Abstract
Full-color fluorescent tunable materials have attracted much attention due to their broad application prospects in fields such as lighting, display devices, and biological imaging. However, it remains challenging to prepare environmentally friendly full-color fluorescent tunable materials through simple and efficient methods. Herein, a series of amino-functionalized complexes were synthesized, and, via covalent bonding, a color-tunable waterborne polyurethane system (WPU-Eu1-x-yTbxZny) was developed, exhibiting both full-color and white fluorescence. In addition, due to the inherent differences in the ultraviolet absorption properties of each complex, the emission color can be further adjusted by changing the excitation wavelength. This dual mechanism enables both preset and dynamic color adjustments, providing various possibilities for applications such as anti-counterfeiting and display technologies. More importantly, WPU-Eu1-x-yTbxZny uses water as a dispersant, has a low VOC content, and is particularly safe and environmentally friendly.
期刊介绍:
Dyes and Pigments covers the scientific and technical aspects of the chemistry and physics of dyes, pigments and their intermediates. Emphasis is placed on the properties of the colouring matters themselves rather than on their applications or the system in which they may be applied.
Thus the journal accepts research and review papers on the synthesis of dyes, pigments and intermediates, their physical or chemical properties, e.g. spectroscopic, surface, solution or solid state characteristics, the physical aspects of their preparation, e.g. precipitation, nucleation and growth, crystal formation, liquid crystalline characteristics, their photochemical, ecological or biological properties and the relationship between colour and chemical constitution. However, papers are considered which deal with the more fundamental aspects of colourant application and of the interactions of colourants with substrates or media.
The journal will interest a wide variety of workers in a range of disciplines whose work involves dyes, pigments and their intermediates, and provides a platform for investigators with common interests but diverse fields of activity such as cosmetics, reprographics, dye and pigment synthesis, medical research, polymers, etc.
