Description

Conductive polymer precursor solution, conductive polymer film, preparation method, and use Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of optoelectronic devices, and in particular to a conductive polymer precursor solution, a conductive polymer film, a preparation method, and uses. Background Art

[0002] With the development of flexible optoelectronic devices, conductive polymer films have attracted great attention from academia and industry due to their high conductivity and good stability, especially in the fields of thermoelectrics, photovoltaics, lighting, sensing, transparent electrodes, bioelectronics, etc. For example, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) has become a widely studied material due to its excellent conductivity and transport properties.

[0003] The current transparent conductive polymer process used by the scientific community is a two-step vapor phase polymerization (VPP) and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. Taking the preparation method of poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) conductive polymer film as an example, the oxidant is first deposited into a film, and then exposed to 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) vapor under vacuum, or it can be evaporated together with EDOT to obtain a thin film, or further introduced Lewis base additives (such as pyridine, imidazole, N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP)), and integrated with various non-reactive polymer additives from polyethylene glycol copolymers to produce sufficient doping and improve conductivity. However, the high cost of organic anion-based oxidants, vacuum vapor deposition equipment, and evaporation units that require precise control limit the production of this method on a commercial scale.

[0004] In order to reduce production costs, people have tried to prepare the above-mentioned reactants into solutions and form conductive polymer films based on the solution method. However, due to the strong reactivity of some reactants (for example, oxidants, etc.), the stability of the reactant solution is not easy to ensure, and the reaction is too fast during the film formation process, resulting in uneven film formation, which hinders the commercial application of the solution method.

It is low-temperature and low-cost, and can produce PEDOT-based conductive polymer films under ordinary conditions. In addition, the process technology can be easily expanded in different solvents. The operation is safe and simple, which is conducive to commercial applications.

The film was then dried on an 80°C hot plate for 3 minutes to produce a conductive polymer film.

[0136] Examples 2-3

[0137] The only difference between Examples 2 and 3 and Example 1 is that after solution B is prepared, it is allowed to stand for 10 minutes and 15 minutes respectively before spin coating to form a film.

[0138] Examples 4 to 6

[0139] The only difference between Examples 4 to 6 and Example 1 is that the volume fraction of the chelating agent is different, which are 0.2%, 0.5% and 1% respectively.

[0140] Example 7

[0141] The only difference between Example 7 and Example 1 is that a triblock copolymer of polyethylene glycol-polypropylene glycol-polyethylene glycol (P123) with a Mw of 5800 is used. Specifically, P123 is first added to an ethanol solvent and thoroughly mixed, wherein the ethanol content is 80wt% and the P123 content is 20wt%. Solid oxidant Fe(ClO4)3 and chelating agent 2,4-pentanedione are added to form solution A. The concentration of Fe(ClO4)3 in solution A is 80mg / mL, and the concentration of 2,4-pentanedione in solution A is 20μL / mL. Then, 10μL EDOT is added to 1mL of solution B to form solution B.

[0144] Table 3 Using different main solvents

[0145] Example 12

[0146] The main solvent ethanol and the secondary solvent CLM were mixed in proportion to form a solvent system, and a P123 with a Mw of 5800 was added to the above solvent system and mixed thoroughly, wherein the content of ethanol was 74wt%, the content of secondary solvent CLM was 6wt%, and the content of P123 was 20wt%. Then, solid oxidant Fe(ClO4)3 and chelating agent 2,4-pentanedione were added to solution A to form solution A. The concentration of Fe(ClO4)3 in solution A was 80mg / mL, and the concentration of 2,4-pentanedione in solution A was 10μL / mL. Then, 10μL EDOT was added to 1mL of solution A to form solution B. Within half an hour, solution B was used to precipitate the precipitate in a 20×20mm 2 The film was spin-coated onto glass at a speed of 1000 rpm for 30 seconds. The film was then annealed on an 80°C hot plate for 3 minutes. The film was then washed three times in an ethanol bath at room temperature for 5 minutes. The film was then dried at 80°C for 3 minutes to produce a conductive polymer film.

[0147] Examples 13 to 18

[0148] The only difference between Examples 13 to 18 and Example 12 is that N,N'-diethylacetamide, N,N'-dimethylpropylene urea, tetramethyl urea, hexamethylphosphoric triamide, trimethyl phosphate, and tributyl phosphate are added as secondary solvents, respectively. See Table 4 for details.

[0149] Table 4 Film-forming properties using secondary solvents

[0150] Examples 19 to 21

[0151] The only difference between Examples 19 to 21 and Example 12 is that different chelating agents are added, respectively. See Table 5 for details.

[0152] Table 5 Film-forming properties of different chelating agents

[0153] Comparative Example 1

[0154] The only difference between Comparative Example 1 and Example 1 is that no chelating agent is used.

[0155] Comparative Examples 2-3

[0156] The only difference between Comparative Examples 2 and 3 and Comparative Example 1 is that Solution B was allowed to stand for 10 minutes and 15 minutes before being spin-coated to form a film.

[0157] Comparative Example 4

[0158] The only difference between Comparative Example 4 and Example 7 is that no chelating agent is used and the rotation speed is adjusted to 1500 rpm.

[0159] Referring to Figure 2 , in the conductive polymer solutions of Comparative Examples 1-3 (Solution B), where no chelating agent was used, the surface morphology of the conductive polymer film was poor, and the surface morphology became rougher as the conductive polymer solution was allowed to stand for a longer time. This is because the oxidant in the conductive polymer solution is highly active and reacts very quickly after preparation, resulting in poor homogeneity of the conductive polymer solution itself and, consequently, poor morphology of the resulting conductive polymer film.

[0160] Referring to Figure 1, it can be seen that adding a chelating agent to the conductive polymer precursor solution can significantly improve the surface smoothness of the conductive polymer film. And as the time of standing still after the conductive polymer precursor solution is prepared increases, the formed conductive polymer film still has a smooth and uniform surface morphology. It can be seen that after adding a chelating agent to the conductive agent polymer solution, the stability of the conductive polymer solution can be significantly improved, and thus, it can ensure that the operator has enough time to perform the film forming operation. In addition, the applicant has further verified that leaving the conductive polymer solution to stand for a longer period of time, for example, several hours or several days, still does not affect the preparation of the conductive polymer film.

[0161] In Examples 4-6, the amount of the chelating agent in the conductive polymer precursor solution was changed. As the amount of the chelating agent increased, the morphology of the conductive polymer film did not deteriorate significantly (not shown).

[0162] The applicant also found that due to the poor morphology of Comparative Examples 1-3, its sheet resistance was even as high as over 10,000 Ohm / sq, and although Examples 1-6 improved the surface morphology of the conductive polymer film by introducing a chelating agent into the conductive polymer solution, its sheet resistance still did not decrease significantly. In order to improve the conductivity of the conductive polymer film, the applicant further added a dispersant P123 to the conductive polymer precursor solution of Example 7 and Comparative Example 4. The other preparation methods of Example 7 were the same as those of Example 1, and the other preparation methods of Comparative Example 4 were the same as those of Example 1. The sheet resistance of the conductive polymer film obtained in Example 7 was reduced to 312 Ohm / sq. Although the sheet resistance of the conductive polymer film obtained in Comparative Example 4 was lower than 312 Ohm / sq, its surface morphology was still poor, which was not conducive to practical applications. The surface morphology of the conductive polymer film of Example 7 was more excellent, and therefore, it was more suitable for practical applications.

[0163] As shown in Table 3, to further optimize the conductive polymer solution and the conductive polymer film formed therefrom, the applicant also selected different main solvents to prepare the conductive polymer precursor solution in Examples 8 to 11. Combined with Figure 3 , the resulting conductive polymer film achieved an average transmittance of approximately 70% and a sheet resistance of approximately 200 Ohm / sq. It should be noted that Curve 1 in Figure 3 corresponds to the transmittance spectrum of glass, while Curves 2 to 5 correspond to the transmittance spectra of the conductive polymer films produced in Examples 8 to 11.

[0164] Referring to Table 4, in Examples 12 to 18, the applicant further added different types of secondary solvents to the conductive polymer precursor solution based on Example 8, resulting in a further reduction in the sheet resistance of the conductive polymer film and a significant increase in the average light transmittance. This may be because the addition of the secondary solvent further enhances the surface and internal uniformity of the formed conductive polymer film, thereby improving both the conductivity and light transmittance of the conductive polymer film.

[0165] Referring to Table 5, in Examples 19 to 21, the applicant used different chelating agents to prepare the conductive polymer precursor solution based on Example 12. The square resistance of the conductive polymers obtained was below 200 Ohm / sq, and could even be reduced to 62 Ohm / sq; and the average transmittance was above 75%, proving that the solution of the present application is universal and conducive to industrial application.

[0166] Although some exemplary embodiments of the present application have been illustrated and described, the present application is not limited to the disclosed embodiments. On the contrary, those skilled in the art will recognize that some modifications and changes may be made to the described embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application as described in the appended claims.
