Güvel and Nesrin Köken and Nilgün Kızılcan}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {This study presents synthesis of novel block copolymers of thienyl end capped ethoxylated nonyl phenol and pyrrole via chemical oxidative polymerization. Ethoxylated nonyl phenol (ENP) was reacted with 2-thiophenecarbonyl chloride in order to synthesize a macromonomer containing thienyl end-group (ENPThC). Then copolymers of ENP-ThC and pyrrole were synthesized by chemical oxidative polymerization using iron (III) chloride as an oxidant. ENP-ThC served both as a macromonomer and an emulsifier for pyrrole with poor solubility in water. The synthesized block copolymers (ENP-ThC-b-PPy) were characterized by spectroscopic analysis and the electrical conductivities were investigated with 4-point probe technique. }, journal = {International Journal of Chemical and Molecular Engineering}, volume = {9}, number = {2}, year = {2015}, pages = {279 - 283}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/10000417}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/98}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 98, 2015}, }
