Abstract

The present invention belongs to the technical field of energy conversion devices, which provides an rGO-PEI/PVDF pyroelectric thin film, and the method for preparing the film, as well as a self-energized bracelet produced based on such film, which utilizes the reduced graphite oxide after modified by polyethyleneimine (PEI) (rGO-PEI) as photothermal conversion material, and the silver-plated polarized polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film as pyroelectric conversion material. The rGO-PEI photothermal material is fixed to the surface of the PVDF through a transparent film, and prepare the self-energized bracelet based on it. The obtained bracelet has an output power of up to 21.3 mW/m2, and does not require additional mechanical devices to control the temperature during operation, wherein, the thermoelectric conversion, rectification, storage and application are realized through temperature fluctuation produced by absorbing sunlight during doing outdoor sports, utilizing temperature difference of air flow, and sweeping gesture, etc.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A preparation method of a reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-polyethyleneimine (PEI)/polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) pyroelectric thin film, comprising:
Step 1. taking PEI as a modifier to complete chemical modification to GO (graphene oxide), and thus obtaining an rGO-PEI photothermal material after preparation comprises;
weighting GO powder and disposing the GO powder in deionized water by ultrasonic, adding KOH (Potassium hydroxide) and the PEI successively and stirring for 30 minutes to dissolve, and thus obtaining a mixed solution; and
placing the mixed solution in an oil bath at a temperature of 80° C. and stirring for reaction for 10 hours, centrifuging and washing the solution experienced reaction 3-4 times, performing freeze drying, and thus obtaining the rGO-PEI photothermal material,
Step 2. dispersing the rGO-PEI photothermal material in an ethanol solution, forming a layer of rGO-PEI photothermal material on a filter paper by means of suction filtration and drying the layer of rGO-PEI photothermal material at room temperature, and thus obtaining an rGO-PEI photothermal material layer;
Step 3. utilizing a transparent film to transfer and fix the rGO-PEI photothermal material layer on a surface of a PVDF film, and folding an edge of the transparent film and attaching the edge of the transparent film to an edge of the other surface of the PVDF film, and thus obtaining the rGO-PEI/PVDF pyroelectric thin film.

2. The preparation method of the rGO-PEI/PVDF pyroelectric thin film according to claim 1 , wherein a mass ratio of the GO powder to the PEI is 1:30.

3. The preparation method of the rGO-PEI/PVDF pyroelectric thin film according to claim 1 , wherein a pore size of the filter paper is 0.22 microns, and a surface density of the rGO-PEI photothermal material layer is 1 mg/cm 2 .
