Özet
Conductive polymers and hydrogels are two of the hot prospect polymer types that are used for new stimuli responsive materials. In this study, one-step preparation of electroconductive composite hydrogels containing polypyrrole (PPy) and N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) using free radical polymerization technique was achieved with N,N-methylenebisacrylamide as a crosslinker and ammonium peroxy disulphate (APS) as initiator, in mixture of water/isopropyl alcohol. The equilibrium swelling degree of the poly(NIPAM)-pyrrole) electroconductive composite hydrogel was 9.88 g of H2O/g dry polymer. According to TGA results, the thermal stability of the prepared composite poly(NIPAM-PPy) conductive hydrogel (700 degrees C) hydrogel is higher than that of pure poly(NIPAM) hydrogel (600 degrees C). Furthermore, prepared samples were characterized by FTIR, and SEM analyzes. Later, the samples were pressured into pellets so that electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements were taken between 10 and 10 MHz at room temperature. The dielectric constant value of composite poly(NIPAM-PPy) hydrogel at 10 Hz is almost 10 times higher than that of poly(NIPAM) hydrogel. Both samples' real and imaginary parts of dielectric constant decreased with increased frequency. Samples exhibited non-Debye relaxation since experimental data fit into dielectric model of Havriliak-Negami. Moreover, low frequency data yielded d.c. conductivity of the pure and composite samples as 3.74 x 10(-11) and 1.02 x 10(-8) S/cm, respectively. Real part of impedance at low frequencies also points out similar to 10(3) times lower resistance values at 10 Hz for composite poly(NIPAM-PPy) hydrogel. Therefore, EIS results support that electroconductive composite hydrogel fabrication was achieved using free radical polymerization technique.
