Local Molecular Dynamics Studies of Polymer Chains — In Solution and in Bulk — Using the Fluorescence Anisotropy Decay Technique

  • Chapter
Photophysical and Photochemical Tools in Polymer Science

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 182))

Abstract

The fluorescence anisotropy decay (FAD) technique is first described, then the different expressions which have been proposed for the orientation autocorrelation function (OACF) of polymer chains are presented. Typical FAD curves of dilute and concentrated solutions of polystyrene labelled with an anthracene group in the middle of the chain are compared to the various OACF expressions and discussed. In the case of bulk polybutadiene, FAD results obtained either on anthracene labelled chains or on 9,10 dialkylanthracene probes free in the polymer matrix, show that the same type of OACF as for polymer solutions can account for the experimental data. Besides, the temperature dependence of the correlation time of the labelled polybutadiene appears to agree with the WLF equation derived from macroscopic viscoelastic measurements, proving that the segmental motions of about 20 bonds which lead to the FAD of labelled polybutadiene participate in the glass transition processes of this polymer.
