Nano Structural Metal Composites: Synthesis, Structural And Thermal Characterization

In this work , metal functional polymers, namely Cr-PS-b-P2VP, Co-PS-b-P2VP, Au-PS-b-P2VP, Fe-PS-b-P2VP and Mo-PS-b-P2VP were prepared by thermal reaction of hexacarbonylchromium, Cr(CO)6, octacarbonyldicobalt,Co2(CO)8, hydrogentetrachloroaurate(III), H(AuCl4).4H2O, trichloroiron(III), FeCl3.6H2O, molybdenum(VI)oxide, MoO3 and PS-b-P2VP. TEM images indicated formation of AuIII, Cr and Co nanoparticles. On the other hand, crystalline structures were detected for Fe-PS-b-P2VP and Mo-PS-b-P2VP. Samples involving nanoparticles were further characterized by FTIR, UV-Vis and direct pyrolysis mass spectroscopy techniques. FTIR analysis indicated dissapearance of characteristic carbonyl peaks of Cr(CO)6 and Co2(CO)8 for Cr-PS-b-P2VP and Co-PS-b-P2VP samples. The appearance of a peak at about 467 cm-1 supported the formation of metal-nitrogen bond. Pyrolysis mass spectrometry analysis showed an increase in the thermal stability of P2VP chains involving coordinated pyridine units. The thermal stability of these chains increased in the order Co&lt / Cr &lt / Au3+ indicating stronger coordination in the same order.
