Abstract

AbstractThis work proposes a novel dopant material to improve the energy storage in azo molecules. Organometallic material with platinum base atom (sodium hexachloroplatinate (IV) (Na2PtCl6)) was used as a dopant material in polyethylene oxide‐methyl red (PEO‐MR) films. The photoisomerization kinetics, the energy storage, and the electrical conductivity distribution of PEO‐(MR‐Na2PtCl6) films are investigated and studied. In addition, the effect of Na2PtCl6 on the chemical and crystal structure is also premeditated. It can be concluded that adding Na2PtCl6 to PEO‐MR film improves the energy storage in the azo molecules. Therefore, the addition of Na2PtCl6 into PEO‐MR films can be proposed for different applications, especially in molecular solar thermal energy storage media.
