Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of cold chain transportation intelligent packaging, and particularly relates to a time-temperature indicating label for monitoring products that need to be transported below room temperature. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the commodity circulation link, temperature is usually one of the most difficult factors to control and deeply affects the true quality of commodities. With the improvement of residents' living standards and the gradual attention of consumers to the quality and safety of fresh products and pharmaceuticals, the modern logistics industry, especially the cold chain logistics link, is being paid more and more attention. [Tgab C, et al. Journal of Food Engineering, 2021] In recent years, although the cold chain transportation technology in China has been significantly improved, the overall cold chain loss and corruption rate is still high, and it is still in the initial stage, which cannot meet the demand of the rapidly developing cold chain transportation market. Therefore, dynamic monitoring of product quality during the flow process is very important.
[0003] Time Temperature Indicator (TTI) is considered as an ideal solution to monitor the safety of food, medicine and other products in real time. [Pandian A T, et al. Journal of Food Measurement and Characterization, 2021, 15(2)] As a part of product packaging, it can monitor the temperature change in the transportation link, thereby making up for the problem that the traditional shelf life does not match the actual circulation period, and providing effective basis for retailers and consumers to judge whether the product quality is qualified. Based on the working principle, time temperature indicator can be divided into three types: diffusion type, chemical type and biological type. Diffusion type time temperature indicator uses the diffusion migration of indicator substance on the substrate to play the role of time temperature indication. For example, the hot melt wax diffusion type indicator of 3M company in the United States, when the ambient temperature reaches the working temperature of the indicator, the wax melted by heat will start to flow along the predetermined capillary to realize the indication of time-temperature. Chemical type time temperature indicator indicates the freshness of the product based on the irreversible color change caused by chemical reaction (mainly polymerization reaction). There are relatively many types of such time temperature indicators, which will cause visible color change with the progress of the reaction, and consumers can judge the quality of goods more intuitively. Biological type time temperature indicator mainly indicates through the change of pH color developer caused by the action of biological enzyme and substrate. There are many development and researches around this kind of indicator at home and abroad, and a small number of varieties have been put into commercial use. Although the above three types of time temperature indicators are very beneficial to the circulation of goods and can give consumers information about the actual quality of goods, they are still not widely promoted and applied in China due to factors such as cost benefit, reliability, reusability and so on.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0044] In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort belong to the protection scope of the present application.
[0045] Embodiment 1:
[0046]
[0047] In an oxygen-free glove box, a sample was weighed according to 1wt% guest TN:99wt% host TPBi, poured onto a quartz glass sheet, and then placed on a heating table. The sample was heated to 350℃, and after the sample was melted, the molten liquids were mixed uniformly, and then rapidly cooled to room temperature to obtain a transparent glassy film, which was the target organic long afterglow composition 1wt% TN@TPBi cold chain transportation identification label.
[0048] As shown in Figure 2 (a), after the identification label was irradiated with 365nm ultraviolet light at 80K, information storage was performed at different temperatures between 100K and 400K for 5 minutes, and then the temperature was raised to 450K to read the thermoluminescence curve. According to the experimental data, the label has excellent optical information storage performance before 250K, and the storage capacity of optical information greatly decreases after 300K. And the storage temperature of 250K(-20℃) is widely used in the transportation temperature of drugs and vaccines, so it is considered that the organic long afterglow composition 1wt% TN@TPBi label has potential application in cold chain transportation.
[0049] Subsequently, as shown in Figure 2 (b), after the identification label was irradiated with 365nm ultraviolet light at 250K, optical information writing was performed; at 250K, storage was performed for 1 hour to 24 hours; and then the temperature was raised to 450K to read the thermoluminescence curve. According to the experimental data, the intensity of thermoluminescence gradually decreases with the increase of storage time. As shown in Figure 2 (c), the fitting of the intensity attenuation of the thermoluminescence curve for 1 hour to 24 hours can draw the fitting curve of storage time and integral intensity and calculate the correlation function, that is, I=0.59exp(-t / 9.34)+0.45.
[0050] In the actual application process of cold chain transport identification tag, when reaching the destination, the tag is removed and heated to 450K, the stored optical information is fully released, and the optical information is read by a photomultiplier tube detector, a thermoluminescence curve of temperature versus light intensity is drawn, and the area of the thermoluminescence curve is integrated to obtain a storage energy intensity value, which is compared with a standard time-storage energy intensity curve. If the obtained storage energy intensity value is on the standard curve, it means that the drug, vaccine and other products that need to be stored below room temperature have not been changed, and it is determined to be qualified. If the obtained storage energy intensity value is below the standard curve, it means that the drug, vaccine and other products that need to be stored below room temperature are exposed to higher temperature during transportation or the transportation time is longer than the rated time, and it is determined to be unqualified. The authenticity of the cold chain transport identification tag can be determined by the specific spectrum emitted by the long afterglow.
[0051] Example 2:
[0052] Under normal temperature and pressure, accurately weigh 4 mmol of zinc acetate and 12 mmol of potassium fluoride in a mixed solution of deionized water and anhydrous ethanol, add appropriate amount of 1 mol / L manganese nitrate solution and oleic acid according to the doping concentration, stir and mix at room temperature, and keep magnetic stirring at a speed of 800 revolutions per minute for 1 hour. The obtained milky white precursor solution is transferred from the beaker to the inner liner of the polytetrafluoroethylene reaction kettle, and the cover is closed. The reaction kettle is placed in a constant temperature drying box and heated to 180℃, and kept for 12 hours. After the reaction is completed, it is naturally cooled to room temperature. The reaction product solution is taken out, centrifuged at 8000 revolutions per minute, and the bottom precipitate is reserved. Repeat the ultrasonic dispersion and centrifugal washing with a mixed solution of ethanol and water three times, and finally dry the obtained product in an oven at 70℃ for 12 hours to obtain long afterglow nano fluorescent powder.
[0053] Weigh 0.2 g of the nano-fluoride powder obtained by the above method into a small beaker, add epoxy resin AB glue (A glue and B glue in a mass ratio of 2:1) according to a certain powder-glue ratio, stir the mixture with a glass rod to fully mix the powder and the flexible carrier material, and use a spatula to evenly coat the mixture on aluminum foil paper. The coated film is transferred to an oven and pre-cured at 80℃ for 1 hour, and then cured at 150℃ for 3 hours to obtain an inorganic long afterglow flexible material time-temperature indicating tag.
[0054] As shown in Figure 3 As shown in (a), after the identification tag is irradiated by X-rays at 263K, the tag stores information at different temperatures within 200K to 450K for 5 minutes, and then the temperature is raised to 550K to read the thermoluminescence curve. According to the experimental data, the tag has excellent optical information storage performance before 275K, and the storage capacity of optical information decreases significantly after 275K. It can be considered that the inorganic long afterglow flexible material KZnF3:Mn tag has application prospects in the circulation of fresh products.
[0055] Subsequently, as Figure 3 shown in (b), at a temperature of 263K, the identification label is irradiated with X-rays for optical information writing; it is stored for 0 to 120 minutes at a temperature of 263K; then the temperature is raised to 550K, and the thermoluminescence curve is read. From the experimental data, it can be obtained that the thermoluminescence intensity decreases with the extension of the storage time. As Figure 3 shown in (c), the integral intensity of the thermoluminescence curve stored for 0 to 120 minutes is fitted with a mathematical function, and the corresponding fitting curve and related function can be plotted, that is, I = 0.23exp(-t / 23.06) + 0.76.
[0056] In the actual application process of the cold chain transportation identification label, when arriving at the destination, the label is removed and heated to 550K to fully release the stored optical information, and the optical information is read with a photomultiplier detector. The thermoluminescence curve of temperature versus light intensity is made, and the area of the thermoluminescence curve is integrated to obtain the stored energy intensity value, and it is compared with the standard curve of storage energy intensity versus time. If the obtained stored energy intensity value is on the standard curve, it means that products such as drugs and vaccines that need to be stored below room temperature have not mutated and are judged to be qualified; if the obtained stored energy intensity value is below the standard curve, it means that products such as drugs and vaccines that need to be stored below room temperature have been exposed to higher temperatures during transportation or the transportation duration is longer than the rated duration, and it is judged to be unqualified. And the authenticity of the cold chain transportation identification label can be determined by the specific spectrum emitted by the long afterglow.
[0057] In summary, the present invention provides a time-temperature indicating label and its application. By replacing the long afterglow luminescent material and selecting different carrier materials, the present invention can realize the preparation of a time-temperature indicating label that can be reused, reliable and stable, and easy to detect. And an application method of this type of time-temperature indicating label in the cold chain transportation field is provided. Through experimental data, it fully demonstrates the feasibility of using the long afterglow luminescent material as a cold chain transportation label and its excellent photophysical properties. It can be foreseen that this type of time-temperature indicating label will have a wide range of applications in the cold chain transportation field.
[0058] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention.
