[0031] Example 1
[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, a thermochromic coating cover plate includes:
[0033] Glass substrate 1;
[0034] Thermochromic ink layer 2 is disposed on one side of the glass substrate 1;
[0035] A black silicon carbide coating layer 3 is disposed on the side of the thermochromic ink layer 2 away from the glass substrate 1.
[0036] The thermochromic coated cover of this invention has a black silicon carbide coating layer 3 disposed on the side of the thermochromic ink layer 2 away from the glass substrate 1. The high hardness of the black silicon carbide coating layer 3 protects the surface of the thermochromic ink layer 2, preventing scratches on the thermochromic ink layer 2 during a series of transportation, transfer, and testing processes before the coated cover is bonded to the product shell. This ensures a smooth, scratch-free surface, thereby improving adhesion to adhesives and reducing the risk of the coated cover detaching from the product shell. At the same time, the black silicon carbide coating layer 3 also provides a black base color for the coated cover, saving on additional base color ink.
[0037] Silicon carbide has a Mohs hardness of up to 9.5. Pure silicon carbide is transparent. When silicon carbide contains impurities such as carbon, aluminum, and boron, it will appear black. Moreover, when the mass percentage of impurities such as carbon, aluminum, and boron is less than 5%, the hardness of silicon carbide is almost unaffected by the impurities.
[0038] Therefore, preferably, the black silicon carbide coating layer 3 is a silicon carbide coating layer containing impurities such as carbon, aluminum, and boron, with the mass percentage of impurities being less than 5%, and the black silicon carbide coating layer 3 is formed on the thermochromic ink layer 2 by vacuum evaporation, magnetron sputtering, or chemical vapor deposition.
[0039] During the coating process, pure silicon carbide target material is converted into silicon carbide gas using methods such as vacuum evaporation, magnetron sputtering, or chemical vapor deposition. This silicon carbide gas is then introduced into the coating chamber. Simultaneously, impurity target materials such as carbon, aluminum, and boron are converted into impurity gases using the same methods, and these impurity gases are also introduced into the coating chamber. The silicon carbide gas and impurity gases are then uniformly mixed in the coating chamber and coated onto the thermochromic ink layer 2 to ultimately form the black silicon carbide coating layer 3. The mass percentage of impurities is controlled by adjusting the concentration of the impurity gas introduced into the coating chamber.
[0040] In this embodiment, the thickness of the black silicon carbide coating layer 3 is 10-20 nm.
[0041] The thermochromic ink layer 2 is transparent at room temperature, so that the coated cover plate presents a black background color consistent with the black silicon carbide coating layer 3; the thermochromic ink layer 2 becomes colored at temperatures above or below room temperature, so that the coated cover plate presents a mixed color of the black silicon carbide coating layer 3 and the thermochromic ink layer 2, or an appearance color consistent with the color change of the thermochromic ink layer 2.
[0042] In addition to enhancing the personalization of the appearance, the thermochromic ink layer 2 will also change color as the temperature of the electronic product rises during the use of mobile phones and other electronic products, thereby alerting the user to the heat status of the electronic product, so that the user can cool down the electronic product in time and avoid damage to the electronic product.
[0043] Preferably, the thermochromic ink layer 2 is a bisphenol A crystal violet lactone ink layer with a thickness of 7-10 μm.
[0044] The thermochromic ink layer 2 uses crystal violet lactone as a leuco dye and bisphenol A as a color developer. During preparation, the leuco dye and color developer are first uniformly mixed in a preset ratio, then dissolved in an organic solvent to form the thermochromic ink. Finally, the thermochromic ink is applied to the glass substrate 1 using methods such as screen printing to form a specific ink pattern.
[0045] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the glass substrate 1 includes a display area 11 and a border area 12, with the border area 12 surrounding the display area 11; the thermochromic ink layer 2 and the black silicon carbide coating layer 3 only cover the border area 12 of the glass substrate 1, while avoiding the display area 11 of the glass substrate 1.
[0046] Preferably, the glass substrate 1 is tempered glass with a thickness of 0.4-0.7 mm.
[0047] Example 2
[0048] As an optimization of Embodiment 1, in this embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the thermochromic coating cover plate further includes:
[0049] A tin plating layer 4 is disposed on the side of the glass substrate 1 away from the thermochromic ink layer 2;
[0050] A cadmium selenide coating layer 5 is disposed on the side of the tin coating layer 4 away from the glass substrate 1.
[0051] A titanium nitride coating layer 6 is disposed on the side of the cadmium selenide coating layer 5 away from the tin coating layer 4.
[0052] The thermochromic coated cover of this invention comprises a tin coating layer 4, a cadmium selenide coating layer 5, and a titanium nitride coating layer 6 sequentially disposed on the side of the glass substrate 1 away from the thermochromic ink layer 2. The tin coating layer 4, being soft, having large molecular gaps, and easily combining with other coating layers, serves as an adhesion layer in the multilayer structure, improving the adhesion of the cadmium selenide coating layer 5 to the glass substrate 1. Furthermore, the cadmium selenide coating layer 5, with its strong absorption capacity for near-infrared light, enhances the near-infrared protection performance of the coated cover. Finally, the titanium nitride coating layer 6, with its strong chemical inertness, provides the coated cover with oxidation and corrosion resistance.
[0053] In this embodiment, the thickness of the tin plating layer 4 is 10-15 nm, the thickness of the cadmium selenide plating layer 5 is 8-18 nm, and the thickness of the titanium nitride plating layer 6 is 10-20 nm.
[0054] The tin plating layer 4, cadmium selenide plating layer 5, and titanium nitride plating layer 6 simultaneously cover the display area 11 and the border area 12 of the glass substrate 1.
[0055] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present utility model and not to limit them. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can still be made to the technical solutions of the present utility model, and these modifications or equivalent substitutions cannot cause the modified technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the present utility model.
