再エネ電力変換貯蔵に向けた水素結合性導電性高分子電極触媒の開発 Hydrogen-Bonding Conductive Polymer Electrocatalysts for Conversion and Storage of Renewable Electricity |
原田 祐弥・吉田 司 Yuya HARADA, Tsukasa YOSHIDA |
<要旨> Metal-free hydrogen-bonding conductive polymer electrocatalysts (HCPCs) are promising and sustainable candidates for conversion of renewable electricity into storable chemical energies to be used on demand. This article gives a short review on our recent explorations for the HCPCs. While the π-conjugated system of the polymer main chain affords electrical conductivity, the presence of hydrogen-bonding substituents are also essential for stabilization of reaction intermediates to exhibit electrocatalytic activities for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR). Such HCPCs are obtained either by oxidative chemical vapor deposition or electropolymerization deposition. Taking poly-dopamine (PDA) as an example, the reasons for selectivities of HER and CO2RR are discussed to project possible future challenges to obtain useful hydrocarbons as products.

ジャイロイド構造を用いた三次元H+伝導 Development of 3D Gyroid-Nanostructured Proton Conduction Pathway |
一川 尚広・小林 翼 Takahiro ICHIKAWA, Tsubasa KOBAYASHI |
<要旨> In situ polymerization of liquid-crystalline monomers in the self-assembled states is a unique strategy for creating highly-ordered-nanostructured polymer membranes. We have focused on the use of this strategy for developing gyroid nanostructured polymer films having a 3D continuous proton conduction pathway. A gemini-type amphiphile zwitterion monomer has been designed and synthesized. It forms bicontinuous cubic phases in the presence of appropriate amounts of bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide and water. By carrying out polymerization for the mixture in the liquid-crystalline state, a gyroid nanostructured polymer film with self-standing properties has been obtained. It shows a high ionic conductivity on the order of 10-1 S cm-1 when it is placed under high relataive humidity of 90%. The high ionic conductivity can be attributed to the formation of a proton hopping conduction pathway that is composed of hydrogen-bonding networks of water molecules along a gyroid minmal surface. Keywords: Gyroid / Bicontinuous Cubic Phase / Liquid Crystal / Self-Organization / Proton Conduction |

二・三次元 電子・イオン伝導性材料 2D, 3D Electron and Ionic Conductive Materials |
池田 太一 Taichi IKEDA |
<要旨> This article introduces two-dimensional electron conductive materials so-called “thiophene nanosheets” and ion conductive materials based on cationic glycidyl triazolyl polymers (cationic GTPs) with three-dimensional branched side chains. Thiophene nanosheets are made from foldable polymers consisting of phenyl-capped bithiophene, oligo(ethylene glycol) and turning units via intra- and inter-molecular self-assemblies. Thiophene units form two-dimensional crystals sandwiched by ethylene glycol layers, which can exhibit comparable carrier mobility as that observed in thiophene film prepared by vacuum vapor deposition. Cationic GTPs are synthesized using copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (Cu-AAC) between glycidyl azide polymer and alkyne derivatives of ionic liquids. Thanks to the high reactivity of Cu-AAC, poly(ionic liquid)s with branched side chains were successfully prepared. It was confirmed that the glass transition temperature decreases and the ionic conductivity increases with increasing the degree of the side chain branching. In case of cationic GTP with tri-branched side chains, the highest ionic conductivity of 3.6×10-5 S/cm was recorded (at 298 K, anhydrous condition).

柔軟性結晶を用いた潜熱蓄熱材 Phase-Change Materials Using Plastic Crystals |
中 建介 Kensuke NAKA |
<要旨> Phase-change materials (PCMs) have drawn great interest in the past few decades due to their capability of absorbing and releasing latent heat within a narrow temperature interval during phase change. The design of molecular alloys using n-alkanes are often used for this purpose. Encapsulation of this system constitutes an efficient way to prevent the leakage of melted PCMs. We found that mono-functionalized heptaisobutyl-substituted polyhedral octasilsesquioxane (POSS) derivatives (R-POSSs) exhibited orientationally disordered (OD) phase transition depending on their substitutions. The tested POSS derivatives showed variable sharp endothermic peaks between -29 to 60℃. The composite films were prepared by drop-casting of a chloroform solution of PMMA with R-POSS. No appearance change of films was observed despite the heating and cooling of the films on the hotplate due to no drastic density difference below and above the OD phase transition. This result suggests that the isobutyl-substituted POSS derivatives are expected to be good candidates for PCMs. Keywords: POSS / Orientationally Disordered Phase / Plastic Crystals / Silsesquioxane / Phase-Change Materials |
