Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are considered excellent materials for the construction of flexible displays due to their nanoscale dimensions and unique physical and chemical properties. By using the recognition properties of 2-ureido-4[1H]pyrimidinone (UPy), a versatile and simple methodology was demonstrated for the construction of macroscopic structures based on UPy-CNT/polymer composites prepared by a combination of two functionalization approaches: 1) covalent attachment of UPy pendants on the multiwalled CNT surface (UPy-MWCNTs) and 2) directed self-assembly of UPy-MWCNTs within polymers bearing UPy pendants (Bis-UPy 1 and Bis-UPy 2) by quadruple complementary DDAA-AADD hydrogen-bond recognition (D=donor, A=acceptor).
由于碳纳米管(CNTs)的纳米级尺寸以及独特的物理和化学性质,它们被认为是用于构建柔性显示器的优异材料。通过利用2-脲基-4[1H]嘧啶酮(UPy)的识别特性,展示了一种通用且简单的方法,用于构建基于UPy-CNT/聚合物复合材料的宏观结构,该复合材料通过两种功能化方法的组合制备:1)UPy侧链在多壁碳纳米管表面的共价连接(UPy-MWCNTs),以及2)通过四重互补的DDAA-AADD氢键识别(D =供体,A =受体),使UPy-MWCNTs在带有UPy侧链的聚合物(双UPy 1和双UPy 2)中进行定向自组装。
