Problems solved by technology

[0003] Most of the existing electrochromic devices that have been initially applied are still limited to traditional rigid devices, and the production cost remains high. With the continuous change of people's needs, traditional rigid devices can no longer meet people's needs. People's demand for flexible devices With greater demand, this has led to a growing market for flexible electrochromic films, flexible devices, and flexible wearables
[0004] However, due to the need for packaging of electrochromic devices at this stage, different sizes need to be customized, which greatly increases the preparation cost of electrochromic film devices, and due to the large difference in application scenarios, the cost of customization cannot be underestimated, and electrochromic devices Long response time limits its commercial development

Abstract

The invention discloses an electrochromic device capable of being cut at will and application. The electrochromic device comprises a first transparent flexible substrate, a first transparent electronic conductive layer, an electrochromic layer, an electrolyte, an ion storage layer, a second transparent electronic conductive layer and a second transparent flexible substrate which are stacked in sequence, wherein the electrolyte can be automatically cured when meeting air and / or moisture so as to have an automatic packaging function. Compared with an electrochromic device prepared from solid electrolyte, the electrochromic device provided by the invention has shorter response time and better reliability, greatly reduces the risk of liquid leakage, and can be cut at will to be applied to different occasions.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electrochromic materials and devices, in particular to an electrochromic device that can be cut arbitrarily and its application. Background technique [0002] Electrochromism is the use of organic color-changing materials and / or inorganic color-changing materials under the action of alternating high and low or positive and negative external electric fields, by injecting or extracting charged ions or electrons, so that the coloring state of low transmittance and the achromatic color of high transmittance The special phenomenon of reversible changes between states is manifested in the principle of reversible changes in color and transparency in terms of appearance performance. Electrochromic materials have the characteristics of controllable structure, rich colors, low cost, and low energy consumption. They are mainly used in construction, automobiles, electronic instruments and other products. They can adjust and co...
