Synthesis and properties of ionene polymers for use in applications

Project Abstract

Ionenes are a class of polymer that feature an ionic group directly integrated into the polymer backbone. This provides the polymer with its characteristic thermal stability and varying glass transition temperatures. Herein we employed thiol-ene click chemistry to synthesize polymer networks. This presentation will demonstrate the synthesis of ionene polymer networks; via combining bifunctional alkene-terminated imidazolium, containing amide monomer that were treated with differing molar ratios of alkyl-thiols with varying functionality, to generate desired ionic polymer network materials. These polymer network materials were then photo polymerized. Polymer and monomer characterization was determined by 1H-NMR, IR, and X-ray diffraction. The mechanical and thermal properties of the polymer network materials were also characterized.
