摘要

A new design of thermo-fluorochromic carboxylated nitrile butadiene rubber elastomer cross-linked by Eu

-COOH dynamic coordination with deprotonated imidazole as the ancillary ligand is reported. The elastomer shows facile tunable thermo-fluorochromism

exceptional mechanical strength

and high stretchability.

Abstract

Thermochromic polymers with tunable thermochromism

high stretchability and mechanical strength are of interests for optical information storage and encryption. In this work

we demonstrate a new design of thermo-fluorochromic carboxylated nitrile butadiene rubber (XNBR) elastomer cross-linked by Eu

-COOH dynamic coordination with deprotonated imidazole (DPIm) as the ancillary ligand. The presence of DPIm not only improves the mechanical strength and stretchability

but also dramatically intensifies the fluorescence emission and lifetime of the Eu-containing elastomer. The elastomer behaves reversible thermo-fluorochromism with easily tunable transition temperature and emission intensity by the simple change of the deprotonation degree of imidazole. The facile tunable thermo-fluorochromism

exceptional mechanical strength

and high stretchability (up to about 5000%) enable the Eu-containing XNBR elastomer with potential applications in soft electronics where optical information storage and encryption are required.
