Phase behavior of PCBM blends with different conjugated polymers
Abstract
In this work the phase behavior of [6,6]-phenyl C(61)-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) blends with different poly(phenylene vinylene) (PPV) samples is investigated by means of standard and modulated temperature differential scanning calorimetry (DSC and MTDSC) and rapid heat-cool calorimetry (RHC). The PPV conjugated polymers include poly(2-methoxy-5-(3',7'-dimethyloctyloxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene) (MDMO-PPV), High T(g)-PPV which is a copolymer, and poly((2-methoxy-5-phenethoxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene) (MPE-PPV). Comparisons of these PPV:PCBM blends with regioregular poly(3-hexyl thiophene) (P3HT):PCBM blends are made to see the different component miscibilities among different blends. The occurrence of liquid-liquid phase separation in the molten state of MDMO-PPV:PCBM and High T(g)-PPV:PCBM blends is indicated by the coexistence of double glass transitions for blends with a PCBM weight fraction of around 80 wt%. This is in contrast to the P3HT:PCBM blends where no phase separation is observed. Due to its high cooling rate (about 2000 K min(-1)), RHC proves to be a useful tool to investigate the phase separation in PPV:PCBM blends through the glass transition of these crystallizable blends. P3HT is found to have much higher thermal stability than the PPV samples.
