Abstract:
Enhancing switching response capability of electrochromic (EC) polymers has been a topical issue. Herein, the H-shaped nonplanar pentiptycene scaffold is successfully introduced into the polyamide film derived from N,N'-bis(4-aminophenyl)-N,N'-di(methoxyphenyl)-1,4-phenylenediamine (TPPA), and the resulting copolymer shows enhanced EC behaviors, including lower oxidation potential and shorter switching response time, as compared to the corresponding TPPA-derived homopolymer.
