Description

Technical Field

[0002] Porous polymer materials have shown excellent performance in gas adsorption, liquid adsorption, water treatment, separation, heterogeneous catalysis, electrochemical energy storage and other fields due to their high porosity, adjustable pore structure and chemical diversity. The pen tip of the fluorescent pen adopts the characteristics of liquid adsorption. The high-performance porous material is soft in texture and is formed by semi-molten molds using only one material. At present, more than 80% of the fluorescent pens in the domestic market are fiber pens. The writing feel of fiber pens is poor. During the molding process of fiber pens, a variety of industrial glues need to be mixed and bonded, and polished into various shapes with a grinding wheel. Dust is generated during the production process, which affects the health of manufacturing workers and is not environmentally friendly, and the adhesive used does not meet food grade requirements. These pen tips feel rough and the ink output is unstable. In comparison, the porous polymer fluorescent pen tip is soft and the material is safe. Summary of the invention

[0057] The results are shown in Table 1. The water absorption rate of the porous polymer fluorescent pen tip prepared by the preparation method of Example 1 is 39.45%, which is lower than that of Example 2. Compared with Example 3, the water absorption rate of the porous polymer fluorescent pen tip prepared by Example 3 is higher than that of Example 2, indicating that the increase of the amount of surfactant used within a certain range can effectively improve the water absorption rate of the porous polymer fluorescent pen tip; compared with Example 4, Example 2 shows that the reduction of the amount of surfactant used within a certain range will reduce the water absorption rate of the prepared porous polymer fluorescent pen tip; compared with Example 5, Example 2 shows that on the basis of using a surfactant, the use of N-cocoyl-L-glutamate monosodium can further improve the water absorption rate of the prepared porous polymer fluorescent pen tip; compared with Example 6, Example 5 shows that the water absorption rate of the prepared porous polymer fluorescent pen tip can be further improved by using N-cocoyl-L-glutamate monosodium on the basis of using a surfactant; compared with Example 6, Example 7 shows that the water absorption rate of the prepared porous polymer fluorescent pen tip can be further improved by using N-cocoyl-L-glutamate monosodium on the basis of using a surfactant.

Compared with Example 3, the water-drawing time of the porous polymer fluorescent pen tip prepared by Example 3 is lower than that of Example 2, indicating that the increase in the amount of surfactant used within a certain range can effectively reduce the water-drawing time of the porous polymer fluorescent pen tip. Compared with Example 4, Example 2 shows that the reduction in the amount of surfactant used within a certain range will increase the water-drawing time of the prepared porous polymer fluorescent pen tip.
