Abstract

α-RuCl₃ was identified as a new host for polymer intercalation using different intercalative methods. It is found that Li_0.2RuCl₃ exfoliates in water into single [RuCl₃]^x- layers which can be used to encapsulate macromolecules. RuCl₃/polymer nanocomposites such as Li_0.2(PEO)_xRuCl₃ (PEO=poly[ethylene oxide]), Li_0.2(PVP)_xRuCl₃ (PVP=polyvinylpyrrolidone) and (PPY)_xRuCl₃ (PPY=polypyrrole) were successfully prepared. (PANI)_xRuCl₃ (PANI=polyaniline) was prepared by in situ intercalative polymerization directly from α-RuCl₃. These nanocomposites were characterized with Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), Infrared spectroscopy (IR), Powder X-ray Diffraction (XRD), magnetic measurements, conductivity measurements and thermopower measurements.
