To achieve efficient polymer-based room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials, covalently embedding phosphors into the polymer matrix appeared as the most appealing approach. However, it is still highly challenging to fabricate RTP materials on a large scale because of the inefficient binding engineering and time-consuming covalent reactions. Here, we have proposed a scalable preparation approach for RTP materials by the facile B─O click reaction between boronic acid–modified phosphors and polyhydroxy polymer matrix. The ab initio molecular dynamics simulations demonstrated that the phosphors were effectively immobilized, resulting in the suppressed nonradiative transitions and activated RTP emission. In comparison to the reported covalent binding time of several hours, such a B─O click reaction can be accomplished within 20 s under ambient environment. The developed strategy simplified the construction of polymer-based RTP polymeric materials by the introduction of facile click chemistry. Our success provides inspirations and possibilities for the scale-up production of RTP materials.
Polymer-based materials emerge as promising building blocks for passive daytime radiative cooling (PDRC) due to their affordability and ease of production. Enhancing these polymers with inorganic particle doping has shown to boost their mechanical properties and light scattering ability, a result of the increased refractive index contrast with air. However, the incorporation of a single type of inorganic particle often falls short in optimizing overall performance. Herein, we introduce a novel approach by simultaneously integrating high refractive index zirconium dioxide (ZrO 2 ) and wide band gap silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) dielectric particles into polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrix. This dual-particle strategy synergistically improves the radiative cooling capabilities of the resulting photonic film. Remarkably, with a thickness of 1,000 μm, it achieves an impressive 96.7% reflection of solar irradiance , while maintaining a high emissivity of 95.2% in the atmospheric window . Under solar intensity of ∼836.7 W/m 2 , it delivers an average cooling power of 82.42 W/m 2 , achieving a substantial sub-ambient temperature drop of up to 8.26 °C. We further explored its effectiveness in enhancing freshwater collection efficiency, leveraging its radiative cooling properties. Furthermore, the photonic film also exhibits versatile properties including flexibility, hydrophobicity , thermal stability, color scalability, and weather resistance, thus enhancing its suitability for various practical applications.
