Large-scale synthesis of polydimethylsiloxane as vitreous replacement applications.

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is a polymer that can be used as a vitreous substitute. To fulfill the need for PDMS on a large scale, synthesis of PDMS in a large number is also needed. Therefore, intensive research is needed to produce PDMS in large quantities.

Different Roles between PEDOT:PSS as Counter Electrode and PEDOT:Carrageenan as Electrolyte in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell Applications: A Systematic Literature Review.

Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) has been mostly used as a counter electrode to give a high performance of dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC). Recently, PEDOT doped by carrageenan, namely PEDOT:Carrageenan, was introduced as a new material to be applied on DSSC as an electrolyte. PEDOT:Carrageenan has a similar synthesis process as PEDOT:PSS, owing to their similar ester sulphate (-SOH) groups in both PSS and carrageenan.
