Resumo

Amorphous poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL(530))/siloxane ormolytes doped with manganese perchlorate (Mn(ClO4)(2)) (d-PCL(530)/siloxane(n)Mn(ClO4)(2) with n = 20, 50, and 100), thermally stable up to at least 200 degrees C, were synthesized by the sol-gel method. Ionic conductivity values up to 4.8 x 10(-8) and 2.0 x 10(-6) S cm(-1) at about 25 and 100 degrees C, respectively, were obtained for n = 20. FT-IR data demonstrated that the hydrogen bonding interactions present in the non-doped d-PCL(530)/siloxane host hybrid matrix were significantly influenced by the inclusion of Mn(ClO4)(2) which promoted the formation of more oxyethylene/urethane and urethane/urethane aggregates. In addition, the Mn2+ ions bonded to all the ``free{''} C = O groups of the urethane cross-links and to some of the ``free{''} ester groups of the amorphous PCL(530) chains. In the electrolytes, the ClO4- ions were found ``free{''} and bonded to the Mn2+ ions along a bidentate configuration. The magnitude of the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) hyperfine constant of the analyzed samples (A approximate to 90 x 10(-4)cm(-1)) suggested that the bonding between Mn2+ ions and the surrounding ligands is moderately ionic. The synthetized d-PCL(530)/siloxanenMn (ClO4)(2) biohybrids have potential application in paramagnetic, photoelectrochemical and electrochromic devices. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
