Redox-active π-conjugated polymer nanotubes with viologen for encapsulation and release of fluorescent dye in the nanospace.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report the encapsulation of negatively charged Au nanoparticles and anionic fluorescent (FL) dye in the inner cavity of redox-active cationic polymer nanotubes with viologen via electrostatic interaction and the release of the FL dye from the FL dye confined in the cavity of the polymer nanotubes by electrochemical and chemical reduction.

Redox-Active Metal-Organic Nanostructure Polymers and Their Remarkable Electrochemical Behavior
A number of redox-active coordination polymers (CPs) or metal- organic frameworks (MOFs) have been successfully synthesized using transition metals and bridging ligands. This article aims to deal with gathering the aforementioned disperse issues regarding the electroactive CPs. It also goes towards illustrating the effects of various factors on the electrochemical behavior of CPs including...
متن کاملSolvent-responsive polymer nanocapsules with controlled permeability: encapsulation and release of a fluorescent dye by swelling and deswelling.
A solvent-responsive polymer nanocapsule swells and deswells in response to a change in solvent composition, and the permeability of the shell of the nanocapsule can be controlled simply by swelling and deswelling; encapsulation and release of a fluorescent dye is achieved by a swelling-deswelling-swelling cycle.
متن کاملComparison of theoretical effects of encapsulation floxuridine anticancer drug with boron nitride nanotube and carbon nanotube with NBO and QTAIM studies
Background: The purpose of using nano-carriers for drugs delivery, such as nanotubes, is slow release of drug and reducing side effects of drugs. Drugs are very active due to their many functional groups. Therefore, reactivity of drug is reduced by being in nanotube field due to electronic resonance of drug with nanotube and it stays longer in body. As a result, less amount of drug is used and ...
متن کاملRecent development of carbon nanotubes materials as counter electrode for dye-sensitized solar cells
Dye-sensitized solar cells present promising low-cost alternatives to the conventional Silicon (Si)-based solar cells. The counter electrode generally consists of Pt deposited onto FTO plate. Since Pt is rare and expensive metal, nanostructured carbonaceous materials have been widely investigated as a promising alternative to replace it. Carbon nanotubes have shown significant properties such...
متن کاملKey factors in determining the arrangement of π-conjugated oligomers inside carbon nanotubes.
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations with dispersion corrections elucidated the key factors for determining the arrangement of π-conjugated oligomers inside a carbon nanotube. The current study considered methyl-terminated terfurans as guests inside a host tube; the results were compared with those obtained in previous studies for methyl-terminated terthiophenes inside a nanotube. DFT c...
