AI Technical Summary
Existing polysaccharide-based room temperature phosphorescent materials are difficult to prepare and have short luminescence lifetimes. Traditional petroleum-based room temperature phosphorescent materials are toxic and difficult to degrade, which limits their application in textiles.
By using arylboronic acid derivatives to bond with cotton cellulose chains via BO bonding, and utilizing the microstructural environment of cellulose, long-afterglow multicolor phosphorescent textiles were prepared. Mild reaction conditions and non-toxic organic solvents were used to achieve the bonding between phosphor molecules and cellulose chains.
The preparation of long-afterglow multicolor phosphorescent textiles has been achieved, while maintaining the properties of cellulose, simplifying the processing, reducing dependence on toxic solvents, and making it suitable for large-scale production.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the fields of textile printing and dyeing, and luminescent anti-counterfeiting, and specifically relates to a method for preparing long-afterglow multicolor phosphorescent textiles using arylboronic acid derivatives. Background Technology
[0002] The long lifespan of room-temperature phosphorescent (RTP) materials makes them promising for applications in optoelectronics, sensing, bioimaging, and advanced security and anti-counterfeiting. However, the synthesis of traditional petroleum-based RTP materials is limited by the expensive and toxic organic solvents used, the stringent reaction conditions, and the difficulty in degrading petroleum-based materials. Polysaccharide-based materials, on the other hand, are green, environmentally friendly, and utilize renewable and biodegradable raw materials, making them an important direction for the development of the international new materials industry.
[0003] Currently, there are many materials with polysaccharide-based room-temperature phosphorescence, such as cellulose, lignin, starch, and sodium alginate, which have been extensively reported. However, these materials suffer from drawbacks such as microcrystallization, harsh reaction conditions, and short luminescence lifetimes, significantly increasing the difficulty of preparation and hindering the requirements of green environmental protection and sustainable development. Therefore, developing an environmentally friendly, biodegradable, and tunable multicolor phosphorescent textile is of significant practical importance. Arylboronic acid and its derivatives, as phosphorescent molecules, contain benzene rings with varying degrees of conjugation, enabling the prepared phosphorescent fabrics to possess long-afterglow, multicolor, and tunable RTP emission characteristics. Furthermore, they exhibit stability, low toxicity, and environmental friendliness, making them valuable in the research and application of organic small-molecule room-temperature phosphorescent materials. Cellulose fibers possess intra-chain hydrogen bonds, inter-chain hydrogen bonds, hydrogen bonds in crystalline and amorphous regions, and non-centrosymmetric hydrogen bonds, which endow cellulose chains with properties such as stability, rigidity, and reactive sites. A large number of free hydrogen bonds are combined with phosphor molecules by boron-oxygen (BO) covalent bonds, promoting intersystem crossing (ISC), enhancing π-π interactions, and facilitating rigid stacking structures, thereby increasing phosphorescence lifetime and realizing long-afterglow multicolor phosphorescent textiles. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method for preparing long-afterglow multicolor phosphorescent textiles using arylboronic acid derivatives.
[0005] To address the above problems, this invention provides a method for preparing long-afterglow multicolor phosphorescent textiles using arylboronic acid derivatives, comprising the following steps:
[0006] Step 1): Arylboronic acid, alkali, organic solvent and water are mixed to prepare different types of arylboronic acid working solutions and then ultrasonically vibrated.
[0007] Step 2): Place the fabric in the arylboric acid working solution, complete the dyeing and color fixing in the dyeing machine, and then remove it to cool naturally;
[0008] Step 3): Take out the fabric, wash it, and then place it in an oven to dry, obtaining the finished phosphorescent fabric. Seal and dry it.
[0009] Preferably, in step 1), the arylboronic acid is at least one of 2-triphenylenylboronic acid (TP-B), phenanthrene-9-boronic acid (Phe9-B), and 1-pyreneboronic acid (1Py-B); when the arylboronic acid is 2-triphenylenylboronic acid (TP-B), its amount (owf) is 0.5-5%; when the arylboronic acid is phenanthrene-9-boronic acid (Phe9-B), its amount (owf) is 0.5-4%; and when the arylboronic acid is 1-pyreneboronic acid (1Py-B), its amount (owf) is 0.5-3%.
[0010] Preferably, in step 1), the alkali agent is at least one of ammonia, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium carbonate, and cesium carbonate, and the dosage is 5-40 g / L.
[0011] Preferably, in step 1), the organic solvent is at least one of ethanol, methanol, acetone, and tetrahydrofuran.
[0012] Preferably, in step 1), the volume ratio of organic solvent to water is 1:9-1:4, and the total amount of organic solvent and water used is 5-20 times the weight of the fabric in step 2).
[0013] Preferably, in step 1), the ultrasonic oscillation time is 30-60 minutes.
[0014] Preferably, in step 2), the fabric includes at least one of cotton, viscose fiber, wool, silk, and polyamide fiber; the fabric is a pre-treated fabric that has undergone degreasing and impurity removal.
[0015] Preferably, in step 2), the dyeing and fixing temperature is 80-85℃ and the time is 20-60min.
[0016] Preferably, in step 3), the washing method is to rinse with deionized water 4-5 times.
[0017] Preferably, in step 3), the drying temperature is 70-105℃ and the time is 30-60min.
[0018] The BO bond bonding mechanism in this invention is as follows: First, under alkaline conditions (pH≥10), the arylboronic acid derivative phosphor molecule provides an empty orbital and coordinates with the oxygen atom on the OH- group by providing a lone pair of electrons, forming an arylboronic acid anion. Then, it bonds to the cotton cellulose through a borate ester bond (-BOC-) with the hydroxyl group on the cotton cellulose chain, forming phosphorescent cotton.
[0019] The phosphorescence emission mechanism in this invention is as follows: the conjugated structure in arylboronic acid absorbs ultraviolet light, and π electrons are excited to transition to the excited state (π→π*, S0→Sn, n≥1). The excited state electrons undergo an intersystem crossing process (ISC) from the singlet state to the triplet state (S1→Tn, n≥1). Due to the rigid environment provided by the boron-oxygen bond and the intra- and inter-chain hydrogen bonds of the cotton fiber chain, the electrons finally transition to the ground state (T1→S0) through nonradiative transition. This process is a phosphorescent transition.
[0020] The advantages of this invention are that it uses non-toxic, inexpensive, and readily available organic solvents and substrates, effectively reducing dependence on toxic and expensive organic solvents and inorganic phosphorescent materials. The process of phosphor molecules bonding with hydroxyl groups on the cellulose chains of cotton fabric is simple and rapid. The properties of the treated cotton fabric remain basically unchanged, thus obtaining long-afterglow multicolor phosphorescent cotton fabric. This provides a feasible basis for the large-scale batch processing and application of long-afterglow multicolor phosphorescent textiles.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0022] 1. This invention bonds arylboronic acids to the cellulose chains of pure cotton fabrics, utilizing the fine microstructure environment of the fiber to solve the problems of poor solubility, low dyeing rate, low phosphorescence lifetime, and weak and short afterglow of arylboronic acids.
[0023] 2. The reaction conditions of this invention are mild, and the multicolor phosphorescence can be controlled by changing the conjugation degree of the arylboronic acid derivative.
[0024] 3. The present invention adopts a dyeing process, which is simple and easy to prepare on a large scale. Attached Figure Description
