Summary
Photoinduced ionic conductivity in poly(ethylene glycol) 400 (PEG400)/malachite green leuco hydroxide (MGLOH) was analyzed with photochemical reaction of MGLOH in its matrix. The resonance structure in photogenerated cation lay in the favor of 4,4′-(dimethylamino) triphenylmethylcation (MG+) under UV irradiation. The change in the ionic conductivity was discussed with that in glass transition temperature (Tg) of the matrix on UV irradiation.
