✦ Synopsis


The thermal cis-trans isomerization of azo dyes XC6H4N=NC6H4N(C2H5)2 (where X is H, OCH3, CN, and NOz) in poly(ethy1ene terephthalate) matrices, below the glass transition temperature, and in dibutylphthalate solutions has been studied kinetically in the temperature range 20-60Β°C. Kinetic behavior in the polymer is characterized by two or three simultaneous first-order processes with similar activation enthalpies. These processes reflect an unequal distribution of "tie-molecules," "folds," and "cilia" in the amorphous region of the polymer. Lightfastness of the dyes in poly(ethy1ene terephthalate) films has been investigated. Polymer morphology strongly affected the photofading, but no significant influence was observed in the kinetic experiments.

Five polypropylene films were prepared having different crystallinity and morphology, the latter having been modified by stretching. They were colored with azo dyes XC6H4N=N&H4N(C,H5), (where X=H, OCH,, CN, and NO,). The kinetics of the thermal cis-trans isomerization of these dyes has been studied

Azo dyes when irradiated by visible light undergo transcis isomerization, after which the cis form reverts progressively to the thermodynamically more stable trans isomer following a photochemical or thermal path.'-5 For a given dye, the cis-trans isomerization proceeds in different ways depending o
