The invention belongs to the technical field of functional materials, and discloses a preparation method and application of a photochromic
fiber material.The method comprises the following steps that 1,
furfural reacts with an
electron acceptor to prepare a DASA precursor; step 2, adding the DASA precursor into
dichloromethane to prepare a DASAs precursor solution, and then combining the DASAs precursor solution with an
electron donor to prepare a photochromic compound DASAs; step 3, mixing DMF and PVDF particles according to a set proportion to prepare a PVDF precursor solution; step 4, mixing the DASAs and the PVDF precursor solution to prepare an electrostatic
spinning solution; and 5, preparing the electrostatic
spinning solution into a
fiber material through an electrostatic
spinning technology. The photochromic
fiber prepared by the invention can realize efficient reversible color change within 10 seconds under
visible light irradiation; the DASAs photochromic compound is directly embedded into the fiber, so that the problems that a color changing agent is non-uniform in dispersion and easy to fall off and the loading efficiency in a
solid matrix is low in the prior art are solved, and the stability and the practicability of the material are remarkably improved.
