterized using impedance spectroscopy (EIS), Fourier transforms infrared (FTIR), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The conductivity was improved from1.3×10−12 S cm−1to8.7×10−6 S cm−1upon the addition of 25 wt.% LiClO4salt into P(GMA-MMA). The conductivity was improved from1.4×10−6 S cm−1to3.0×10−4 S cm−1upon the addition of 80 wt.% EC into P(GMA-MMA)-LiClO4The band that belongs to C–O–C is shifted farther than the band of C=O upon the addition of LiClO4into P(GMA-MMA). The band of C–O–C stretching is shifted to lower wavenumber upon the addition of EC into P(GMA-MMA)-LiClO4. Upon the addition of EC into P(GMA-co-MMA), the intensity of the peaks decreases, implying the amorphous nature of the electrolyte increases with the concentration of the plasticizer. The electrolyte is electrochemically stable at 3.8 V, making it suitable for dye-sensitized solar cell application.

Gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) are developed using poly(1-vinylpyrrolidone-co-vinyl acetate) [P(VP-co-VAc)] as the host polymer, lithium bis(trifluoromethane) sulfonimide [LiTFSI] as the lithium salt and ionic liquid, and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide [EMImTFSI] by using solution casting technique. The effect of ionic liquid on ionic conductivity is studied and the optimum ionic conductivity at room temperature is found to be 2.14 × 10−6 S cm−1for sample containing 25 wt% of EMImTFSI.

Composite polymer electrolytes (CPEs) comprised of hexanoyl chitosan-polystyrene-LiCF3SO3-TiO2 were prepared by solution casting technique. The TiO2 fillers were treated with 4% sulphuric acid (H2SO4) aqueous solution. The effect of treated TiO2 on the structural and electrical behaviour of the prepared electrolyte systems was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and impedance spectroscopy, respectively. Addition of TiO2 decreases the crystallinity of the electrolytes. Ac conductivity was calculated from σ(ω) = εoεrωtanδ. It is found that at all frequencies, σ(ω) increases with increasing temperature. Dielectric constant decreases with increasing frequency and increases with increasing temperature.

The effect of different concentrations in weight per volume percentage, (w/v)% of iota-carrageenan and carboxymethyl-iota carrageenan used as the green polymer electrolyte has been studied. The polymer electrolyte films were prepared by solution casting technique. Different concentration in the range from 1.0 – 6.0 (w/v)% were dissolved in fix volume of acetic acid which act as solvent. The films have been analyzed through attenuated Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurement and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The EIS results showed that the ionic conductivity increased as the concentration of the polymer increases. In comparison between iota-carrageenan and carboxymethyl iota-carrageenan, carboxymethyl-iota carrageenan showed better results due to the presence of more active site. The highest conductivity achieved by iota-carrageenan and carboxymethyl iota-carrageenan were 3.45 × 10-6S cm-1and 9.57 × 10-4S cm-1at the concentration 3.0 and 4.0 (w/v)% , respectively. From the FTIR spectra, it depicts that the intensity of significant peaks of ether and carboxylate group increases as the concentration of polymer increases. The XRD analysis showed that as the concentration of polymer increase, the amorphous region in the films would be enhanced. This study showed that the concentration play significant role in the ionic conductivity improvement.
