This invention discloses a
fingerprint development
reagent based on natural AIE compounds and
precipitated silica, its preparation method, and its application, belonging to the field of
forensic identification technology. The
reagent is a
particulate suspension comprising
precipitated silica, natural AIE compounds, a surfactant, and a
solvent. During preparation, the surfactant is dissolved in the
solvent, the natural AIE compound is added and dissolved, and then
precipitated silica is added in batches with stirring to obtain a uniform and stable suspension. This invention uses naturally derived AIE active substances, which are non-toxic,
environmentally friendly, and low-cost, avoiding the biotoxicity and complex preparation process of traditional synthetic dyes. It also effectively solves the problems of
dust pollution and poor compatibility with moist objects in
powder development methods. It achieves high-contrast, high-definition
fluorescence development of latent fingerprints on both dry and moist, non-permeable surfaces. The preparation process is simple and controllable, easy to scale up, and has good application prospects in rapid on-site detection fields such as criminal investigation and
forensic identification.
