Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of polymer luminescent materials technology, specifically relating to a tetraphenylethylene-based fluorescent monomer, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, with the vigorous development of science and technology, fluorescence sensing technology has been widely studied due to its high sensitivity, good selectivity, simple operation, low cost, high resolution, and ability to achieve rapid in-situ online detection in vivo. Fluorescent monomers exhibit obvious fluorescence emission or quenching when exposed to ultraviolet lamps, making this method relatively simple and fast. Fluorescence sensing technology is also widely used in important fields such as environmental monitoring, ion and small molecule detection, bioimaging, and medical diagnosis.

[0003] Copper is widely used in all aspects of life, and it usually undergoes uniform corrosion during use. However, even uniform corrosion in printed circuit boards (PCBs) with copper as the substrate can have a significant impact on the entire board. To address this issue, researchers such as M. Schwind, W. Cheng, and K. Habib have used traditional techniques such as nanoplasma sensing (Journal of the Electrochemical Society, 160(2013)C487-C492), electrochemical characterization (International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 14(2019)4254-4263), and holographic interferometry (Corrosion Science, 40(1998)1435-1440) to monitor the early stages of copper corrosion in PCBs. Although these methods provide accurate results, most have certain limitations; for example, electrochemical characterization and holographic interferometry are complex and cumbersome to use, requiring long detection cycle times. Therefore, these traditional methods cannot provide a quick and simple inspection of localized copper substrate corrosion areas in PCBs. Scholar Guo H (ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2023) proposed developing a reusable metal surface corrosion detection sensor by combining fluorescent monomers with hydrogels. This sensor can detect trace corrosion by detecting iron ions released from the environment, with a detection limit as low as 10. - 5 However, this sensor still requires an ultraviolet lamp for auxiliary detection and cannot achieve direct visual detection.

[0004] To address the shortcomings of the aforementioned methods for detecting copper ions, the search for a copper ion-responsive fluorescent polymer with high sensitivity, good repeatability, and visual observation capability is currently a key research focus in the field of polymer luminescent materials.

[0164] Test Example 8

[0165] In this test example, a printed bare copper board was sprayed with anti-corrosion paint. Then, a scratch tester was used to damage the anti-corrosion coating on the bare copper surface to artificially create local defects. The fluorescent polymer described in this embodiment of the invention was then attached to the defect. The circuit board was placed in a salt spray chamber for a neutral salt spray test to accelerate the corrosion rate of the copper at the local defects. After 24 hours of salt spray testing, no obvious corrosion was observed by the naked eye at the local defects where the fluorescent polymer was not attached. However, the fluorescent polymer attached to the local defects underwent a visually observable color change, changing from yellow to green. Therefore, the degree of corrosion can be judged based on the color change of the fluorescent polymer. Figure 20 This is an image illustrating the effect of in-situ detection of localized corrosion in a printed circuit board using fluorescent polymers, according to an embodiment of the present invention.
