Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a paper pH sensor using colorimetry and a method of manufacturing the same,

The present invention relates to a paper pH sensor using colorimetry and a method for producing the same.

pH (hydrogen ion concentration) is a numerical value indicating the degree of acidity or alkalinity of a substance and is used in various fields such as chemistry, biology, and medicine.

Conventionally, to measure pH, litmus spp. Or indicator was used. The pH value was measured by changing color of litmus spp. Or indicator according to pH. However, such a method using litmus species or indicator has a limitation in accuracy. For example, a roll type paper pH sensor (Advantec, pH Test Paper, 07011030) distinguishes colors by the naked eye and measures the pH value. In order to solve this problem, a strip type pH sensor (SIGMA, pH Test Strips, P-4786) is used in a plurality of regions in an accurate expression color according to a pH value. However, since the above-mentioned strip type pH sensor has to determine the pH value by comparing the color change of several detector parts with the standard color change chart provided by the manufacturer, it is necessary for the user to understand the usage of the product and to learn the usage method , It is difficult to discriminate the color at pH 0 ~ 3, pH 7 ~ 9 and pH 11 ~ 14 in case of an unskilled ordinary person, so it is difficult to measure the pH accurately.

However, since the method using the litmus paper and the indicator has a limitation in accuracy, recently, in order to measure more accurately, the pH in the solution is measured using a direct potential difference method between a measuring electrode using a glass electrode and a reference electrode, Analysis methods are widely used. However, the measurement sensor using such a glass electrode is stable and has a long lifetime and is widely used, but has a disadvantage in that the response speed is slow.

For example, one side of the polyester film may be coated with an adhesive and thermally adhered at a temperature of 70 to 130 ° C. The inner paper layer can be firmly and easily attached by roll pressing at a temperature of about < RTI ID = 0.0 > < / RTI >

The reagent impregnated in the detection region 121 of the present invention may be a malachite, brilliant green, methyl green, methyl violet, crystal violet, Eosin bluish, ethyl violet, m-cresol purple, thymol blue, p-xylenol blue, 2,2 ' , 2 ", 4,4'-pentamethoxy-triphenylcarbinol, quinaldine red, 2,4-dinitrophenol (2,4-dinitrophenol), methyl yellow, bromochlorophenol, bromophenol blue, tetrabromophenol blue, congo red, methyl orange methyl orange, bromocresol green, 2,5-dinitrophenol, methyl red, chlorophenol red, Bromocresol purple, bromophenol red, nitrazine yellow, bromoxylenol blue, bromothymol blue (BTB), neutral red, phenol Phenol red, 3-nitrophenol, 1-naphtholphthalein, phenolphthalein, thymolphthalein, alizarin yellow GG, May be at least one selected from the group consisting of tropaeolin O, indigo carmine, epsilon blue, alkali blue and titan yellow.

3 and 5, the paper pH sensor 100 of the present invention may include a plurality of detection areas 121 along the longitudinal direction of the hollow-paper path 115, From one side to the other, each indicator that induces a color change from a lower pH value to a higher pH value can be impregnated in order.

For example, in the detection region 121, 10 kinds of pH indicators capable of detecting a sample having a pH value of 4 to 13 are added to the tetrabromophenol blue, , Bromocresol green, chlorophenol red, bromothymol blue, phenol red, phenolphthalein, thymolphthalein, phenolphthalein, And a solution of Titan yellow, a solution of tropaeolin O and a solution of Titan yellow.

The color of the station 121 is changed, it is possible to measure the pH of the sample.

In another embodiment, the reagent comprises an auxiliary compound capable of interacting with the at least one pH indicator described above and the indicator to change the value of the acid dissociation constant (pKa) of the indicator in an aqueous solution.

Here, the acid dissociation constant (pKa) means the equilibrium constant of the ionization equilibrium of the acid and the scale of the acid strength. The larger the value, the greater the ionization tendency.

More specifically, the introduction of the above-described auxiliary compound in the present invention is carried out by using one kind of indicator at a specific pH (pH) to minimize cognitive deterioration due to a variety of color fading occurring by using different pH indicators in the detection region 121 In order to induce the same color change in the section.

On the other hand, in order to induce a change in the discoloration pH value of the pH indicator, the auxiliary compound may be added to the indicator to cause the shift of the discoloration point. Since the same indicator is the same color, the discoloration pH is changed in a narrow range 1 to 2).

In general, pH indicators use ions that form ions through a proton dissociation reaction at certain pH values and that they exhibit a different color. Therefore, the auxiliary compounds capable of effectively changing the pKa value of the proton dissociation reaction are molecules capable of ion-ion or ion-dipole interaction.

Representative examples of the material include ionic surfactants such as cetyltrimethyl ammonium sulfate (CTAB), dodecyl pyridinium bromide, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), sodium dodecylsulfonate (1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl) phenyl-polyethylene glycol (4- (1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl) phenyl) -polyethyleneglycol, which is a nonionic surfactant, and sodium dodecylsulfonate, sodium hexadecanoate, 3,3-Tetramethylbutyl) phenyl-polyethylene glycol (Trion X-100), and dodecyl penta (ethylene oxide).

In addition, ionic liquid compounds can also act as an auxiliary material, including trihexyl- (tetradecyl) phosphonium chloride, trimethylpyrazolium methylsulfate 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride, trimethylpyrazolium methylsulfate, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hydrogensulfate, .

On the other hand, the upper hydrophilic film 130 and / or the lower hydrophilic film 140 are formed of a transparent substrate, so that the user can easily observe the changed color of the detection region 121.

In addition, the upper hydrophilic film 130 and the lower hydrophilic film 140 may be formed of a polymer film such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polystyrene (PS), polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), polyester (PES, Polyester), polyethylene (PE, Polyethylen) and cyclic olefin copolymers (COC).

In one embodiment, the polymer film may be a polymer film surface-treated with plasma. That is, the hydrophobic polymer film may be plasma-treated to have hydrophilicity.

For reference, the polymer films can also induce spontaneous fluid flow effectively by introducing an oxidizing functional group into a hydrophilic surface by plasma treatment, and can improve the hydrophilicity of the polymer film through other chemical and physical methods.

In addition, the present invention relates to a method for producing a paper pH sensor 100 using a colorimetric method.

(B) producing an upper hydrophilic film 130 and a lower hydrophilic film 140; and (c) forming a lower hydrophilic film 140. The method further comprises the steps of: (a) ) The upper and lower hydrophilic films and the lower hydrophilic film 140 are disposed on the upper and lower surfaces of the paper layer, and are fixed using adhesion or adhesion pressing processes.

The step (a) may include forming the outer wall of the fluid passage 112 and the detection area 121 in the paper layer 110 in a hydrophobic manner, separating the inner wall of the fluid passage 112 from the outer wall at a predetermined interval Forming a hollow-paper passage 115 by using a CO 2 cutter in the exposed area and impregnating the indicator area 121 with an indicator.

Particularly, the step of forming the outer wall of the fluid passage 112 and the detection area 121 in the paper layer 110 by hydrophobic may be performed by photolithography using a SU-8 photosensitive polymer material and a semiconductor process, Wax printing to eject the hydrophobic solid wax, impregnation & hardening to penetrate and harden the hydrophobic material into the paper and cure in a selective area, Various methods such as imprinting, plasma processing, screen printing, and the like for transferring a hydrophobic substance to a pattern tension can be applied.

In the following embodiments, a pattern is formed using a wax printer, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and it is natural that a wax printing technique according to the prior art can be used. That is, without using a wax printer, a mask having a pattern corresponding to a pattern can be covered on the paper, and the wax can be treated to wax-print the pattern. At this time, the wax can be printed on the mask in a solid state as it is, or it may be heated by a temperature above the melting point and applied with a brush or the like.

In one embodiment, the width of the fluid passage may vary depending on the amount of fluid used, the size of the element, and the like, and may have a width of about 1 to 10 mm. In addition, it is preferable that the fluid passage 112 symmetrically leaves a predetermined partial paper on both outer walls. The hollow-aeration passage may serve to connect a plurality of detection regions 121 present in the paper layer 110 to an introduction portion of the aqueous solution sample. Meanwhile, the detection area 121 may include at least one connection part 123 to be connected to the paper layer 110. More specifically, when the hollow-paper path 115 is cut by using a CO 2 laser cutter, cutting is performed except for the connecting portion 123, the detecting portion 120 is cut off, To the paper layer 110.

The step (b) includes a step of cutting the upper hydrophilic film 130 to form a fluid inlet 131 and a detection area 121, and the three-layer structure paper shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 the step (c) of attaching the paper layer 110 between the upper hydrophilic film 130 and the lower hydrophilic film 140 using the adhesive layer 150 and the step of bonding the adhesive layer 150 to the lower hydrophilic film 140, 150, the lower hydrophilic film 140, and the paper layer 110, which are adhered by the upper hydrophilic film 130, the lower hydrophilic film 140, and the paper layer 110, respectively.

Particularly, in the case of the parafilm, when the pressure is applied at room temperature, it may be possible to adhere while modifying if a certain pressure is applied even if heat is not applied. The pressure at this time may be 2 kgf / cm 2 to 100 kgf / cm 2 . For example, a parafilm can be used as the adhesive layer 150 of the present invention, and such a parafilm may undergo denaturation by pressurization even at room temperature. On the other hand, when thermocompression proceeds, it may occur in the range of 45 to 95 ° C. For reference, the heat of the parafilm is thermally deformed from a temperature near 45 ° C, and the heat distortion occurs too much at a high temperature, resulting in a collapse of the pattern shape. In addition, the parafilm can be easily processed in the same pattern as the channel pattern by using a laser cutter, and is excellent in durability against chemicals, so that the impurity can be prevented from flowing into the fluid passage 112. For example, Lt; RTI ID = 0.0 > 60 C < / RTI >

On the other hand, the paper pH sensor 100 including the hollow-paper passage 115 is less likely to leak than a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) element that generates a relatively high pressure due to a very low pressure applied to the fluid, It does not have to be high. As another alternative, there is a method of screen-bonding the adhesive paste to directly form the patterned adhesive layer 150 on the hydrophilic film, followed by adhering to the paper layer 110.

4 and 5, the step (c) includes the steps of forming a paper sheet in the intermediate adhesive layer 160 in which the space 161 is formed, Inserting the layer 110 and the lower hydrophilic film 140 and pressing the lower adhesive layer 170 under the lower hydrophilic film 140 by a pressing process; . ≪ / RTI >

At this time, the lower adhesive layer 170 uses a lamination film and can be thermocompression bonded at 70 to 130 ° C, specifically 90 to 110 ° C.

In another aspect, a method of manufacturing a paper pH sensor using the colorimetric method of the present invention includes the steps of (a) preparing a paper layer including a hollow-paper path, (b) preparing a top adhesive layer 180 and a bottom adhesive layer (C) disposing the upper adhesive layer (180) and the lower adhesive layer on the upper and lower surfaces of the paper layer, and fixing the upper adhesive layer (180) and the lower adhesive layer using a pressing process of adhering; Inserting the paper layer and the lower hydrophilic film into the formed intermediate layer 190, and fixing the lower adhesive layer 170 to the lower hydrophilic film using a pressing process.

At this time, the step of manufacturing the paper layer is as described above, so a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

Meanwhile, the upper adhesive layer 180 may be cut to form a fluid inlet and an outlet. In particular, the outlet may correspond to the position of the detection area of the paper layer.

At this time, the lower adhesive layer 170 uses a lamination film and can be thermocompression bonded at 70 to 130 ° C, specifically 90 to 110 ° C.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the following examples. However, the following examples are intended to illustrate the contents of the present invention, but the scope of the present invention is not limited to the following examples.

Example 5: Preparation of paper pH sensor

In this embodiment, a paper pH sensor having the three-layer structure shown in Fig. 11 was manufactured.

The paper pH sensor of the present embodiment has a three-layer structure composed of an upper adhesive layer 180, an intermediate layer 190 containing a paper layer and a lower hydrophilic film, and a lower adhesive layer 170, Means a pH sensor to be formed.

In the present embodiment, the paper layer was made of cellulose paper (Whatman, Chromatography paper grade # 1) having a thickness of 160 μm, and the overall paper pH sensor had a size of about 25 × 75 × 2 mm 3 (width × length × thickness) And a fluid passage is formed in the central portion so that the two fluid flows at a distance of 25 mm on one side and the other side of the fluid passage injection port.

Next, a hydrophobic barrier was formed using wax printing, which was the same method as in Example 1-2, and a hollow-paper path was formed by laser cutting.

Referring to FIG. 11, the pH sensor of this embodiment is wax-printed except for a fluid passage extending in the longitudinal direction, a plurality of detection areas, and a connection portion 123. More specifically, the fluid passage was wax-printed except for a fluid passage, a detection area, and a connection portion so as to have a width of 3 mm, a distance of 50 mm, a detection area of 3 mm x 2 mm, and a connection area of 3 m x 1 m. The fluid inlet and fluid passages were then cut using a CO 2 cutter to form a hollow-paper path. At this time, the hollow-paper passage has a width of 1 mm and a length of 25 mm on both sides of the fluid injection port.

In the detection range corresponding to pH 1 to pH 13, 14 pH indicators capable of detecting a sample having a pH value were arranged in the order of lower pH value from the lower side to the upper side in the order of crystal violet (TCI), ethyl violet (TCI), quinaldine red (TCI), tetrabromophenol blue (Sigma Aldrich), bromocresol green ), Mixed solution of bromocresol purple (Sigma Aldrich), cetyltriammonium bromide (Sigma Aldrich), bromothymol blue (Samseon Pure Chemical Industries) and cetyltri ammonium bromide, thymol blue thymol blue, thymolphthalein (Sigma Aldrich), a mixed solution of thymol blue and titan yellow (TCI), a mixture of thymol blue and tetramethylammonium bromide, , Tropez De O (tropaeolin O, TCI), was used as a titanium yellow pH indicator.

Marking means such as scales were prepared by using a wax printing method on each of the detection regions, and the detection pH values of the respective detection regions from pH 1 to pH 13 were indicated by markers. Such marking means may be provided in the upper adhesive layer 180.

For reference, the pH indicator may be replaced with another pH indicator reagent having a similar hue change range as shown in Table 1, the initial pH can be adjusted with the buffer solution, and the pH can be adjusted The pH can be measured more precisely by adding an auxiliary compound.

Meanwhile, in this example, a cationic surfactant, cetyltriammonium bromide, was added to bromocresol purple, bromothymol blue and thymol blue to prepare a pH indicator reagent, So that color change can occur at a pH lower than the pH causing the change.

An intermediate layer 190 having the same size as the upper adhesive layer 180 and having the same size as the paper layer so as to accommodate the paper layer is formed in order to contact the upper adhesive layer 180 and the paper layer in direct contact with each other. Were prepared.

In this embodiment, the upper adhesive layer 180 and the lower adhesive layer 170 are laminated films coated with an adhesive.

<Experimental Example 1>

Experimental Example 1-1. Measuring Fluid Movement Speed - 1

In order to investigate the influence of the pH paper sensor including the hollow-paper path 115 on the flow of fluids in this experimental example, three kinds of fluid flow devices were prepared.

More specifically, using a fluid flow device comprising a hydrophilic paper layer with a 2 mm hollow, a paper layer with 2 mm hollow and 2 mm porous material, or a paper layer with 1 mm hollow and 1 mm porous material formed, The moving distance was measured.

For reference, a hydrophobic paper layer having a hollow of 2 mm means a paper layer not containing a porous material, and a paper layer having a hollow of 2 mm and a porous material of 2 mm is formed on both sides of a hollow 2 mm Means a paper layer containing a porous material having a width of 1 mm. In addition, a paper layer having a hollow of 1 mm and a porous material of 1 mm means a paper containing porous material of 0.5 mm width on both side walls of 1 mm hollow.

In this experiment, 300 쨉 g of ink was dropped on the fluid injection port of each of the three kinds of fluid flow devices, and the moving distance of the ink obtained during the movement of 100 mm was measured. The results are shown in Fig.

Referring to Fig. 12, when the ink moves 100 mm, the fluid flow element including the hydrophobic paper layer with the 2 mm hollow is formed in the fluid flow element 2 having the paper layer formed with the porous material of 2 mm hollow and 2 mm for 40 seconds, Lt; RTI ID = 0.0 &gt; 25 sec, &lt; / RTI &gt; a fluid flow element comprising a layer of paper formed with 1 mm hollow and 1 mm porous material took 15 seconds.

In this experiment, it was found that the fluid flow element including the hollow-paper passage was faster than the fluid flow element including only the hollow, and the width of the hollow-paper passage was larger than that of the hollow- It was confirmed that the flow velocity of the fluid flow device including the narrow paper layer shows a higher flow velocity.

This is because in the experiment in which the initial fluid pressure was controlled to zero, the fluid flow element including only the hollow does not generate spontaneous flow, but the fluid flow element including the hollow-paper path shows that the fluid can move along the path by itself .

In other words, by applying the fluid flow device including the hollow-paper passage in the present experiment to the pH paper sensor of the present invention, it is possible to speed up the flow of the fluid and quickly observe the color change of the indicator impregnated in the pH paper sensor .

Experimental Example 1-2. Measuring Fluid Movement Speed - 2

13 is a graph showing a fluid movement distance with time using three types of fluid flow devices made of a non-plasma treated polyethylene terephthalate film.

The same tendency as in Experimental Example 1-1 was observed when polyethylene terephthalate without surface modification using plasma was used.

However, in the fluid flow device manufactured using the polyethylene terephthalate film without plasma treatment, since the film surface has more hydrophobic property, it is possible to prevent the later fluid flow Speed. This indicates that the upper and lower film surfaces must have high hydrophilicity to induce spontaneous flow.

< Experimental Example  2> pH measurement using paper pH sensor
