Description

A kind of preparation method of controllable polarization thin film and application
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of preparation method and application thereof of controllable polarization thin film, particularly macromolecular material is prepared isotropic mesh nano fiber membrane by electrospinning, then that this nano-fiber film and liquid crystal material is compound, and along the direction stretching nano-fiber film that needs polarization, make nanofiber be orientated along draw direction, thereby obtain the controlled film in polarization direction along draw direction orientation and guiding liquid crystal.This film can be applied to show and sensory field.
Background technology
Polarization film be because it can control the conduction of light wave effectively, thereby is widely used at present in polarizing filter, auto bulb anti-dazzle apparatus and various polarizing microscope or the detecting instrument before the liquid crystal display, shading sunglasses, anti-dazzle safety goggles, camera, video camera mirror.
For this reason, people have developed diversified polarization film such as polarization by reflection film, dichroic polarizing film, scatter-type polarization film, tinsel grating type polarization film, the not tension type polarization film of activity and E type polarization film etc.
Light scattering type polarization film showing great attention to and being extensive use of in numerous polarization films owing to cheap, simple in structure, people of being subjected to easy to prepare.The principle of light scattering polarization film is that anisotropic polymkeric substance is mixed with the material with birefringence index.An index-matched of anisotropic material and birefringence index material, and be unworthy of with another one.When the polymeric blends uniaxial tension, according to the polarization of incident light direction, scattering will take place or see through.Utilize the strong scattering or the total reflection principle of light can make colourless scatter-type polarization film, it is higher to the transmitance of visible light wave range light, is specially adapted to the polarizing instrument that ask for something truly reflects natural light.
In the many decades in the past, people have developed diversified light scattering type polarization film, mainly are based on drawing process, and it is the dispersed liquid crystal thin polymer film that its typical case is represented as PDLC.When the PDLC film stretching, the liquid crystal droplet that disperses in the flexible polymer is stretched and the molecule of birefringence index is parallel with the drop surface, thereby produces or detect polarized light.But above-mentioned stretching is arranged and is existed some problems to be still waiting to solve.Except the film transfer process of complexity, stretching to arrange depends on polymkeric substance usually at the intersegmental stretch capability of the chain that tangles.This needs viscoelasticity film and suitable draw speed, will cause physical disturbance otherwise stretch.On the other hand, limited extensibility is tended to drop is become ellipse, and whole grappling liquid crystal molecules on draw direction.These shortcomings greatly reduce the efficient of polarization film, therefore are necessary the light scattering type polarization film that development efficiency is higher.
In fact, the polarization film device that just has some function admirables at nature.For example, the compound eye of some spiders is responsive to the polarized light response, and its reason just is the orientations of the nano rod about 100 nanometers on its retina.Inspired by this, people will be orientated electro spinning nano fiber film and the compound light scattering type polarization film of successfully having prepared function admirable of liquid crystal.Its optical property has surpassed present known various light scattering type polarization films.The nanofiber that its keys to success just are to be orientated in the higher and nano-fiber film of the orientation of electro spinning nano fiber film has bigger specific surface area, therefore can cause more liquid crystal molecular orientation to be arranged by its surface.
Certainly, also there are some problems of its use aspect in the light scattering type polarization film that is composited of orientating type electro spinning nano fiber film and liquid crystal material.For example, in actual use, polarization film often needs to adjust its polarization direction.For the light scattering type polarization film that orientating type electro spinning nano fiber film and liquid crystal are composited, then have only whole film rotation could be realized this function.Traditional PDLC then only needs to stretch and can realize along the polarization direction.And be not suitable for the light scattering type polarization film that orientating type electro spinning nano fiber film and liquid crystal are composited equally by senser element that stretch to realize polarization, because its orientation is fixing and in case change is difficult for recovery.
Summary of the invention

Technical scheme: for this reason, the present invention induces the nanofiber of the big specific surface area of liquid crystal arrangement to combine with in the stretching among the PDLC and the nano-fiber film, compound with netted electro spinning nano fiber film and liquid crystal, can have the controlled novel light scattering type polarization film of polarization orientation with preparation.
Controllable polarization thin film of the present invention is characterized in that being prepared as follows:
A, at first obtain unordered netted electro spinning nano fiber film by electrospinning;
Secondly B, liquid crystal material is injected netted electro spinning nano fiber film and compound with it;
C, will stretch along the direction of needs orientation with the compound mesh nano fiber membrane of liquid crystal material makes nanofiber on the mesh nano fiber membrane along the draw direction orientation and and then arrange along the nanofiber direction of orientation by its spatial induction liquid crystal material and to realize control that polarisation of light is orientated.
