    Synthesis of thermally stable and low band gap poly(azomethine-urethane)s containing fluorene unit in the backbone
    (Springer New York LLC, 2015) Kaya İ; Avcı A.; Temizkan K.
    New poly(azomethine-urethane)s (PAMU)s were prepared to investigate the effects of different four diisocyanates on some physical properties such as thermal stability, optical and electrochemical properties. First, the fluorene Schiff base was synthesized as in the literature. Then, this Schiff base was converted to poly(azomethine-urethane)s using diisocyanates (2,4-toluenediisocyanate, 1,4-phenylene diisocyanate, methylene-di-p-phenyl-diisocyanate, and hexamethylene-diisocyanate) via condensation reaction. Second, the structures of PAMUs were confirmed by FT-IR, NMR, and UV-Vis spectral analyses. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) was used to determine the electrochemical oxidationreduction characteristics of (PAMU)s. The CV results of PAMUs compounds showed to have an electrochemical band gap below such as 2.0 eV. The PAMUs were characterized by TGA, DSC, SEM, SEC and AFM techniques. TGA analysis results of compounds showed considerable increasing of the thermal stability of polymers, because of finding of azomethine bond in the main chain. © 2014, Korean Institute of Chemical Engineers, Seoul, Korea.

    Fluorescence, thermal and electrochemical properties of poly(azomethine-urethane)s containing sulfone group
    (Springer Verlag, 2015) Avcı A.; Temizkan K.; Kaya İ.
    In this study, the new sulfone group-containing poly(azomethine-urethane)s (PAZUs) were synthesized to investigate the effects various diisocyanates on the thermal, fluorescence, electrochemical and morphological properties. The structures of PAZUs have been confirmed by FT-IR, NMR, and SEC analyses. The electrochemical behaviors of the PAZUs were examined by cyclic voltammetry. Optical properties were investigated by UV–Vis and fluorescence measurements. The PAZUs were further characterized by TGA, DSC, SEM, and AFM techniques. TGA analyses results showed considerable increase in the thermal stability of polyurethanes due to the introduction of azomethine bond in the main chain. Consequently, because of the fine thermal properties the obtained materials can be used to produce thermally stable materials. © 2015, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.

    Photophysical and thermal properties of polyazomethines containing various flexible units
    (Polymer Society of Korea, 2017) Kaya İ.; Avcı A.; Temizkan K.
    In this study, the poly(azomethine-ether-urethane), poly(azomethine-ester) and poly(azomethine-epoxyether) compounds were prepared to investigate effect of various flexible units on some physical properties like thermal stability and photophysical properties. Structural characterizations were made by FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and UV-Vis analyses. The molecular weight distributions of polymers were performed by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) measurement. The chemical and physical properties of polymers were examined by thermogravimetry (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), photoluminescence (PL), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) techniques. As a result, the outstanding properties related to the photoluminescence and thermal measurements of the polymers were obtained. Therefore, the presented photoluminescent polymers could be used in thermally stable photo-functional materials.
