Two novel triphenylamine-based thiophene derivative monomers, 4-cyano-4',4″-di(4-methoxythiophen-2-yl)triphenylamine and 4-methoxy-4',4″-di(4-methoxythiophen-2-yl)triphenylamine, were successfully synthesized. The corresponding polymers including poly (4-cyano-4',4″-di(4-methoxythiophen-2-yl)triphenylamine) and poly (4-methoxy-4',4″-di(4-methoxythiophen-2-yl)triphenylamine) were electrochemically synthesized and characterized by multiple test method. The electrochemical measurements and spectroelectrochemical analyses revealed that both of the two polymers had quasi-reversible redox behavior and multi-electrochromic properties. The two polymer films showed reversible electrochemical oxidation, excellent optical contrasts in NIR region (62% at 1070 nm for the first polymer, and 86% at 1255 nm for the second polymer), satisfactory coloration efficiencies and fast switching times. The research on the application of the as prepared polymer in the fabrication of electrochromic device was also conducted, employing PCMTPA or PMMTPA as the anodically coloring materials.

Plant oils are becoming of high industrial importance due to the persisting challenges befalling with the utilization of fossil fuels. Thus, developing methodologies to produce multifunctional materials by taking advantage of the unique structure of plant oil is highly desired. In this study, castor oil served as a cross-linker and soft segments, by incorporating scalable rhodamine 6G derivatives, to systematically synthesize a series of smart polymers that possess self-toughening and multistimuli-responsive capabilities.

Increasing interest in chromic materials is due to the growing demand. However, most chromic materials exhibit color changes in response to only one stimulus, but there are multiple stimuli in nature. Therefore, the construction of multistimuli responsive chromic materials still faces great challenges.

Poly(azomethine)s containing thiophene with bridges pyridine, sulphur and oxygen were synthesized in two steps. Before, thiophene centric dialdehyde (DIAL-Th) compound was synthesized via elimination reaction of 4-hydroxy benzaldehyde with thiophene bromide. Then, poly(azomethine)s containing thiophene (PAZ-Th) unit were synthesized from condensation reactions of DIAL-Th with pyridine-3,5-diamine, 4,4'-thiodianiline and 4,4'-oxydianiline.
