Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of organic light-emitting materials, specifically to a conductive polymer material, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Electrochromism is a phenomenon in which colors can change reversibly under voltage regulation. Due to its low energy consumption, memory properties, simple structure, and low cost, electrochromic devices have long been considered promising for commercial passive display applications, such as electronic tags and electronic paper. Since the 1970s, research on electrochromic devices has primarily focused on inorganic materials such as tungsten oxide. However, the development of inorganic electrochromic devices has also revealed some drawbacks that have hindered large-scale commercialization. The most significant problems are slow switching response and limited color options, which are mainly determined by the inherent characteristics of inorganic materials.

[0003] In liquid devices, 5,10-dimethyl-5,10-dihydrophenazine anodic electrochromic material, when matched with viologen, can be used to prepare electrochromic devices with good performance (ZL200580041480.5). However, as a small molecule material, its presence in a solution state in electrochromic devices poses a risk of leakage. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the many shortcomings of existing electrochromic materials, this invention provides a conductive polymer material, a preparation method, and an application.

[0005] The technical solution of the present invention is achieved in the following way: a conductive polymer material is provided, the molecular formula of which is as follows:

[0008] R is selected from alkyl (C) m H 2m+1 (m is a natural number from 1 to 20), benzyl, substituted benzyl, phenyl, substituted phenyl;

[0009] Ar is aryl or substituted aryl.

[0010] Preferably, the Ar is selected from the following:

[0012] Wherein, R′ is selected from H, alkyl (C m H 2m+1 (m is a natural number from 1 to 20), alkoxy groups, oligoether groups ( ).

[0013] Preferably, the conductive polymer material is selected from:

[0014]

[0015]

[0016]

[0017] .

[0018] In a second aspect of the present invention, a method for preparing the conductive polymer material is provided, the preparation process of which is as follows:

[0019]

[0020] Specifically, the steps include the following:

[0021] S1, 5,10-dihydro-phenazine (I) was dissolved in a solvent, and a catalyst and a haloalkanes (II) were added. The mixture was stirred until the reaction was complete, and the mixture was separated and purified to obtain 5-substituted-5,10-dihydro-phenazine (III).

[0022] S2, 1,4-dihydroxy-2,5-bis(bromomethyl)benzene (IV) and 2 equivalents of 5-substituted-5,10-dihydro-phenazine (III) reacted completely in a solvent to isolate the intermediate compound (V).

[0023] S3, intermediate compound (V) undergoes esterification with p-toluenesulfonyl chloride (molar ratio 1:2) to give compound (VI);

[0024] S4, compound (VI) and aryl diboronic acid ester derivative (B) (reaction in a 1:1 molar ratio) undergo a Suzuki coupling reaction with tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium as catalyst and toluene as solvent to obtain the target polymer (P).

[0025] Preferably, in step S1, the solvent is dimethoxyethane and the catalyst is n-butyllithium hexane;

[0026] After the reaction was complete, a saturated aqueous solution of sodium dithionate was added, and the mixture was extracted three times with dichloromethane. After drying with anhydrous sodium sulfate, the mixture was concentrated and 5-substituted-5,10-dihydro-phenazine (III) was obtained by dichloromethane / petroleum ether column chromatography.

[0027] Preferably, in step S2, the reaction is carried out in potassium carbonate and dichloromethane overnight at room temperature, washed three times with water, the organic phase is dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate, concentrated, and separated by column chromatography to obtain intermediate compound (V).

[0028] In a third aspect of the invention, the application of the aforementioned conductive polymer material in electrochromic devices is also provided.

[0029] The beneficial effects are as follows:

[0030] Small-molecule dihydrophenazine compounds have exhibited excellent device performance as anodic electrochromic materials. However, as integrated liquid devices, they pose risks of leakage and sinking. This invention combines the excellent color-changing properties of the dihydrophenazine structure with the conductivity of the main chain having a conjugated system to obtain a conductive polymer material containing dihydrophenazine functional groups with good conductivity. Large-area thin film devices can be prepared by solution spin coating / printing / coating and other processes and applied to electrochromic devices. Detailed Implementation

[0032] Based on the material synthesis, electrochromic thin film devices were prepared, and their device performance was investigated.

[0033] Fabrication of electrochromic devices:

[0034] Transparent ITO conductive glass cut into different sizes was first soaked in a mixed solvent of ammonia / hydrogen peroxide, then ultrasonically treated sequentially with deionized water, acetone, and isopropanol to obtain cleaned ITO glass. After removal, it was dried with dry nitrogen gas. A polymer sample was dissolved in toluene to prepare a 40 mg / mL solution, which was then spin-coated onto an ITO plate. This was then bonded to another ITO plate with adhesive, and an electrolyte solution was further injected using a liquid-filling method. The color change was observed by applying a voltage. Its electrochromic response time and driving voltage were tested.
