本工作基于前期基础,研究一种侧链含有Ru(II)(Tpy)2功能基团的水凝胶的制备方法,可逆的响应性,以及BZ反应在凝胶体系中的发生情况。
This work aims at developing an approach to Ru(II)(Tpy)2-functionalized hydrogels and exploring the couplingof the hydrogels with the Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction. Based on free radical polymerization, two synthetic routes are developed. The first one is the direct gelation by copolymerization of acrylamide as hydrophilic component and Ru(II)(Tpy)2 as the functional group. The second one is carried out through a combined approach. A terpyridine-containing hydrogel is first prepared and then post-functionalized by coordination between Ru(III)(Tpy)Cl3 and terpyridine groups in the hydrogel network. Utilizing the synthetic hydrogels, the reversible redox responsiveness, the coupling with the BZ reaction, the occurrence and the self-oscillating properties of the BZ reaction in the hydrogel networks are studied.
