Description

Temperature-sensitive color developing liquid crystal microcapsule and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a liquid crystal microcapsule, and preparation and application thereof, in particular to a solvent-resistant temperature-sensitive chromogenic liquid crystal microcapsule and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Liquid crystals are a special form between solid and liquid, and have both liquid fluidity and crystal anisotropy. Liquid crystals are mainly classified into lyotropic liquid crystals and thermotropic liquid crystals according to physical conditions for forming a liquid crystal state, and thermotropic liquid crystals are further classified into nematic liquid crystals, cholesteric liquid crystals, and smectic liquid crystals according to an ordered state of their internal molecular arrangement. Cholesteric liquid crystals can be considered as a special nematic liquid crystal, in which liquid crystal molecules are arranged in layers in the direction of the short axis, the molecules in the layers are disordered but arranged parallel to each other, and the long axis orientation of the molecules in different layers is different, and they are periodically arranged in a helical structure by rotation in the direction of the normal to the layer. The twisted rotation of the liquid crystal molecules can cause the change of the refractive index, so as to reflect the incident light with a specific wavelength, wherein the wavelength of the incident light which can be reflected by the cholesteric liquid crystal is related to the pitch P, and can be expressed by the Bragg reflection formula: λ =2nPsin Φ, where λ is the wavelength of the reflected light, n is the average refractive index of the cholesteric liquid crystal, and Φ is the angle of the reflected light with the liquid crystal surface. When the wavelength of the reflected incident light falls within the visible light range, the color development effect can be achieved. Most of cholesteric liquid crystals are easily changed by the influence of external factors (such as magnetic field, electric field, light, temperature and the like), so that the cholesteric liquid crystals have wide application prospect in the field of optical color development. However, the fluidity of cholesteric liquid crystals makes them poor in processability and stability, and cholesteric liquid crystals are generally microencapsulated to maintain their controllable optical properties.
The microcapsule generally comprises a wall material and a core material, wherein the wall material is generally a natural polymer or a synthetic polymer, and the currently commonly used polymers mainly comprise gelatin, Arabic gum and olefin polymers. Such liquid crystal microcapsules have excellent water resistance but are not resistant to solvents, thereby limiting the application fields of the liquid crystal microcapsules. And the traditional preparation method mainly comprises complex coacervation and in-situ polymerization, and the production process is complex and is not beneficial to mass production.
Therefore, it is required to provide a temperature-sensitive color developing liquid crystal microcapsule in which solvent resistance can be significantly improved without affecting reflectance.

Detailed Description
In the following description, for purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention, however, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced without these specific details. The illustrated example embodiments have been set forth only for the purposes of example and that it is not intended to be limiting. Therefore, it is intended that the scope of the invention be limited not by this detailed description, but rather by the claims appended hereto.
The components used in the following examples can be synthesized by a known method or obtained commercially. These synthetic techniques are conventional and the resulting compounds are tested for compliance with electronic standards.
The invention discloses a temperature-sensitive chromogenic liquid crystal microcapsule which takes cholesteric liquid crystal as a core material, and the wall material of the microcapsule is formed by interfacial polymerization of a polybasic acyl chloride compound and a polybasic amine compound. The particle size range of the liquid crystal microcapsule is 1-50 microns. Preferably, the particle size of the liquid crystal microcapsule is in the range of 2-30 microns. The polybasic acyl chloride compound contains at least two acyl chloride groups, and can be selected from one or more of terephthaloyl chloride, isophthaloyl chloride, 1,3, 5-benzenetricarboxychloride, succinoyl chloride, oxalyl chloride, and adipoyl chloride.

The acyl chloride in the polybasic acyl chloride compound and the amino in the polybasic amine compound are crosslinked and polymerized to form a compact wall material, and cholesteric liquid crystal serving as a core material is wrapped in the wall material, so that the solvent resistance of the wall material can be improved under the condition of not influencing the color development brightness of the liquid crystal microcapsule.
The cholesteric liquid crystal can be a cholesteric ester liquid crystal including at least two of cholesterol acetate, cholesterol propionate, cholesterol n-butyrate, cholesterol pelargonate, cholesterol benzoate, cholesterol oleate carbonate, cholesterol oleate, chlorinated cholesterol, cholesteryl linoleate, cholesterol cinnamate, cholesterol ethyl carbonate, cholesteryl isostearoyl carbonate, cholesteryl butenoate, cholesteryl carbonate. By adjusting the type of the liquid crystal and the relative content of the liquid crystal in the core material, the color change range of the liquid crystal microcapsule can be adjusted, and the application range of the liquid crystal microcapsule is enlarged.
The invention also discloses a method for preparing the temperature-sensitive chromogenic liquid crystal microcapsule, which specifically comprises the following steps.
First, a cholesteric liquid crystal and a polybasic acyl chloride compound are dissolved in an organic solvent in proportion to form a uniform and transparent oil phase. The mass ratio of the polybasic acyl chloride compound to the cholesteric liquid crystal is 1: 3-1: 15. The organic solvent is solvent capable of dissolving cholesteric liquid crystal and polybasic acyl chloride compound, such as acetone, ethyl acetate, n-hexane, dichloromethane or cyclohexane.
Next, an aqueous phase containing an emulsifier is prepared. The emulsifier includes commonly used nonionic surfactants (such as alkylphenol ethoxylates (OP-10), polyoxyethylene octyl polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), etc.), ionic surfactants (such as alkyl sulfate, alkylbenzene sulfonate, etc.), and natural polymers (such as gelatin, gum arabic, starch, etc.). In the step, alkaline compounds can be added to adjust the pH, so that the reflectivity of the finally prepared liquid crystal microcapsule is further improved. The basic compound can be a base (e.g., NaOH) or a basic salt (e.g., sodium bicarbonate).
Thirdly, slowly adding the oil phase into the water phase containing the emulsifier, and emulsifying to obtain the emulsion containing oil phase droplets. Emulsification means may include stirring, high speed shearing, ultrasound, high pressure homogenization, jet, vortex mixing, and the like. In the present invention, the emulsification is carried out by means of stirring or high-speed shearing. The emulsifying speed is 500-10000 rpm, and the emulsifying time is 2-30 min.
Then, an aqueous solution of a polyamine compound is slowly added to the emulsion, and heated to polymerize the mixture to form a wall material. In the process, the polyamine compound and the polybasic acyl chloride compound in the oil-phase liquid drop are subjected to cross-linking polymerization at the interface of the oil phase and the water phase (namely the surface of the oil-phase liquid drop) to form a polymer film, so that the cholesteric liquid crystal is wrapped in the polymer film to form a core-wall structure. Preferably, the mass ratio of the polyamine compound to the cholesteric liquid crystal is 1:2 to 1: 30.
Finally, centrifugal washing. The emulsifier and the unreacted reactant can be removed by washing, and finally the dispersion liquid containing the temperature-sensitive chromogenic liquid crystal microcapsule is formed.
