Synthesis, electrochemical characterization and impedance studies on novel thiophene-nonylbithiazole-thiophene comonomer

Synthesis, Characterization and Electrochemical Properties of Polymers Based on Dithienothiophene and Bithiazole

“…Growth of the polymer P2 from the monomer M2 was obtained similar to the literature report, which was depicted in Figure . Its oxidation potential was found at nearly 1.35 V. Following the electrochemical polymerization of the monomers M1 and M2 , attempts were made for the electropolymerization of their mixtures.…”

“…For the synthesis of the monomer M2 , 5,5′‐dibromo‐4,4′‐dinonyl‐2,2′‐bithiazole 7 was coupled with 2‐trimethyltinthiophene 8 to yield 4,4′‐ dinonyl‐2,2′‐bithiazole M2 (Scheme ).…”

Effect of polymerization solvent, potential, and temperature on morphology and capacitance properties of poly(thieno[3,2-b]thiophene) films

“…8. According to the proposed equivalent circuit model, the chi-squared (x 2 ) defined as the sum of the squares of the residuals reached 10 À4 , which indicated that the simulation calculated results were well in accordance with the measured results [42]. In the equivalent circuit model, R s is the solution resistance; C d shows the double layer capacitance; R 1 is the charge transfer resistance at the polymer/solution interface; R 2 is the parallel resistance of the leakage reaction; C 1 is the capacitance of PTT; C 2 and R 3 is the resistance and the double layer capacitance of the Pt substrate, respectively.…”

“…Additionally, the specific capacitance of PTT film prepared at 1.7 V was lower than that obtained from CV (619.2 F g À1 ). This is mainly due to the specific capacitance value of polymer obtained from EIS is related to the chosen open circuit voltage [42,43].…”

Voltammetric, EQCM, and in situ conductance studies of p- and n-dopable polymers based on ethylenedioxythiophene and bithiazole

“…When the EDOT and thiazole moieties are connected in a donor-acceptor system, the resultant materials will be both p-and n-dopable, and may adopt the -stacked structures characteristic of the bithiazoles. Thus, we have used successfully Stille coupling reactions to prepare several donor-acceptor-donor type co-oligomers [42][43][44][45][46].…”
