Description
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of ink, in particular to a mechanochromatic ink and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The concept of photonic crystals (photonic crystals) was defined in 1987 by scientists s.john and e.yablonovtech. The micro-nano structure metamaterial with the dielectric constant periodically changing along with the space can modulate photons, and when the photons enter the periodically arranged dielectric material to propagate, the photons are modulated to form a photon energy band structure, namely a photon band gap due to Bragg scattering of the light waves at different medium interfaces. At this time, photons of the corresponding wavelength cannot propagate in the photonic crystal material and are reflected, so that structural colors can be observed. Since the diffraction of photons in the crystal conforms to the bragg formula, i.e. by changing the corresponding bragg constants (interlayer spacing, incident light and viewing angle, refractive index of the material), different colors can be seen by the observer. The use of photonic crystal materials to prepare inks has natural decorative or anti-counterfeit efficacy.
By applying external force to the photonic crystal material, the Bragg parameters of the photonic crystal material are changed, and further the structural color is changed, so that the mechanochromatic photonic crystal material is formed. Meanwhile, the mechanochromatic characteristic can be used for constructing anti-counterfeiting labels. The following ways of constructing the mechanochromatic photonic crystal are provided: first, a positive phase photonic crystal is built up from deformable nano-microspheres. Under the action of external force, the nano microsphere is deformed, so that the interlayer spacing of the photonic crystal is changed, and finally the structural color is changed. Common elastic nanospheres are generally composed of a hard core and a soft shell, such as SiO 2 PEGPEA, PS-ALMA@PEA, PMMA@P (BA-AA-AAm), and the like. Secondly, the reverse-phase photonic crystal structure is constructed by elastic high polymer materials, such as SU-8, polyurethane, PVDF and the like, then the reverse-phase photonic crystal is constructed by a hard template method, and then the hard template is removed, so that the preparation process and difficulty are greatly increased, and the material tolerance is also affected. And only the third mode, namely, taking common nano-microspheres as a main body and matching elastic polymer precursors as fillers, can construct the mechanochromic photonic crystal at one time, so that the complexity of the preparation process and the practicability of the use process can be balanced.
The difficulty in constructing the mechanochromatic anti-counterfeiting label is to obtain a high polymer material with proper elasticity so as to ensure the capability of endowing the photonic crystal structure with force-induced deformation, and the requirement is that the color change can be quickly caused after the external force is applied and the external force is withdrawn, so that the selection of the high polymer material becomes the most critical place in order to obtain better mechanochromatic effect. Firstly, the nano microsphere has proper affinity with the selected nano microsphere, so that a photonic crystal structure is easy to construct; secondly, under the condition of smaller deformation pressure, the change of the comprehensive refractive index is as large as possible, which is beneficial to the perception of color change; thirdly, the polymer can also meet the tolerance requirement of physical and chemical conditions in the use of the banknote.
There has been some research on the aspect of the mechanochromatic materials at home and abroad, including the aspects of preparation methods, performance research, application and the like of the mechanochromatic materials. Some operations similar to the present operation but with different points will now be briefly described:

The inventor provides a mechanochromic ink, a preparation method and application thereof through a large number of exploratory experiments. The ink with the mechanochromism effect is obtained by ultraviolet curing by taking the nanometer microsphere as a main component, taking an elastic polymer precursor as a base ink and matching with a photoinitiator. In the material, the nano microsphere forms a photonic crystal structure through self-assembly, so that the material has structural color, and the elastic polymer endows the material with the characteristic of deformation under the action of external force, so that the structural color is changed.
