Title: | Luminescent Properties of Lanthanoid-Poly(Sodium Acrylate) Composites: Insights on the Interaction Mechanism | Authors: | Matsushita, Alan F Y Tapia, María José Pais, Alberto António Caria Canelas Valente, Artur José Monteiro |
Keywords: | Fluorescence quenching; Lanthanoid complex; Metal-organic gel; Polymer composite; Responsive gel | Issue Date: | 9-Jun-2020 | Publisher: | MDPI | Project: | UID/QUI/UI0313/2020 | Serial title, monograph or event: | Polymers | Volume: | 12 | Issue: | 6 | Abstract: | The interaction between polyelectrolytes and metal ions is governed by different types of interactions, leading to the formation of different phases, from liquid state to weak gels, through an appropriate choice of metal ion/polyelectrolyte molar ratio. We have found that lanthanide ions, europium(III) and terbium(III), are able to form polymer composites with poly(sodium acrylate). That interaction enhances the luminescent properties of europium(III) and terbium(III), showing that Eu3+/poly(sodium acrylate) (PSA) and Tb3+/PSA composites have a highly intense red and green emission, respectively. The effect of cations with different valences on the luminescent properties of the polymer composites is analyzed. The presence of metal ions tends to quench the composite emission intensity and the quenching process depends on the cation, with copper(II) being by far the most efficient quencher. The interaction mechanism between lanthanoid ions and PSA is also discussed. The composites and their interactions with a wide range of cations and anions are fully characterized through stationary and non-stationary fluorescence, high resolution scanning electronic microscopy and X-ray diffraction. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/90814 | ISSN: | 2073-4360 | DOI: | 10.3390/polym12061314 | Rights: | openAccess |
