It has good optical properties and has broad applications in fields such as light-emitting devices and light-emitting materials.
[0003] Currently, the preparation method of polyvinyl alcohol optical film mainly uses polyvinyl alcohol as the raw material, supplemented by additives such as plasticizers and surfactants to prepare a film-forming stock solution, which is cast or coated on a steel belt or roller, and obtained through processes such as drying.
[0004] The above method only optimizes the physical properties by using additives, only changes in the macroscopic field, and does not optimize the performance of polyvinyl alcohol from the molecular structure field to improve the product performance. Summary of the Invention

The silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film takes into account both excellent mechanical properties and optical properties.
[0006] To achieve the above purpose, in the first aspect of the present invention, a silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film is provided, wherein the materials constituting the silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film include silver nanoclusters and polyvinyl alcohol.
[0007] In the second aspect of the present invention, a preparation method of a silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film is provided, wherein the preparation method includes: configuring a polyvinyl alcohol solution with polyvinyl alcohol, silver nanoclusters and water, and obtaining a silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film through a casting method.
[0008] In the third aspect of the present invention, a silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film prepared by the aforementioned preparation method is provided.

[0010] Through the above technical solutions, the present invention has achieved the following beneficial effects:
[0011] The silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film in the present invention is doped and modified from the molecular structure of the polyvinyl alcohol optical film, so that the silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film can have both excellent mechanical properties and optical properties.
[0012] Furthermore, specific concentrations of silver nanoclusters and polyvinyl alcohol enable more thorough doping, further improving the mechanical and optical properties of the silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film. Detailed implementation manners
[0013] In the ranges disclosed herein, the endpoints and any values are not limited to the exact ranges or values. These ranges or values should be understood to include values close to these ranges or values. For numerical ranges, the endpoint values of each range, between the endpoint values of each range, between the endpoint values of each range and individual point values, and between individual point values can be combined with each other to obtain one or more new numerical ranges, and these numerical ranges should be regarded as specifically disclosed herein.
[0014] In the first aspect of the present invention, a silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film is provided, wherein the materials constituting the silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film include silver nanoclusters and polyvinyl alcohol.
[0015] In the present invention, the materials of the silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film include silver nanoclusters and polyvinyl alcohol. Modifying polyvinyl alcohol with silver nanoclusters at the molecular structure level enables the silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film to have excellent mechanical and optical properties.
[0016] In the present invention, silver nanoclusters are prepared by conventional preparation methods in the art. In a particularly preferred embodiment, silver nanoclusters are prepared by a photocatalytic reduction method. The specific synthesis method of the photocatalytic reduction method is as follows: Take 4.0 mL of carboxymethyl dextran with a concentration of 5.0×10 -3 mol / L and drop it into a weighing bottle with a specification of 50×30 mm, add 12 mL of water and a magnetic stirrer, place it on a magnetic stirrer and stir. While stirring, add 4 mL of silver ammonia solution with a concentration of 5.0×10 -3 mol / L, stir at room temperature for 10 min to make it fully mixed evenly. Place the evenly mixed solution open under a UVC-type ultraviolet lamp, stir and irradiate for 4 h while stirring. As the irradiation time increases, the color of the solution gradually changes from colorless and transparent to brownish yellow, and the target product silver nanoclusters are obtained.

[0022] Further, the elongation at break of the silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film is 420 - 580%, the light transmittance is 90 - 93%, and the haze is 0.1 - 0.5%.
[0023] The second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing a silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film. The preparation method includes: configuring polyvinyl alcohol, silver nanoclusters, and water into a polyvinyl alcohol solution, and obtaining the silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film through a casting method.
[0024] In the present invention, by adding polyvinyl alcohol and silver nanoclusters simultaneously, at the molecular level, the silver nanoclusters can be fully dispersed in the polyvinyl alcohol, and the two are mutually blended, so that the prepared silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film has excellent mechanical properties and optical properties.
[0025] In the present invention, the casting method is a conventional casting method in the art. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the specific method of the casting method is: uniformly flowing the uniformly mixed polyvinyl alcohol solution onto a film-forming device through a casting device, and forming a film after drying. The drying temperature is 120 - 140 °C, and the drying time is 1 - 2 h.
[0026] According to the present invention, based on the polyvinyl alcohol solution, the content of the polyvinyl alcohol is 5 - 25 wt%, the content of the silver nanoclusters is 0.5 - 15 wt%, and the content of the water is 60 - 95 wt%.
[0027] In the present invention, when the contents of polyvinyl alcohol, silver nanoclusters, and water in the polyvinyl alcohol solution meet the above ranges, the doping degree of the silver nanoclusters is increased, the polyvinyl alcohol can be fully optimized, and further the mechanical properties and optical properties of the prepared silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film are improved.
[0028] Further, based on the polyvinyl alcohol solution, the content of the polyvinyl alcohol is 12 - 20 wt%, the content of the silver nanoclusters is 1 - 10 wt%, and the content of the water is 70 - 87 wt%.

[0030] The fourth aspect of the present invention provides an application of the aforementioned silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film in the field of polarizers.

[0032] The test method for the thickness of the silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film is as follows: Place the film flat on a platform and use a handheld contact thickness gauge for detection.
[0033] The test method for the elongation at break of the silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film: Clamp the film on the chuck of a tensile device, then soak it in water at 25 °C for 30 s, and then start stretching; elongation at break = (ΔL / L) × 100%, where ΔL is the relative increased length and L is the initial length.
[0034] The test method for the light transmittance of the silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film: Use a haze meter to test the light transmittance. Cut the film into a circular piece with a radius of 50 mm at normal temperature and pressure, and place it in the haze meter for testing. The test temperature is 93 °C.
[0035] The test method for the haze of the silver nanocluster-doped polyvinyl alcohol optical film: Use a haze meter to test the light transmittance. Cut the film into a circular piece of appropriate size at normal temperature and pressure, and place it in the haze meter for testing; haze = scattered light flux / transmitted light flux × 100%.

[0037] The preparation method of silver nanoclusters is as follows: Take 4.0 mL of carboxymethyl dextran with a concentration of 5.0×10 -3 mol / L and drop it into a weighing bottle with a specification of 50×30 mm. Add 12 mL of water and a magnetic stirrer, place it on a magnetic stirrer and stir. While stirring, add 4 mL of silver ammonia solution with a concentration of 5.0×10 -3 mol / L. Stir at room temperature for 10 min to make it fully mixed. Place the well-mixed solution open under a UVC-type ultraviolet lamp, stir and irradiate for 4 h while stirring.
