present invention relates to a method for preparing a negative transfer material, and more particularly to a method for preparing a field emission cathode slurry. [Prior Art] An important component of the field emission (four) field (four) pieces. The field emission cathode is usually prepared by printing a cathode mass on the cathode electrode surface and then exposing the cathode emitter from the cathode slurry by a subsequent treatment. Taking the nanocarbon carbon as an example, the preparation method comprises the steps of: forming a first mixture in an organic solvent (usually anhydrous ethanol: Μ1 ultrasonically dispersed carbon nanotubes; and ultrasonically dispersing the glass powder in an organic solvent (usually anhydrous ethanol) Forming a second mixed liquid with indium tin oxide particles; mixing the first mixed liquid, the second mixed liquid and the organic vehicle to form a mixture; and evaporating and removing the organic solvent at room temperature. However, the first technique is equipped with nano carbon. The method of pipe slurry has the following disadvantages: First, the viscosity and plastic release of the carbon nanotube slurry are controlled because the evaporation time is accurately controlled according to the amount of the mixture in the process of evaporating and removing the organic solvent in the mixture. And evaporation temperature. If the evaporation temperature is too low or the evaporation time is too short, the organic solvent will remain in the final finished carbon nanotube slurry, thereby reducing the viscosity and plasticity of the carbon nanotube slurry. If the evaporation time is too long or too long, the organic carrier will have a relatively low organic loading, such as terpineol, which is excessively volatilized, so that the final finished nanocarbon The viscosity and plasticity of the tube slurry will increase. Second, the viscosity and plasticity of the carbon nanotube slurry are unstable. The reason is that it is difficult to completely remove the organic solvent by evaporation. Actually, 099111204 Form No. A0101 No. 3 Page / Total 22 pages 0992019713-0 201135799 In the process, the nano-barrel slurry containing anhydrous ethanol (even if the content is very small) in the screen printing process, because ethanol is easily volatilized at room temperature 'stay in The carbon nanotubes on the stencil will completely or partially block the stencil hole of the stencil, which will destroy the integrity of the screen printing pattern and also cause the stencil to be scrapped. The third 'dispersed in organic solvent The process of the carbon nanotubes, the glass frit and the indium tin oxide particles takes a long time, and the prepared carbon nanotube slurry has a high cost. [0007] [0007] [0007] In view of this, a The method can effectively control the viscosity and plastic seat of the cathode slurry, and the preparation of the cathode mass is stable and the plasticity is stable, and the preparation efficiency is high, and the preparation method of the cathode slurry with low preparation cost is really necessary. Preparation method' The method comprises the steps of: mixing a cathode emitter, an inorganic binder and an organic steroid to form a mixture, wherein the organic carrier comprises a diluent, a stabilizer and a plasticizer; and the above mixing is performed by mechanical extrusion and shearing The uniformity of the material is as follows: a method for preparing a cathode slurry, which comprises a step of mixing: a carbon nanotube, a glass powder and an organic carrier are mixed to form a mixture, wherein the organic carrier comprises a rare sputum, a sputum agent and an increase (four) And the release agent is terpineol', the stabilizer is ethyl cellulose, the plasticizer is dibutyl phthalate or dibutyl phthalate; the mixture is tested for particle size; three rolls are used. The press presses and shears the mixture to uniformly mix the mixture; and repeats the above steps until), the particle size of the clathrate is less than or equal to 15 microns 099111204. Compared with the prior art, the method for preparing a cathode provided by the present invention is omitted. Go to the step of using organic solvent (4) and remove the organic solvent. Form No. A0101 Page 4 / Total 22 Page 0992019713-0 [0008] 201135799 has the following advantages. The first 'because s Hai method does not involve The step of removing the organic solvent is as follows. Therefore, the viscosity and plasticity of the final finished cathode slurry are only related to the ratio of each component. Therefore, as long as the ratio of each component is determined, the viscosity and plasticity of the final cathode slurry can be obtained. Precise control, which is both good and repeatable. Secondly, since the method does not introduce an organic solvent such as anhydrous ethanol, the final cathode slurry has low volatility at room temperature, and no blocking phenomenon occurs in the subsequent screen printing process. The integrity of the stencil pattern transfer enables the reuse of the stencil' to reduce the manufacturing cost. Third, since the method does not involve the step of removing the organic solvent by organic solvent dispersion and evaporation, the prepared cathode slurry is improved in efficiency and cost. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, a method for preparing a cathode slurry according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. [0010] Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for preparing a cathode slurry, which specifically includes the following steps: [0011] Step--mixing a cathode emitter, an inorganic binder, and an organic carrier to form an & ', wherein the organic carrier includes Thinners, stabilizers and plasticizers. The cathode emitter just includes one or more of a carbon nanotube, a nanocarbon fiber, a metal nanowire, a semiconductor nanowire, and a semiconductor nanobelt. It is to be understood that any semiconductor or ribbon cathode emitter that can be used to emit electrons is included in the protection of the present invention. The cathode emitter is preferably a carbon nanotube. One or more of the nanocarbon 099111204 carbon nanotubes, double-walled carbon nanotubes, and multi-walled carbon nanotubes. Page 9 of 22 0992019713-0 201135799. The nano-walled carbon nanotubes having a diameter of 0.5 nm to 50 nm, and the double-walled carbon nanotubes having a diameter of 1.0 nm to 50 nm, the multi-walled carbon nanotubes The diameter is from 1.5 nm to 50 nm. The length of the carbon nanotubes is greater than 1 micron. Preferably, the length of the carbon nanotubes is from 5 micrometers to 15 micrometers. [0013] The inorganic binder includes one or more of glass frit, cerium oxide powder, and tin oxide powder. The glass frit is a low-melting glass frit having a melting point of 300 ° C to 600 ° C. The glass frit has an average particle diameter of 10 μm or less, and preferably, the glass frit has an average particle diameter of 1 μm or less. [0014] The organic vehicle is a volatile organic substance and can be removed by heating. Among them, the diluent provides the necessary flowability to the cathode slurry, and at the same time requires better solubility to the stabilizer. The stabilizer generally has a more polar group and can be formed into a network or chain structure with a plasticizer to increase the viscosity and plasticity of the organic carrier. The plasticizer is generally a solvent having a strong polar group on the molecular chain, and functions to form a multidimensional network structure with the stabilizer. The diluent may be terpineol, the stabilizer may be ethyl cellulose, and the plasticizer may be dibutyl ortho-dicarboxylate or dibutyl sebacate. Preferably, the plasticizer is dibutyl sebacate. The dibutyl sebacate has a boiling point of 344 ° C, good thermal volatility, and a highly polar ester group on the molecular chain of dibutyl sebacate, which can form a multidimensional network structure with ethyl cellulose. Since the molecular chain of dibutyl sebacate does not contain a benzene ring, dibutyl sebacate is a green plasticizer. The dibutyl sebacate is inexpensive and meets the large-scale, low-cost production requirements for screen printing. Further, a small amount of a surfactant may be added to the organic carrier, such as Siban, to enhance the cathode emitter and 099111204. Form No. A0101 Page 6 of 22 0992019713-0 201135799 Inorganic binder in an organic vehicle Dispersibility. [0015] In this embodiment, the cathode emitter is a multi-walled carbon nanotube having a diameter of 10 nm or less and a length of 5 μm to 15 μm, and the inorganic binder has a particle diameter of 10 μm or less. a low-melting glass frit, the organic vehicle comprising ethyl cellulose, terpineol, dibutyl sebacate and syrup, and the ethyl cellulose, terpineol, dibutyl sebacate and siban The mass ratio is 11:180:10:2. [0016] The mass percentage of the carbon nanotubes is 2% to 5%, the percentage of mass of the low-melting glass powder is 2% to 5%, and the mass percentage of the organic vehicle is 90% to 96%. 5%〜3°/。 The mass percentage of the carbon nanotubes is 2. 5% ~ 3 ° /. The mass percentage of the glass frit is 2.5% to 3%, and the mass percentage of the organic vehicle is 94% to 95%. It can be understood that the excessive content of the carbon nanotubes and the glass powder causes the viscosity of the carbon nanotube slurry to be too large, and the fluidity is poor, which not only causes the screen to be clogged easily when printed, but also causes the edges of the printed pattern to be irregular. The low content of carbon nanotubes and glass powder will result in poor plasticity of the carbon nanotube slurry. Not only the nanocarbon tube slurry is not easy to be formed when printing, but also a large number of holes in the printed pattern, printing poor effect. In the embodiment of the present invention, by selecting the proportion of each component in the carbon nanotube slurry, it is ensured that the carbon nanotube slurry has a suitable viscosity and plasticity to meet the printing requirements. [0017] In this example, four sets of different proportions of carbon nanotube slurry samples were prepared, as shown in Table 1: [0018] Table 1 different proportions of carbon nanotube slurry samples [0019] sample number nano carbon Tube content low melting point glass powder organic carrier content content form No. A0101 Page 7 / Total 22 pages 0992019713-0 099111204 201135799 A 0 · 3 (g) 0. 3 (g) 1 〇 (g) B 0. 3 (g) 〇·4(g) 1〇(g) C 0· 3(g) 〇·5(g) 1〇(g) D 〇·4(g) 0. 4(g) 1〇(g) This embodiment The carbon nanotubes, the low-melting glass frit and the organic vehicle are mixed together by mechanical stirring. The mechanical agitation time is approximately 15 minutes. [0020] In the second step, the above mixture is uniformly mixed by mechanical pressing and shearing to form a cathode slurry. [0021] The mechanical extrusion and shearing action can effect the mixture in a small distance range (e.g., a distance of 50 microns or less) so that the particles in the mixture are evenly distributed throughout the mixture. In the present embodiment, the mixture is preferably subjected to repeated mechanical extrusion and shearing operations to further uniformly disperse the particles in the mixture, so that the cathode slurry is used for field emission display with uniform brightness to meet the human eye. Requirements for brightness uniformity. [0022] The step of uniformly mixing the above mixture by mechanical pressing and shearing can be carried out by one or more of a roll press, a colloid mill, an emulsifier, and a kneader. In this embodiment, the mixture is crushed by a three-roll mill, which specifically comprises the steps of: performing particle size detection on the mixture; rolling the mixture with a three-roll mill; and repeating the above steps until the particle size of the mixture is smaller than that of the wire. 1/3 of the mesh aperture. Among them, this example uses a Model QXD granulometer to perform particle size detection on the mixture. The particle size detection is to detect the cluster size of the cathode emitter and the inorganic binder particles in the mixture. When the screen aperture is 60 microns, the particle size of the mixture should be less than or equal to 20 microns to meet the screen printing requirements.本实099111204 Form No. A0101 Page 8 / Total 22 Page 0992019713-0 201135799 [0023] [0024] [0026] The mesh aperture in the embodiment is 45 microns, and the particle size of the mixture should be less than or equal to 15 Micron to meet screen printing requirements. Referring to FIG. 1, the three-roll roller compactor 10 used in this embodiment includes a first roller 102, a second roller 104, a third roller 106, a feed slot 108, a discharge slot 110 and an electric motor (Fig. Auxiliary equipment such as not shown. The first roller 102, the second roller 104 and the third roller 106 are sequentially disposed in parallel, and a feed port gap 120 is defined between the first roller 102 and the second roller 104, and the second roller 104 and the third roller 106 are A discharge port gap 122 is defined therebetween. The feed chute 108 is disposed above the feed port gap 120. The discharge chute 110 is disposed on a side of the third roller 106 away from the second roller 104. When the three-roll mill 10 is in operation, the directions of rotation of the first roller 102, the second roller 104, and the third roller 106 are as shown in FIG. The mixture 112 enters from the feed port gap 120, is crushed by the first roller 102 and the second roller 104, is carried by the second roller 104 to the discharge port gap 122, and is then ground by the second roller 104 and the third roller 106. After pressing, a container 114 is introduced from the discharge chute 110. In this embodiment, the three-roll mill 10 is used to crush the mixture 112 in the gap working mode, which specifically includes the following steps: First, the feed port gap 120 and the discharge port gap 122 are adjusted to make the width of the feed port gap 120 The average particle size is the same as the mixture, and the width of the discharge port gap 122 is 1/4 to 1/2 of the width of the feed port gap 120. Preferably, the width of the discharge opening 12 2 is preferably 1/3 of the width of the feed opening gap 120 in this embodiment. Next, the mixture 112 is placed in the feed tank 108, and the three-roll mill 10 099111204 Form No. Α0101 Page 9 of 22 0992019713-0 201135799 is operated to start rolling the mixture 112. In the present embodiment, the three sticks of the three-roll mill 10 have a rotation rate of 150 rpm to 20 rpm, preferably 20 rpm. After the mixture 11 2 is crushed, it is introduced into the vessel 114 from the discharge tank 110. [0027] Then, after the particle size test of the milled mixture 112, the above steps are repeated until the particle size of the mixture 11 2 is no longer reduced. Finally, the widths of the feed port gap 120 and the discharge port gap 122 are adjusted to a minimum value and the mixture 112 is repeatedly crushed until the particle size of the mixture 112 is substantially constant. In this embodiment, the minimum width of the feed port gap 120 and the discharge port gap 122 are both 5 micrometers, and the mixture 112 is repeatedly rolled 3 times to 7 times in the minimum gap mode. It will be understood that the step of uniformly mixing the mixture by mechanical extrusion and shearing may further comprise the step of adding conductive particles to the mixture. [0030] The conductive particles include one or more of indium tin oxide particles, metal particles, and the like. The metal particles include one or more of gold particles, silver particles, ingot particles, and copper particles. The metal particles are preferably silver particles or aluminum particles. The conductive particles have a diameter of from 100 nm to 10 μm, preferably from 10 nm to 100 nm. [0031] In the embodiment of the invention, the carbon nanotube slurry samples were respectively subjected to a viscosity test. The viscosity of the carbon nanotube slurry provided by the embodiment of the present invention at a shear rate of 10/sec is 13 Pa.s~16 Pa·s. Please refer to FIG. 2 , which is a viscosity test result of the sample A of the carbon nanotube slurry provided by the embodiment of the present invention. It can be seen from FIG. 2 that the viscosity of the carbon nanotube slurry provided by the embodiment of the present invention decreases as the cutting rate of the 099111204 form number A0101 is increased, so the The carbon nanotube slurry is a pseudo-plastic fluid that is ideal for printing. Further, the embodiment of the present invention tested the brightness uniformity of the field emission of the carbon nanotube slurry sample enthalpy. In the embodiment of the present invention, 8x8 (8 rows, 8 rows per row) field emission units are printed on a glass substrate by using a carbon nanotube slurry sample, and packaged into a field emission display. Among them, each light-emitting small square has a size of 5 mm χ 5 mm. The embodiment of the present invention tests the brightness uniformity of the field emission display at a low voltage and a high voltage, wherein the voltage at a low voltage is 3150 V, the current is 2. 5 mA/cin 2 , and the voltage at a high voltage is 4160 V. The current is 10 mA/cm2. Please refer to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 for the display effect photo of the field emission display. It can be seen from Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 that the field emission display prepared by using the carbon nanotube slurry sample B has good uniformity of illumination, and the human eye has no obvious difference in brightness and darkness, and can meet the uniformity requirement of the large screen display. Referring to Figures 5 and 6, the field emission display brightness values corresponding to the field emission displays of Figures 3 and 4, respectively. It can be seen from Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 that, at a low voltage, the average brightness of the 64 light-emitting points is 27.93 cd/m2, the brightest is 30. 01 cd/m2, and the darkest is 25.12 cd/m2, and the brightness is the largest. The difference is 17.51%; at high voltage, the average of the brightness of 64 light-emitting points is 144.79 cd/m2, the brightest is 152.6 cd/m2, the darkest is 136 cd/m2, and the maximum difference between light and dark is 11. 46%. It can be seen that the embodiment of the present invention shows uniform emission of the carbon nanotube slurry under high and low electric fields, and there is no obvious difference in brightness between the human eye and the display uniformity requirement. The method for preparing a cathode provided by the present invention eliminates the step of dispersing a cathode emitter and an inorganic binder by using an organic solvent and the step of evaporating and removing an organic solvent. 099111204 Form No. A0101 Page 11 / Total 22 Page 0992019713-0 [0033] 201135799 [0034 [0038] [0038] [0038] The step 'has the following advantages: ―, since the method* involves the step of evaporating the organic solvent, the viscosity and plasticity of the final finished cathode slurry are only The proportion of each component is related. Therefore, as long as the ratio of each component is one, the viscosity and plasticity of the final cathode slurry can be precisely controlled, and the consistency and repeatability are better. Second, since the method does not introduce an organic solvent such as anhydrous ethanol, the final cathode bismuth has a low volatility at room temperature, and there is no blocking phenomenon in the subsequent printing process. The integrity of the plate pattern transfer enables the reuse of the stencil' to reduce the manufacturing cost. Third, since the method does not involve the step of removing the organic falling agent by dispersing and evaporating with an organic solvent, the prepared cathode slurry is improved in efficiency and cost.
