Abstract:
The synthesis, properties optimisation and blending of two intrinsically conducting polymer families have been investigated. Electron rich polymers, based on polythiophene derivatives, and electron deficient polymers, based on polypyridine derivatives, were successfully synthesised and characterised. Poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) [PEDOT] was synthesised by controlled oxidative polymerisation. Hexyl-substituted EDOT, which is commercially unavailable, was successfully synthesised via an eight step reaction. Poly (3-nitropyridine) [PPy-3-NO[sub]2] was produced following a revised literature

Side chain liquid crystal polypyrroles have been synthesised and investigated in order to study their liquid crystallinity and its possible effect on their electronic conductivity. The synthesis ofN-substituted dithienylpyrrole was studied using a number of methods. Firstly, there was the synthesis of a side chain which consisted of a mesogenic group and nine units of methylene as a spacer. This synthesis was followed by the preparation of the N-substituted monomer, its polymerisation and the characterisation of both the low molecular weight compounds and the polymer.

This thesis reports studies of several aspects of the behaviour of intrinsically conducting organic polymers with conjugated backbones. Polyparaphenylene has been synthesised by a range of chemical methods and the products studied by spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction and electrical properties.

The intrinsic and oxidative degradation of compensated and p-type doped poly thiophene and polypyrrole have been studied by uv-vis, ftir, tga and by monitoring electrical conductivity.

The electroreductive polymerisation of 2,5-dibromopyridine based on either the Ni(0)(PPh3)4] or [Ni(0)(bpy)3ClO4)2] systems was investigated. The results obtained via both routes are discussed in terms of their respective mechanisms. The initial steps of the polymerisation based on the latter system are analysed using a specially developed kinetic theory.

According to different sources, from forty to sixty percent of the overall energy generated in the world today is squandered in waste heat. The existing energy conversion technologies are either close to their efficiency limits or too costly to justify their implementation. Therefore, the development of new technological approaches for waste heat recovery is highly demanded. The field of thermoelectrics can potentially provide an inexpensive, clean and efficient solution to waste heat underutilization, given that a new type of thermoelectric materials capable of meeting those requirements are
