Structural identification of initial compounds and products were carried out by using FT-IR and H-1 and C-13 NMR spectroscopy. The electroactive materials DSNSC-1 and DSNSC-2 were directly coated on to ITO glass surface by using electrochemical polymerization process. The results clearly indicate that the length of side alkyl chain has a major impact on optical and electrochemical properties of these polymers. Poly-DSNC-2 with longer side alkyl chain exhibits a high contrast ratio (Delta T% = 68% at 850 nm), a response time of about 0.8 s, and high coloration efficiency (352 cm(2) C-1) and retained its performance by 97.1% even after 5000 cycles.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessSoluble Conducting PolymerColoration EfficiencyOptical-PropertiesCarbazoleElectropolymerizationDevicesGreenPolyamidesFilmsThe New Branched Multielectrochromic Materials: Enhancing the Electrochromic Performance via Longer Side Alkyl ChainArticle44218407841410.1021/ma2013833Q1WOS:0002963083000072-s2.0-80455162550Q1
