Organic luminogens have extensive applications due to their unique photophys. properties. In recent years, nonconjugated organic luminogens, in contrast to traditional conjugated luminogens, have gained much attention because of their facile preparation, environmental friendliness, and biocompatibility. In this study, a new kind of nonconventional luminogen based on dynamic covalent cross-linked polyhydroxyurethane is reported for the first time. The new luminogen not only exhibits intrinsic strong fluorescent emission in the solid state but also possesses high mech. properties along with good shape memory and self-healing properties. In addition, the new luminogens are synthesized from aliphatic polyfunctional cyclic carbonate and amines via a much more straightforward method, avoiding the use of toxic isocyanates. Investigations indicated that the intrinsic luminescence of the resultant luminogens was induced by the crosslinking of polymer chains and could be well tuned by controlling the degree of crosslinking. By taking advantage of the unique characteristics of the resultant polymer luminogens, we further developed a facile method, named “light-mediated ink-free screen printing”, for anticounterfeiting paper fabrication. Different from traditional ink-based printing technol., the new method used UV-light instead of expensive security ink to encode anticounterfeiting information on natural cellulose paper. The anticounterfeiting information is stable under various wet conditions, showing promising applications in the fast-growing counterfeiting of pharmaceuticals, packaging, and the food industry. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as Diphenyl carbonate (cas: 102-09-0Category: esters-buliding-blocks).
Diphenyl carbonate (cas: 102-09-0) belongs to esters. Esters typically have a pleasant smell; those of low molecular weight are commonly used as fragrances and are found in essential oils and pheromones. Cyclic esters are called lactones, regardless of whether they are derived from an organic or inorganic acid. One example of an organic lactone is γ-valerolactone.Category: esters-buliding-blocks
