Description

Flexible thermal protection substrate for wearable electronic equipment and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of flexible thermal protection substrates, and particularly relates to a flexible thermal protection substrate for wearable electronic equipment and a preparation method thereof.
Background
With the continuous progress of material science and manufacturing technology, the society and the industry have made new requirements on the functionality, the portability, the comfort and the like of various electronic devices, and the flexible wearable electronic device has become an important development direction of new electronic devices. Compared with the traditional rigid electronic device, the wearable electronic device has the advantages of flexibility, elasticity and capability of bearing any deformation. Recent advances in mechanical design and materials have enabled high-performance wearable electronics with pre-diagnostic health management functions that can conformally contact human skin and accurately measure skin activity and physiological signals such as skin hydration, body temperature, blood flow, blood oxygenation, skin strain, blood glucose, and the like.
Many wearable electronics integrated on the skin consist of two parts: a functional electronic unit and a flexible substrate. The flexible substrate is skin-like flexible and has one side integrated with the functional electronic unit and the other side adhesively integrated on the skin. Functional electronic units often utilize light emitting diodes or thin film heaters that generate undesirable heat during operation that can cause discomfort or even damage to the skin tissue and, at the same time, can degrade device performance.
To reduce the undesirable thermal effects of wearable electronics, improvements to flexible substrates have been made primarily. Various types of silicone rubber are commonly used as flexible substrates, but the heat conduction coefficient of rubber materials is generally low, which is not favorable for heat dissipation.
The current improvement methods mainly comprise: 1) metal nanoparticles are mixed with the rubber matrix as a filler, but the metal particles introduced by this method weaken the flexibility of the rubber substrate; 2) the carbon nano tube or the graphene sheet is used as a filling material to be mixed with the rubber matrix, but the price of the carbon nano tube used by the method is high; 3) the phase change material (such as paraffin) is mixed with the rubber matrix, and the principle of phase change heat absorption is utilized to process the excessive heat, but the paraffin introduced by the method leaks from the rubber matrix in a liquid state.
