Electrochromic device based on multifunctional hydrogel electrolyte and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of electrochromic devices, and particularly relates to an electrochromic device based on a multifunctional hydrogel electrolyte and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Electrochromism (Eletrochromism) refers to a phenomenon that a material can generate reversible redox reaction under the action of an applied voltage, so that the optical performance of the material can generate stable reversible change in a visible light wavelength range, and the color can be changed in a reversible way in appearance. The material with electrochromic property, the corresponding ion conducting layer, the ion storage layer and the corresponding electrode are assembled together to form the electrochromic device with the display function. In recent years, the device has attracted wide attention from many countries, and the application fields of the device are mainly intelligent windows, electrochromic displays, intelligent dimming automobile rearview mirrors, military camouflage equipment, electrochromic storages and the like. Materials having an electrochromic phenomenon are called electrochromic materials, and the electrochromic materials can be classified into two major types, i.e., inorganic electrochromic materials and organic electrochromic materials according to structures. Tungsten trioxide and nickel oxide are widely applied in inorganic electrochromic materials, and have good stability but slow response speed. The viologen compound is a typical organic electrochromic micromolecule, has high response speed but poor stability, is difficult to prepare into a solid film, and is generally applied in a liquid device form. And compared with a liquid device, the solid device is safer and has better color-changing property. However, the solid-state device has a complicated structure and packaging problems, the solid-state device is generally composed of two layers of electrodes, an electrochromic layer, an ion conductive layer and an ion storage layer, and each layer needs to be constructed into a thin film and then assembled together, so that the manufacturing cost and the manufacturing difficulty are greatly increased, and the industrialization process is influenced. Meanwhile, organic solvents such as acetonitrile and the like are usually used in the film forming process, so that the method is harmful to human bodies and easily pollutes the environment, and therefore, the method is not in accordance with the environmental protection concept.
In summary, the problems of the prior art are as follows: at present, the electrochromic solid-state device has a complex structure and packaging problems, so that the device preparation process is complex; the use of a large amount of organic solvent is not in accordance with the concept of environmental protection.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to overcome the defects of the prior art, the invention aims to provide an electrochromic device based on a multifunctional hydrogel electrolyte and a preparation method thereof, wherein an electrode, an ion storage layer and an ion conducting layer are replaced by a layer of multifunctional hydrogel electrolyte. Not only greatly simplifying the structure of the device, but also achieving the effect of environmental protection by replacing organic solvent with water phase. Therefore, the method has great application prospect in the field of electrochromism.
The technical scheme of the invention is as follows:

secondly, uniformly spraying the aqueous solution with the electrochromic property on the surface of the multifunctional hydrogel electrolyte by using a spray gun;
and thirdly, uniformly placing the transparent ITO glass electrode on the surface of the multifunctional hydrogel electrolyte to obtain the electrochromic device based on the multifunctional hydrogel electrolyte.
Further, in the first step, the multifunctional hydrogel electrolyte is prepared as follows: dissolving 2.488g of acrylamide monomer in 17.5mL of deionized water, adding 1.5mg of N, N-methylene bisacryloyl imine, 2.5mg of ammonium persulfate, 5.94g of lithium chloride and 8 mu L of tetramethylethylenediamine, stirring for 1.5h, placing the obtained solution in a vacuum oven, standing at 60 ℃ for 1.5h to obtain colorless and transparent polyacrylamide hydrogel electrolyte, and washing with deionized water for multiple times to remove residual monomers.
Further, in the second step, an aqueous solution of PEDOT: PSS at a mass concentration of 1% was uniformly sprayed on the surface of the multifunctional hydrogel electrolyte using a spray gun.
And further, in the third step, uniformly placing the transparent ITO glass electrode on the surface of the multifunctional hydrogel electrolyte to obtain the electrochromic device based on the multifunctional hydrogel electrolyte.
Compared with the prior art, the preparation method has the advantages of simple preparation process, low cost, no harm to the environment and human health and contribution to large-scale application.
In summary, the advantages and positive effects of the invention are: the electrochromic device adopts the multifunctional hydrogel electrolyte as an electrode, an ion storage layer and an ion conducting layer at the same time, thereby greatly simplifying the structure of the device. The raw materials used in the invention are all commercial mature materials, and complex synthetic processes are omitted. The common organic electrochromic material generally uses toxic and harmful organic solvents to dissolve organic functional materials, a large amount of organic solvents are used in the preparation process, the invention uses water instead of organic matters as the solvents, reduces the damage to the environment and human bodies, saves a large amount of cost, has good repeatability and is very suitable for industrial application.
