Dispersion of functional tetraphenylporphyrin-ligated metal into ultra-thin flexible acrylate films. 2. Oxygen-uptake properties.
Cobalt(II) meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (CoTPP)/acrylate hybrid thin films were prepared by CoTPP sublimation and reactive monomer evaporation onto the glass substrate in vacuum conditions. Deposited CoTPP/acrylate thin films were in situ photopolymerized. The oxygen-uptake behaviors of CoTPP/acrylate films were investigated by means of sorption measurements, monitored by gravimetric means, and analyzed using dual mode sorption model. The loading percent of CoTPP in the film was adjusted up to 60% by controlling the CoTPP sublimation rate. The thickness of the CoTPP/acrylate hybrid film was about 200 nm and oxygen-uptake data obtained from the sorption measurements indicated that CoTPP molecules in the CoTPP/acrylate hybrid films were able to bind oxygen molecules reversibly.
