In this paper, we discuss the photoluminescence (PL) properties of a new copolymer composite synthesized by ultrasonically combining 2-amino 6-nitrobenzothiazole-melamine-formaldehyde copolymer with activated charcoal in a 1:2 molar ratio. Physicochemical analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and spectral analysis were used to characterize the synthesized copolymer and it’s composite. Molecular weight has been evaluated by non-aqueous conductometric titration method. The photoluminescence properties of newblended copolymer-charcoal composite were analyzed using the RF-501 (PC) S CE (LVD) MODEL PL spectrometer. The overall goal of this work is to synthesize new copolymer-charcoal composite and examine their photoluminescent properties, with significant input from current researchers in the field. When the copolymer is excited at 365 nm, it emits intense blue light with a wavelength of 440 nm, which is appropriate for OLEDs.

Abstract


In this paper, we discuss the photoluminescence (PL) properties of a new copolymer composite synthesized by ultrasonically combining 2-amino 6-nitrobenzothiazole-melamine-formaldehyde copolymer with activated charcoal in a 1:2 molar ratio. Physicochemical analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and spectral analysis were used to characterize the synthesized copolymer and it’s composite. Molecular weight has been evaluated by non-aqueous conductometric titration method. The photoluminescence properties of newblended copolymer-charcoal composite were analyzed using the RF-501 (PC) S CE (LVD) MODEL PL spectrometer. The overall goal of this work is to synthesize new copolymer-charcoal composite and examine their photoluminescent properties, with significant input from current researchers in the field. When the copolymer is excited at 365 nm, it emits intense blue light with a wavelength of 440 nm, which is appropriate for OLEDs.
