The invention relates to a
carbon nanotube / poly
Schiff base polymer, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. The invention relates to a
composite material of
carbon nanotube and poly
Schiff base, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. With the
polymer and the methods provided by the invention, problems of existing poly
Schiff base of low photoelectrochromic
response sensitivity and poor
thermal stability are solved. According to the invention, aminated carbon nanotubes,
aromatic diamine monomers, and dialdehyde compounds are subject to an
in situ polymerization reaction, such that the product is obtained. First, aminated carbon nanotubes and part of dialdehyde compounds are mixed and heated until
reflux liquid is generated; then
aromatic diamine monomers and rest dialdehyde compounds are mixed and injected in batches, and the reaction is continued, such that the product is obtained. The
polymer provided by the invention provides electrochromic, acidichromic, and photochromic performances, and has good
thermal stability. Therefore, the polymer can be used in displays and acid-base sensors. The polymer has high electrochromic, acidichromic, and photochromic sensitivity, and provides reversible acidichromic and photochromic performances.
