A new approach for the synthesis of conjugated/non-conjugated poly(phenylene vinylene)–polyacrylamide copolymers
Abstract
A new type of poly(phenylene vinylene)–polyacrylamide copolymer has been synthesized by a modified sulfonium precursor route; the obtained copolymer is composed of hydrophobic PPV conjugated blocks and hydrophilic polyacrylamide segments; these two parts show strong phase separation and produce a multiphase structure in the solid state.
