Conductive polyurethane elastomer electrolyte (PUEE) materials for anodic bonding
RSC ADVANCES(2020)
Abstract
Polyurethane elastomer electrolyte (PUEE) represents a promising class of polymer solid electrolytes for the preparation and packaging of flexible devices by anodic bonding. In this work, PUEEs were designed and prepared via a pre-polymerization method and cured at room temperature using polypropylene glycol (PPG), toluene-2,4-diisocyanate (TDI) and 1,4-butanediol (BDO) in the presence of varying amounts of lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulphonyl)imide (LiTFSI). All PUEEs exhibited high thermal stability and conductivity, with the highest ionic conductivity of 9.6 x 10(-5) S cm(-1) for PUEE6 (n[NHCOO]/Li+ = 1) at 55 degrees C. The results showed that LiTFSI was dissolved completely in the polyurethane matrix, and the complexing reactions occurred between the lithium ions and the polar groups of polyurethane. After that, the prepared PUEE and the Al sheet were successfully joined by the anodic bonding process. The microstructures of the bonded interface between PUEE and the Al sheet with a clear intermediate bonding layer could be observed in the cross-section scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images, and the elements in each layer were also detected by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), which indicated that the PUEE and the Al sheet were bonded together. The maximum tensile strength for bonded PUEE6/Al was up to 0.45 MPa. All these results demonstrated that the prepared PUEE material would be a promising candidate for the preparation and packaging of flexible devices by anodic bonding.
