✦ Synopsis

Ring sulfonation of a poly(thienothiophene) produces a stable, low‐bandgap (< 1.2 eV), water‐processable, intrinsically conductive polymer. The optical properties of the polymer can be easily modified by varying the sulfonation level and optical‐bandgap tuning can also be achieved through the use of a polycation. When used as the polyanion in layer‐by‐layer‐assembled films with polyethyleneimine, the optical absorption properties and intensity remain unchanged for seventeen months. Stability combined with an absorption maximum located within the range for peak solar flux could render these polymers as potential dyes for solar‐energy conversion applications.

Several kinds of commercially available polymers of the type poly(oxy-1,4-phenylenecarbonyl-1,4-phenylene) were sulfonated by reaction with mixtures of sulfuric acid and oleum. The ether/carbonyl group ratio of the polymer chain varied from 0.67 to 2.0. With decreasing amounts of ether links in the

The sulfonation of polymers and the pervaporation behavior of asymmetric polymeric membranes are described in this study. We confirmed that the sulfonic acid group was successively introduced into the polymer chain by FTIR and 1 H-NMR characterization. The phase diagram indicated that the modified p
