Abstract

The coordinated polymer of poly(ethylene glycol) alleneyl methyl ether (PEGA) with iron (III) chloride (PEGA-FeCl 3) was prepared by radical mechanism and characterized by infrared spectroscopy and elemental analyses. The electrical properties were studied using D.C. electrical conductivity. The relationship between the activation energy (ΔE) and the temperature are given to illustrate the behaviour of the polymer. Investigation of the A.C. magnetic susceptibility of the PEGA-FeCl 3 reveals that the sample obeys the Curie–Weiss law to about 100°C, and behaves in a metallic fashion at higher temperatures. A correlation between the conductivity and the magnetic susceptibility of the doped polymer is discussed.
