Solution-processable triarylamine-based electroactive high performance polymers for anodically electrochromic applications

This review focused on high-performance polymers with anodically electrochromic triarylamine units built into main chains or as pendants. The main aim of the review is to present the most important and common trends regarding polymer synthesis from the point of view of the introduction of triarylamine moiety into polymer chains and to demonstrate how the polymer structures influence their properties, which leads them to be suitable for optoelectronic device construction. This review also covers a majority of the works in the recent decade involving the synthesis and characteristic evaluation of the resulting electrochromic polymers as well as their structural design by using the respective monomers.
