Zusammenfassung:Magnetic material ordering is indispensable for improvement of magnetic susceptibility in limited polymer matrix space. In this study, a polymer matrix is designed to orient FeCl 4 − . As a result of this design, magnetic properties are observed in the hybrid material. However, partial control of magnetic susceptibility is important for practical applications of magnetic polymer materials. Here, FeCl 3 was partially ordered using a photodegradable Fe complex and a polymer having shape memory properties, in which uniaxial orientation of polymer segments causes a temporary shape. Although FeCl 3 was phase-separated from polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), the complex composed of tetrabutylphosphonium cations and FeCl 4 − anions (TBP[FeCl 4 ]) was uniformly dispersed in the PMMA matrix and produced FeCl 3 by photodegradation. Interestingly, FeCl 3 produced by photoreaction was ordered during shape recovery, from a temporary shape, due to phase separation of Fe oxide from the polymer matrix. Furthermore, UV light was partially irradiated on the sample using a photomask, to partially order the iron oxide. Hybrid samples of ordered FeCl 3 exhibited a 1.6 μm-interval striped pattern. These samples exhibited three times the magnetic susceptibility of disordered FeCl 3 . This study makes contributions to the development of hybrid materials, incorporating inorganic materials into polymer matrix structures, thereby enhancing their properties, and utility. FeCl 3 in the polymer matrix can be partially ordered using photolithography. Ordered FeCl 3 has improved magnetic susceptibility.
