Due to the simplicity of the synthesis process, mild reaction conditions, good hydrophilicity and biological compatibility, NLMs have attracted much attention.

This study addresses this limitation by designing and synthesizing oligomers P1, P2 and P3 using ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether and amine compounds containing ethylene groups. These oligomers exhibit remarkable luminescence efficiency reaching as high as 9.2% in dilute solutions (0.1 mg/mL), making them among the best NLMs in this category. Furthermore, the synthesized oligomers exhibit excitation wavelength-dependent and concentration-dependent luminescence intensity, fluorescence response to temperature and pH changes, as well as the ability to identify Fe<sup>3+</sup>, Cu<sup>2+</sup> and Mo<sup>5+</sup> in dilute solutions. These characteristics render them potentially useful in the for cell imaging.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":517,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Polymer Science","volume":"42 11","pages":"1679 - 1689"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142188658","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Currently, the introduction of rigid groups into epoxy resins is the main method to improve their intrinsic thermal conductivity. The researchers explored the relationship between the flexible chains of epoxy monomers and the thermal conductivity of the modified epoxy resins (MEP). The effect of flexible chain length on the introduction of rigid groups into the cross-linked structure of epoxy is worth investigating, which is of great significance for the improvement of thermal conductivity of polymers and related theories. We prepared a small molecule liquid crystal (SMLC) containing a long flexible chain <i>via</i> a simple synthesis reaction, and introduced rigid mesocrystalline units into the epoxy resin <i>via</i> a curing reaction. During high-temperature curing, the introduced mesocrystalline units underwent orientational stacking and were immobilized within the polymer. XRD and TGA tests showed that the ordering within the modified epoxy resin was increased, which improved the thermal conductivity of the epoxy resin. Crucially, during the above process, the flexible chains of SMLC provide space for the biphenyl groups to align and therefore affect the thermal conductivity of the MEP. Specifically, the MEP-VI cured with SMLC-VI containing six carbon atoms in the flexible chain has the highest thermal conductivity of 0.40 W·m<sup>−1</sup>·K<sup>−1</sup>, which is 125% of the thermal conductivity of SMLC-IV of 0.32 W·m<sup>−1</sup>·K<sup>−1</sup>, 111% of the thermal conductivity of SMLC-VIII of 0.36 W·m<sup>−1</sup>·K<sup>−1</sup>, and 182% of the thermal conductivity of pure epoxy of 0.22 W·m<sup>−1</sup>·K<sup>−1</sup>.
