  • Patent number: 12082484
    Abstract: Disclosed is a fluorine-substituted Pi(?)-bridge selenide polymer acceptor material, its preparation and application. The selenide polymer acceptor material is named PYSe2FT and is synthesized by Knoevenagel condensation reaction and Still cross-coupling reaction; the material PYSe2FT takes a selenium-substituted core donor unit as a main structure, and combines a difluoro-substituted thiophene ?-electronic connection unit, where the selenium-substituted core donor unit and the difluoro-substituted thiophene ?-electronic connection unit can effectively regulate and control the molecular energy level, so that molecules generate good accumulation, thus making PYSe-2FT an excellent polymer acceptor material.

  • Publication number: 20230303764
    Abstract: Disclosed are a ternary polymer donor material, a preparation method and application thereof. The ternary polymer donor material is prepared by Still cross-coupling reaction of chlorinated thiophene (BDT-2Cl), fluorinated thiophene (BDT-2F) and brominated thiophene (BDT-2Br). Terpolymer synthesized in the application is a ternary polymeric donor material based on synergistic effect of fluorine (F) and chlorine (Cl), molecular energy levels of the ternary polymeric donor material are effectively adjusted by controlling contents of the BDT-2Cl, thereby showing graded voltage change, and a balance between driving force and energy loss is achieved through the synergistic effect of the F and the Cl.

  • Publication number: 20230295051
    Abstract: The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of melt blown dies, and provides a preparation method for a low friction coating for a melt blown die. In the present disclosure, pretreatment, activation treatment, chemical deposition, and calcination are conducted on a surface of the melt blown die in sequence to deposit an Ni—P—Re coating on the surface of the melt blown die, thereby reducing the friction coefficient of the melt blown die. In the present disclosure, surface smoothness and hardness of the coating are improved by limiting the composition and ratio of a deposition solution used for the chemical deposition. The results of examples show that the low friction coating for a melt blown die prepared by the preparation method provided by the present disclosure has a thickness of 3.2 ?m, hardness of 820 HV, roughness Ra of 0.02 ?m, and a friction coefficient of 0.35 under non-lubricating conditions.

  • Publication number: 20210285030
    Abstract: A kit is employed in the method for detecting droplet drift or deposition characteristics of spray. The detection kit includes detection membranes carrying immobilized probes, transition probes capable of specifically binding to the immobilized probes, and biotinylated chromogenic probes capable of specifically binding to the transition probes. The transition probes are added to the agricultural spray as tracers. After spraying, the sprayed transition probes specifically bind to the immobilized probes on the detection membranes. The biotinylated chromogenic probes are added to bind to the transition probes through hybridization. After the chromogenic treatment, the deposition volume of droplets is determined according to the color depth, and the droplet parameters are determined according to the position and size of chromogenic spots.
