Films constituted by an achiral host polymer and an achiral guest chromophore, which exhibit intense chiral optical responses for both host and guest peaks in the infrared as well as in the UV-visible regions, have been obtained. Such films can have any thickness from the nanoscale up to the macroscopic scale. This unexpected chiral optical behavior is easily achieved by crystallization of a robust commercial stereoregular host polymer (syndiotactic polystyrene, s-PS) from the amorphous phase as induced by a nonracemic guest, followed by exchange of the nonracemic guest with the achiral guest, leading to the formation of polymer-host/chromophore-guest cocrystalline phases. This finding opens the possibility to achieve s-PS-based films with chiral optical response at selected wavelengths. It has been also found that the chiral optical cocrystalline phase of s-PS with azulene exhibits a monoclinic δ-clathrate form with equal proportions of left- and right-handed helices. This confirms that the observed chiral optical behavior arises by the nonracemic native morphology of the crystalline regions, which has been induced by the temporary nonracemic guest.  相似文献

Desorption kinetics of ethene, propene, and butadiene from films exhibiting axially oriented nanoporous‐crystalline δ phases of syndiotactic polystyrene (s‐PS) have been followed by gravimetric and infrared linear dichroism measurements. The reported data can be rationalized by assuming that, after the initial desorption mainly involving molecules absorbed in the amorphous phase, most gaseous molecules are included as guest in the nanoporous‐crystalline phase. This allows establishing a simple method to evaluate guest partition between nanoporous‐crystalline and amorphous polymeric phases, which possibly can be applied for most volatile guest molecules. The described method also allows establishing the presence of one guest molecule (ethene, propene, or butadiene) per cavity of the nanoporous δ form. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The importance of organic onium compounds for host/guest interactions in biological processes has been long recognized. In contrast, the versatility of synthetic onium compounds as host molecules in abiotic chemistry has only been investigated in detail for the last few years. Due to their inclusion ability and selectivities, organic ammonium, pyridinium, and phosphonium salts and other organic salts with specific structural features are interesting as clathrate-forming molecules. The crystal structures of the clathrates afford insight into the conformational adaptability of onium clathrands with limited flexibility to the geometric requirements of the guest molecules. Optically active onium hosts can be used for enantiomeric enrichment. In crystalline tetracyanoquinodimethane(TCNQ) complexes and radical anion salts, the structure of the organic heterocation has a marked effect on the electrical conductivity. Macrocyclic onium compounds of the phane type with “exohydrophilic” and “endolipophilic” cavities are suitable as models of enzymes and biological receptors. They can also be used to transfer aromatic and aliphatic guest molecules selectively into aqueous solution. Catalytic activity (including H/D exchange) has already been obtained with synthetic compounds having large cavities. The further development of such host/guest systems may contribute to the understanding of biological systems and the improvement of technical processes (catalysis in molecular cavities).  相似文献

The phase behavior and anisotropic optical properties of tensile deformed blends of a photoluminescent polymer guest in an ultra‐high molecular weight polyethylene matrix were studied on the level of single molecules by means of scanning confocal optical microscopy. It is shown that upon tensile deformation of the blends, the system transforms from a phase‐separated system into a quasi‐molecular solid solution. The influence of this phase transition on the anisotropic optical properties of oriented blend films was also investigated with polarized steady‐state photoluminescence spectroscopy. We show that well‐dissolved guest molecules tend to reach higher degrees of orientation at lower draw ratios of the blend films compared to guests that phase‐separate from the matrix polymer. Dichroic ratios in emission in the range of 50 were observed in optimized blend films based on photoluminescent oligomers and linear low density polyethylene.  相似文献

A new approach to the synthesis of photoactive comb‐shaped homo‐ and copolyamides containing azobenzene, cinnamate, and coumarin side groups for photoalignment of liquid crystals was elaborated. Photooptical properties and photoorientational ability of these polymers with respect to liquid crystals were studied. It was shown that polarized UV irradiation of all spin‐coated polyamides leads to orientation of liquid crystalline molecules deposited on the polyamide thin films. The synthesized polymers containing cinnamate and coumarin side groups as well as azobenzene‐containing cyano‐ and nitro‐substituted polymers demonstrated good orientation ability in relation to liquid crystals displaying photoinduced planar orientation with high dichroism values within the range of 0.68–0.72. Contrary to the above‐mentioned polyamides, azobenzene‐containing fluorosubstituted polymers induced a homeotropic orientation of liquid crystals. It was shown that the synthesized photoactive polyamides can be considered as promising photoalignment materials for application in display technology, photonics, and other “smart” optical devices. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A monoclinic δ‐clathrate form of syndiotactic polystyrene (s‐PS) with carvacrol (a relevant natural phenolic antimicrobial) has been prepared and characterized by X‐ray diffraction. Very informative are Fourier transform infrared spectra, in particular their OH stretching region that shows a narrow peak and a broad band, corresponding to carvacrol molecules being isolated guest of the co‐crystalline phase or dissolved in the amorphous phase, respectively. Analogous spectral features allow discriminating, for many different s‐PS guests, between molecules being in crystalline or in amorphous phases. s‐PS co‐crystalline films with carvacrol molecules being prevailingly (more than 90%) guest of the co‐crystalline phase have been prepared, even for high carvacrol content (up to 10–11 wt %). The location of most antimicrobial molecules in the crystalline phase assures a decrease of desorption diffusivity of two to three orders and hence long‐term antimicrobial release. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Intercalation of guest species into layered inorganic solids is a method of producing ordered inorganic–organic assemblies with unique microstructures controlled by host–guest and guest–guest interactions. Smectite clay minerals, such as montmorillonite, having appropriate functional molecules in between the silicate layers are supposed to exhibit a wide range of novel characteristics. Nanocomposite material based on maleic anhydride‐grafted polypropylene and dye‐modified layered silicate was developed. Characteristics of organo‐modified montmorillonite particles and polymer/clay hybrids have been investigated through FTIR, SAXS, DSC, UV measurements, and transmission electron microscopy. The results of the intercalation process, structural characterization, and thermal properties will be discussed in comparison with the intercalation and nanocomposite preparation results. The intercalation was successfully conducted by the ion‐exchange method. It was shown that intercalated dibenzilidene acetone type chromophores exist in the clay galleries in an aggregated form, probably as J‐aggregates. This feature strongly effects on optical and nonlinear optical properties of nanocomposites. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 43: 2493–2502, 2005  相似文献

Three series of semiflexible and rigid main‐chain polyesters containing photoreactive mesogenic units derived from p‐phenylenediacrylic acid (PDA) and cinnamic acid have been synthesized by high‐temperature polycondensation. The thermal and mesomorphic properties of the polymers have been determined. The photochemical behavior of polymer P‐[1]‐T, which contains a PDA unit, has been studied both in solution and in films. In solution, [2+2] photocycloaddition, E/Z photoisomerization, and photo‐Fries rearrangement can take place. In contrast, the dominant process in spin‐coated films is the [2+2] photocycloaddition reaction, which causes crosslinking of the polymer. In films, the photochemistry and induction of anisotropy are strongly influenced by the aggregation of the PDA phenylester unit. A dichroism of about 0.2 has been induced in films by irradiation with linearly polarized UV light, and thus the capability of these films to induce optical anisotropy and align liquid crystals has been demonstrated. Liquid‐crystalline cells have been made with polarized irradiated films of P‐[1]‐T as aligning layers. A commercial liquid‐crystalline mixture has been used for this study, and a similar liquid‐crystalline order determined by polarized Fourier transform infrared to a commercial cell with rubbed polyimide as an aligning layer has been detected. Because of crosslinking of the irradiated P‐[1]‐T photoaligning layer, the photoinduced anisotropy is stable at high temperatures, and the liquid‐crystalline molecules are insoluble in the irradiated polymer. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A series of novel crown ether‐containing photochromic comb‐shaped liquid crystalline polyacrylates with different macromolecular structure of side groups were synthesized and investigated. Phase behavior, optical and photo‐optical properties of thin spin‐coated films of these polymers were studied. A special attention was paid to a comparative study of the photo‐orientation phenomena occurring in the polymer films under a polarized light action. It was shown that complex formation with the potassium ions results in the decrease in degree of the photoinduced order that can be used for the creation of new materials for sensor devices. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Two photosensitive chiral liquid crystalline azobenzene‐containing polymethacrylates having different length of flexible spacer connecting chromophores with backbone were synthesized and their phase behavior and photo‐optical properties were studied. Both polymers consist of lateral methyl substituents in ortho‐position of azobenzene chromophores providing high photosensitivity even in red spectral region as well as high thermal stability of photoinduced Z‐form of azobenzene chromophores. It is shown, that smectic phase (SmA*) formation in films of polymer with longer spacer predetermines its quite unusual spectral response to UV and subsequent visible light actions. The SmA* phase promotes spontaneous homeotropic alignment of azobenzene chromophores in polymer films. UV‐irradiation induces not only E‐Z isomerization but also results in disruption of homeotropic alignment, whereas subsequent visible light action enables to obtain films with the low degree of chromophores orientation. The photo‐orientation phenomena under the action of polarized light of different wavelength on polymer films were studied. The possibility of using red polarized light of moderate intensity for optical photorecording on polymer films is demonstrated. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym.

Herein, the concept of “inverted” (the mode “molecules mainly interact with cations”) deep eutectic solvents (DESs) is proposed. A strategy to form inverted DESs by host‐guest interactions was developed, and thus numerous DESs could be designed and formed by a combination of host and guest molecules. These liquids are expected to be used as nonaqueous electrolytes in potassium‐ion batteries or other fields for further exploration.  相似文献

A series of oriented liquid–crystalline epoxy thin films were prepared by the in situ polymerization of a liquid–crystalline diepoxide, 1,4‐phenylene bis[4‐(2,3‐epoxypropoxy)benzoate], with an aromatic diamine, 4,4′‐diaminobiphenyl, in a 7.0‐T magnetic field. The birefringent measurements of the oriented films were made from 543.5 to 830 nm. In this range, the values of birefringence (Δn) range from 0.155 to 0.130. When they are extrapolated to the microwave region, Δn = 0.105. The dichroism of a guest azo dye, 4‐(4‐nitrophenylazo)‐3‐hexyloxyaniline, in the oriented thin films was examined in the visible region. From the results, the order parameter of the polymer was calculated to 0.65 by extrapolating the concentration of the guest azo dye to zero. The guest azo dye compound does not affect the birefringence. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 39: 915–919, 2001  相似文献

Semi‐crystalline polymer‐clay nanocomposite properties are often considered only by their clay dispersion state. The purpose of this work is to highlight texture effects on semi crystalline polymer‐clay properties. Maleic anhydride‐grafted polyethylene nanocomposites with two different processing techniques (Blown Extrusion and Compression) were studied. The processing was shown to induce different crystalline lamellae orientation in the films but with no significant changes in the crystalline lamellae long period, degree of crystallinity, clay particle orientation morphology and dispersion. The impact of these specific textures on the nanocomposites barrier and tensile properties were reported. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 46: 1966–1975, 2008  相似文献

This review focuses on the structural control in thin films of regioregular poly(3‐hexylthiophene) (P3HT), a workhorse among conjugated semiconducting polymers. It highlights the correlation existing between processing conditions and the resulting structures formed in thin films and in solution. Particular emphasis is put on the control of nucleation, crystallinity and orientation. P3HT can generate a large palette of morphologies in thin films including crystalline nanofibrils, spherulites, interconnected semicrystalline morphologies and nanostructured fibers, depending on the elaboration method and on the macromolecular parameters of the polymer. Effective means developed in the recent literature to control orientation of crystalline domains in thin films, especially by using epitaxial crystallization and controlled nucleation conditions are emphasized. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

We report the synthesis, characterization, and solvent‐induced structure formation in thin films of an amphiphilic rod‐coil conjugated block copolymer, poly(3‐hexylthiophene)‐b‐poly(ethylene oxide). The diblock copolymers were prepared by a facile click reaction and their characterizations as well as thermal, crystalline, optical properties, and self‐assembly behavior have been investigated in detail. A series of morphologies including two‐phase separated nanostructure, nanofibrils, and their mixed morphology could be obtained depending on the selectivity of solvents to different blocks. Structural analyses demonstrate there is a subtle balance between microphase separation of copolymer and the π‐π stacking of the conjugated P3HT and such balance can be controlled by changing the solvents of different selectivity in solution and the length of P3HT block. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The ability to pack guest molecules into charged dendronized polymers (denpols) and the possibility to release these guest molecules from subsequently densely aggregated denpols in a load–collapse–release cascade is described. Charged denpols, which constitute molecular objects with a persistent, well‐defined envelope and interior, are capable of incorporating large amounts of amphiphilic guest molecules. Simultaneously, multivalent ions can coordinate to the surfaces of charged denpols, leading to counterion‐induced aggregation of the already guest‐loaded host structures. Thus, although the local guest concentration in denpol‐based molecular transport might already be initially high due to the dense guest packing inside the dendritic denpol scaffolding, the “local” guest concentration can nonetheless be further increased by packing (through aggregation) of the host–guest complexes themselves. Subsequent release of guest compounds from densely aggregated dendronized polymers is then possible (e.g., through increasing the solution concentration of imidazolium‐based ions). Augmented with this release possibility, the concept of twofold packing of guests, firstly through hosting itself and secondly through aggregation of the hosts, gives rise to a load–collapse–release cascade that strikingly displays the high potential of dendronized macromolecules for future molecular transport applications.  相似文献

Differential thermal analysis, optical microscopy and ionic conductivity studies have been carried out on polymer electrolyte films prepared by deposition of solutions of neodymium trifluoromethanesulphonate and poly(ethylene oxide). A wide range of electrolyte concentrations were examined and a partial pseudo-equilibrium phase diagram of the system was determined. From the results obtained it is evident that the presence of relatively high concentrations of ionic guest species in the polymer host results in an inhibition of the growth of crystalline material (polymer spherulites or a polymer—salt coordination complex).  相似文献

We propose a new approach for the production of thin film optical functional materials. The method is based on molecular design whereby two different types of lyotropic liquid crystals (LC), lyotropic LC based on columnar supramolecules and water-soluble rod-like polymer molecules are mixed. The resulting lyotropic guest–host system allows production of optical retardation films with tunable optical anisotropy controlled by composition of the guest–host system. Coatable retarders can be used in modern liquid crystal displays and TVs for optical compensation and enhancement of the LCD's performance.  相似文献

A combination of optical and atomic force microscopy (AFM) is used for probing changes in the morphology of polymer blend films that accompany phase ordering processes (phase separation and crystallization). The phase separation morphology of a “model” semi‐crystalline (polyethyleneoxide or PEO) and amorphous (polymethylmethacrylate or PMMA) polymer blend film is compared to previous observations on binary amorphous polymer blend films of polystyrene (PS) and polyvinylmethylether (PVME). The phase separation patterns are found to be similar except that crystallization of the film at high PEO concentrations obscures the observation of phase separation. The influence of film defects (e.g., scratches) and clay filler particles on the structure of the semi‐crystalline and amorphous polymer films is also investigated.  相似文献

A new model has been developed to account for the dependence of the optical anisotropy of a dye polarizer on the dye concentration. The effect of the dye concentration has been studied through an examination of the changes in the orientation distribution of the polymer. The model takes into account the intrinsic optical anisotropy of the dichroic dye, the polymer orientation, the polymer orientation distribution, and the dye orientation with respect to the polymer. It is assumed that (1) the orientation distribution function of the polymer segments can be expressed as an elliptical distribution function and that (2) the free rotation of each dye molecule on its axis is suppressed because of the attraction force between the dye molecules and the polymer chains. The pseudo‐order parameter, which takes into account the aforementioned assumptions, determines the relation between single‐piece transmittance and polarizing efficiency. The orientation distribution of the polymer molecules in the experiment and its effect on the optical performance of a polarizer are quantitatively determined. The model predicts that the effect of the orientation distribution becomes more significant as the polymer chains are oriented more highly. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
