Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] Polymer thin films are applied in various fields of modern science and technology, such as liquid crystal display, photoetching, data storage, sensor, anti-reflection coating and drug release. In the polymer thin film system, due to the influence of space limitation and interface effect, the crystallization morphology structure is quite different from that of the bulk. The preparation of high-thermal-stability micro-nano structure helps to improve the thermal stability of the thin film and widen the application range of the polymer thin film in various fields.
[0003] Polyethylene oxide, also known as polyethylene oxide, is abbreviated as PEO, and its structural formula is (CH2CH2O) n PEO is a green degradable linear polymer with good crystallinity, thermoplasticity and water solubility.
[0004] The polyethylene oxide thin film is first crystallized at low temperature and then further crystallized at high temperature to form lamellar micro-nano structure with a “self-constrained” structure. The thinner lamellar structure formed at low temperature is in an “overheated state” under the protection of the thicker lamellar structure formed at high temperature, and therefore has high thermal stability.
