具有优异光学功能的高性能树脂在高端镜片、高清成像等光学领域有重要应用. 本研究以CO
2
、环氧化物和生物源的大位阻三元环状酸酐为单体,采用无金属催化的途径制备得到无规结构的聚(酯-碳酸酯),其数均分子量高达148.6 kg/mol. 通过改变环氧化物/环酸酐的投料比,所得产物的玻璃化转变温度范围为114~142 ℃,热分解温度范围219~284 ℃,为耐热性高的聚合物材料. 滴铸法所得该聚合物膜的透光率达91%,折光指数为1.50~1.52,阿贝数为46~57. 本研究结果为制备无金属残留的高性能有机光学材料提供了新途径.
High-performance optical resins are increasingly vital for advanced applications such as high-definition lenses and optoelectronic devices
yet simultaneously achieving high refractive index and high Abbe number remains a significant challenge. This study presents a metal-free
one-pot terpolymerization strategy to synthesize random poly(ester-carbonate)s from CO
2
epoxides (cyclohexene oxide or vinyl cyclohexene oxide)
and bio-based tricyclic anhydrides using a triethylborane (TEB)/bis(triphenylphosphine) iminium chloride (PPNCl) Lewis pair catalyst system. The resulting copolymers exhibit a high number-average molecular weight (
M
n
) of up to 148.6 kg/mol. By adjusting the epoxide/anhydride feed ratio
the glass transition temperature (
T
g
) can be tuned from 114 ℃ to 142 ℃
with thermal decomposition temperatures exceeding 219 ℃. Notably
the incorporation of the rigid
saturated tricyclic skeleton enables the resins to achieve a high refractive index (
n
d
=1.50-1.52) while maintaining a high Abbe number (
V
d
=46-57)
overcoming the trade-off typically found in organic optical materials. The films prepared
via
drop-casting demonstrate excellent transparency (
>
91%). This work provides a green
efficient pathway for developing high-performance
metal-free optical materials with superior thermal and optical properties.
