ABSTRACT:The synthesis was performed by the electropolymerization of thiophene on a poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS)-coated platinum electrode at 2.2 V with tetrabutylammoniumtetrafloroborate (TBAFB) as a supporting electrolyte and with acetonitrile as a solvent. The characterization of the PDMS-polythiophene (Pth) composites was carried out with cyclic voltammetry, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis, and conductivity measurements. The observed conductivities of the PDMS composites were 2.2-5.2 S/cm. The conductivity of Pth did not change appreciably with the addition of up to 30% insulating PDMS, but its processability improved. FTIR, SEM, and DSC studies showed the existence of a strong interaction, rather than physical adhesion, between PDMS and Pth. Highly flexible and foldable PDMSPth composites were obtained.

The activity of iodoform (CHI 3 ) toward unsaturated rubbers was examined. Special attention was devoted to cis-1,4-(poly)isoprene (IR). The thermal decomposition of CHI 3 was studied by ion mass spectroscopy, and the obtained data were used for the identification of pyrolysis products of CHI 3 vulcanizates by pyrolytic gas chromatography. The kinetics of the chemical crosslinking of rubber were studied with a cure meter. The changes observed in the chemical structure of rubber were explained on the basis of 13 CNMR and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, equilibrium swelling, and chemical microanalysis data. Apart from crosslinking, a simultaneous modification of the rubber macromolecules took place, specifically the cistrans isomerization of IR. This resulted in a significant increase in the rubber hardness, especially after a postheat treatment accompanied by oxidation. CHI 3 -IR vulcanizates behaved like thermoplastics because of the presence of a trans-1,4 phase, as confirmed by dynamic mechanical thermal analysis. The structure of the macromolecules treated with CHI 3 and its effect on the physical properties of the material were compared with those of peroxide-IR vulcanizates. The influence of the modification on the surface energy, bacteriostaticity, and mechanical properties of the vulcanizates was examined.
