Abstract
The present invention provides a material for light-heat energy accumulation and conversion comprising a composition of a high-molecular compound having norbonadien derivative group as side chain with a catalytic matter converting a quadrycylan derivative group of high-molecular side chain into the norbonadien derivative group. The invention also provides a material for light-heat energy accumulation and conversion, characterized by putting to an esterification reaction high-molecular compounds having an epoxy group as side chain with norbonadien carbonic acid or its derivative.
Claims4
A material for light-heat energy accumulation and conversion comprising a composition in solid form of a polymer having a norbonadien derivative group as a side chain, capable of converting into the corresponding quadrycyclan derivative group in the presence of light, and a cobalt complex catalyst compound capable of converting the quadrycyclan derivative group back to the original norbonadien derivative group, said catalyst being present in an amount sufficient to accomplish this conversion.
