On the basis of this , an integrated theoretical framework is established , and some certain reference for the development of relevant research on corporate green innovation behaviors has been provided. This paper aims to broaden the research perspective of corporate green innovation behaviors , enrich and improve corporate green innovation theories and methods. The research results will help reveal the “ black box ” of green innovation activities , and provide government guidance for the diffusion of green innovations.
