A new hyperbranched zinc phthalocyanine(ZnPc)is prepared. The dielectric properties and thermostability are studied by using dielectric spectra and differential scanning calorimetry(DSC). Hyperbranched zinc phthalocyanine(ZnPc)dendritic system with high dielectric constant and very low dielectric loss is investigated. A high dielectric constant(15)is obtained: it is larger than most of the existing polymer materials. The dielectric loss is lower than 0.002 at a high frequency. Both the dielectric constant and dielectric loss display very small dispersion. It is believed that the Pc system with a new, branched structure can be applied in future high-technology fields such as high energy density storage devices, embedded capacitors, and pulsed capacitors, etc.
Motivated by the impetus of high-technology electronic devices, researchers are looking for high dielectric constant(the so-called high-k)materials[1-2]. Existing polymer-based dielectrics, such as metal-polymer dielectric materials[3] and ceramic-polymer composites[4], typically exhibit a percolative effect or a strong Maxwell-Wagner interfacial polarization, and these effects result in rather large dielectric loss and a strong dispersion of the dielectric constant. In this article, we report a novel zinc phthalocyanine(ZnPc)dendritic system with a high-k and very low dielectric loss, while the film is still highly flexible and has very good thermal stability. It is believed that the functional ZnPc films with high performance can be applied in future high-technology fields.
Figure1 shows the phthalocyanine dendritic system. The monomer, 1,2-bis(3,4-dicyanophenoxy)benzene, was firstly synthesized from the reaction of Catechol and 4-nitrophthalonitrile under the existence of K2CO3. In a flask, 1,2-bis(3,4-dicyanophenoxy)benzene(3 mmol)and zinc acetate(1 mmol)were dissolved in DMAc(40 mL), and then the mixture was stirred at 160 ℃ for 24 h. The reaction mixture was poured into 1 000 mL of DI water following by filtration, washed with water, and dried in vacuum. The bottled green hyperbranched ZnPc powders were finally collected after refluxing in methanol twice and dried in vacuum.
图1 超支化酞菁锌的结构及其合成路径ZnPc compressed pellets were made by cold isostatic pressing(Shenyang Kejing, China)with a pressure of 300 MPa. Au electrodes were sputtered on the top and bottom surfaces of the pellets for electrical measurements. The dielectric properties were measured by a frequency-response analyzer(Novocontrol, Germany). Poly(vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF)films were also fabricated and characterized for comparison.
The dielectric response for a compressed pellet of the hyperbranched ZnPc is shown in figure 2. As is shown here, a high dielectric constant ~15 can be obtained with a weak frequency dispersion. This value is larger than that observed in the existing high-k polymer, PVDF, which also shows very a large dispersion. In contrast, the dendritic ZnPc system has a very low dielectric loss over a wide frequency range. The loss is less than 0.002 at 10 MHz, which is much smaller than that observed in PVDF films and Pc oligomers(tan δ>0.5)[5]. Our measurements of a different pellet's dielectric constant showed no apparent thickness dependence. A similar high-k response has also been reported in hyperbranched polyaniline materials by Goodson and Yan et al[6]. Their investigation suggests that delocalized polarons may provide a way to enhance the dielectric response at a high frequency. The branched structure provides a way for long-range polaron delocalization, and, then gives rise to a small dispersion at high frequencies. However, further and detailed study should be performed to clarify the mechanism of the high-k response in the new dendritic Pc system.
图2 超支化酞菁锌及PVDF的室温介电频谱Figure3 presents the differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)curve of the dendritic ZnPc. It can be observed that the glass transition(Tg)occurred at about 768.5 K, which is much higher than that observed in PVDF. The mass reduction(not shown here)of the ZnPc system starts at a temperature higher than 700 K, also indicating very excellent thermal stability.
图3 超支化酞菁锌的DSC曲线In conclusion, an advanced hyperbranched ZnPc with high thermal stability is prepared. Improved dielectric properties are achieved. This can be attributed to the long-range and fast polaron delocalization in the branched structure. A high dielectric constant(15)is obtained even at 10 MHz, which is larger than most of the existing polymer materials. The dielectric loss at room temperature is lower than 0.002 at high frequency. Both the dielectric constant and dielectric loss display very small dispersion over a wide frequency range(from 10 MHz to 100 MHz). Further study has also been conducted in our lab to clarify the mechanism of the high dielectric response in dendritic ZnPc. It is believed that the Pc system with a new branched structure cn be applied in future high-technology fields[7-8], such as high energy density storage devices, embedded capacitors, pulsed capacitors, etc.
