Four novel triphenylamine-based polymers, PJK1, PJK2, PJK3 and PJK4 were successfully synthesized and fully characterized by H-1 NMR, UV-VIS spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry (CV), GPC and spectroelectrochemistry. These polymers are easily soluble in many common organic solvents, which make them appropriate for film deposition via spray-coating. We fabricated electrochromic cells comprising ITO-coated glass/polymer/gel electrolyte/ITO-coated glass and patterned the color change by applying direct current with different voltages. We report herein color changes, from the neutral to oxidized form as follows: for PJK1, orange to dark green; for PJK2, light yellow to reddish brown; for PJK3, light blue to grey; and for PJK4, green to bluish green. The majority of the copolymers exhibited very good thermal stabilities, as evidenced by less than a 5% weight loss in temperatures exceeding 400 degrees C. To further characterize, we simulated the electrochemical and optical properties, which are good agreement with the experimental data.
