研究目的
To design and develop a versatile magnetic pattering and structuring platform for field assisted nanoparticle assembly and locally tailored pattern formation in printing and thin film coating.
研究成果
Based on 2D finite element modelling, a versatile print patterning platform allowing for local magnetic field assisted patterning during printing and coating has been designed and developed. Using Fe2O3 NP inkjet printing and coating on glass, tailored substructures within the printed features originating from local field assisted assembly of magnetic NPs are successfully generated. The developed local field assisted patterning technique is of high relevance and interest for advanced decorative and functional printing and coating, in particular for further developments in the application field of smart security tags.
研究不足
The modelling supposes substrate materials which do not alter or deviate the magnetic field compared to the field in air (or more accurately vacuum), i.e. for substrate materials with relative magnetic permeability close to 1.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The design is based on modelling of magnetic fields for a variety of field configurations using Finite Element Method Magnetics (FEMM
2:2). Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Glass micro slides (75 mm × 25 mm, thickness
3:00±04 mm) are used as substrates. A commercial UV curable ink (magnetite load 2% wt., particle size < 30 nm) and Fe2O3 Iron(III) oxide, dispersion, nanoparticles, <100 nm particle size (DLS), < 30 nm average particle size, 20 wt. % in H2O (17 g/mL) are used for the experiments. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
SonoPlot microplotter using a glass capillary nozzle (60 μm inner diameter), Neodymium-Iron-Boron magnets (NdFeB) (type N45, 1 mm lateral dimension, disks and cubes), reversed microscope (Leica DMILM), optical 3D profilometry (Filmetrics), dynamic light scattering (DLS, Nanolab 3D system (LS Instruments).
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Printing is performed with or without local external fields. Area coatings are obtained by blade coating.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
CONTIN analysis of DLS spectra has been performed using the LSI Correlator Acquisition software v1.3.1.6.
