Abstract:

In this work, hyperbranched polyurethane elastomer (HBPUE) electrolyte and aluminum foil (Al) were joined together by anodic bonding. It provides a possibility for packaging of flexible devices to use anodic bonding. The HBPUEs were designed and prepared via prepolymerization method cured at room temperature using polypropylene glycol (PPG), toluene-2,4-diisocyanate(TDI), lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) and the varying ratios of trimethylolpropane (TMP)/1,4-butanediol (BDO). All HBPUEs prepared exhibited low glass transition temperature (Tg) and good thermal stability. The highly branched structures increase the proportion of amorphous phase of HBPUEs, resulting in a high ionic conductivity with a highest value of 2.38 × 10−4 S cm−1 at 70 °C when adding TMP and BDO at the ratio of 0.45:0.45 (HBPUE3). There are no obvious diffraction peaks of the LiTFSI in the XRD patterns, indicating that LiTFSI was dissolved in polyurethane matrix completely. XRD results show that the structures of PEO-PUEs are amorphous. The HBPUEs prepared have good mechanical properties that can be used as packaging material. After bonded, the microstructures of the bonded interface between HBPUE and Al with a clear intermediate bonding layer could be observed by the cross-sectional scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images, and the elements diffused were also detected by the energy-dispersive spectrometer (EDS), indicating that the HBPUEs and Al were bonded together successfully. The maximum tensile strength for HBPUE3/Al was up to 1.15 MPa. All results demonstrated that the HBPUEs prepared would be a promising packaging material for flexible devices applied to anodic bonding.
