DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0042] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present application clear, the present application will be furthermore described in detail below with reference to the examples. It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are only used to explain the present application, but not to limit the present application.

For example, A and/or B, which can mean that A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone where A and B can be singular or plural. The character “/” generally indicates that the associated objects are an “or” relationship.

[0044] In this application, “at least one” means one or more, and “a plurality of” means two or more. “At least one item(s) as following” or similar expressions refer to any combination of these items, including any combination of single item(s) or a plurality of items(s). For example, “at least one of a, b, or c”, or “at least one of a, b, and c”, means: a, b, c, a-b (a and b), a-c, b-c, or a-b-c, where a, b, and c can be single or multiple respectively.

[0045] It should be understood that, in various examples of the present application, the size of the sequence numbers of the above-mentioned processes does not mean the sequence of execution, some or all of the steps may be executed in parallel or sequentially, and the execution sequence of each process should be based on its functions and is determined by the internal logic and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the examples of the present application.

[0046] The terms used in the examples of the present application are only for the purpose of describing specific examples, and are not intended to limit the present application. As used in the examples of this application and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise.

[0047] The weight of the relevant components mentioned in the description of the examples of the present application can not only refer to the specific content of each component, but also can represent the proportional relationship between the weights of the components. It is within the scope disclosed in the description of the examples of the present application that the content of the ingredients is scaled up or down. Specifically, the mass described in the description of the examples of the present application may be a mass unit known in the chemical field, such as μg, mg, g, and kg.

[0048] In one aspect, the examples of the present application provide a frame sealant. The frame sealant in the example of the present application includes frame sealant glue, and conductive fibers dispersed in the frame sealant glue.

[0049] The conductive fiber has a three-dimensional helical structure, and the three-dimensional helical structure is shown in a of FIG. 1 and a of FIG. 2; bin FIG. 1 is a partial enlarged view of a. Electron microscope of FIG. 1 shows that the conductive fiber has an obvious three-dimensional helical structure, which corresponds to the schematic diagram shown in FIG. 2. In this way, the conductive fiber is added to the frame sealant in the example of the present application, and based on the good conductive properties of the conductive fiber, the frame sealant is given excellent conductive properties. At the same time, due to the toughness and unique three-dimensional helical structure of the conductive fiber, the conductive fiber is endowed with excellent mechanical properties such as toughness and strength, thus endowing the cured frame sealant with good mechanical properties and packaging bond strength, which improves the packaging stability and the anti-separation ability of the two substrates of the box.

[0050] In the example, the weight content of the conductive fiber in the frame sealant glue is 0.5%-0.8%. By increasing the content of the conductive fiber, the conductive fiber with a three-dimensional helical structure, in the frame sealant glue, the effect of the conductive fiber in the frame sealant glue is improved, and the packaging quality of the frame sealant is further improved. The toughness and packaging bond strength of the frame sealant are further improved.

[0051] In the example, the diameter of the three-dimensional helical structure of the conductive fiber is 350 nm-400 nm. Typical but non-limiting diameters of the three-dimensional helical structure are 375 nm, 380 nm, 385 nm, 390 nm, 395 nm, 400 nm, etc. In other examples, the helical pitch of the three-dimensional helical structure of the conductive fiber is 80 nm to 120 nm. In specific examples, the helical pitch of the three-dimensional helical structure may be 80 nm, 85 nm, 90 nm, or 95 nm, 100 nm, 105 nm, 110 nm, 115 nm, 120 nm and other typical but non-limiting helical pitches. The three-dimensional helical structure in this size range can further improve the toughness and strength of the conductive fiber, thereby improving the mechanical properties of the cured frame sealant, such as toughness and packaging bonding strength, thereby improving the bonding strength of the two substrates of the box and the stability of the package.

[0052] In the example, the diameter of the conductive fiber is 60 nm to 140 nm, and further is 60 nm to 80 nm. In the specific example, the typical but non-limiting diameters of the conductive fiber are 80 nm, 85 nm, 90 nm, 95 nm, 100 nm, 105 nm, 110 nm, 115 nm, 120 nm, etc. The conductive fibers in this diameter range have relatively excellent mechanical properties such as toughness and strength, thereby improving the toughness and packaging bond strength of the cured frame sealant.

[0053] In the examples, the surface of the conductive fibers in the above examples is modified by a coupling agent. The surface of the conductive fiber modified by the coupling agent contains functional groups, which effectively enhances the compatibility between the conductive fiber and the frame sealant glue components, improves the dispersion performance of the conductive fiber in the frame sealant glue, and shortens the frame. The curing time of sealant improves the bonding strength at the interface between the two substrates of the box and improves the packaging stability.

[0054] Specifically, the coupling agent includes a coupling agent containing an ethoxy group, such as a coupling agent represented by a partial sub-structural formula shown in b in FIG. 2, specifically such as KH550, KH650 and the functional groups contained therein. The coupling agents containing functional groups, such as coupling agents containing ethoxy functional groups, on the one hand, enhance the cross-linking between the conductive fiber and the resin component contained in the frame sealant glue, and improve the performance of the conductive fiber in curing the frame sealant. In addition, a strong chemical bond is formed with the two substrates of the box to enhance the packaging strength. Since the main component of the two substrates of the cell is generally silicon dioxide, the functional groups contained in the coupling agent, such as ethoxy functional groups, can form strong intermolecular forces with silicon atoms to achieve good bonds.

[0055] In the example, the conductive fiber in the above examples includes at least one of carbon nanofiber and carbon nanotube. These conductive fibers not only have excellent electrical conductivity, but also have good mechanical properties such as toughness, thereby improving the packaging bond strength of the frame sealant and the bond strength of the cured frame sealant and the mechanical properties of the urinary catheter.

[0056] In the example, when the conductive fiber is a carbon nanofiber, the carbon nanofiber is graphitized. The X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD) of the graphitized carbon nanofiber is shown in FIG. 3. It can be clearly seen from FIG. 3 that the XRD curve of the graphitized carbon nanofiber shows the graphite characteristic peak C(002)(100) (′JCPDS: 75-1621′), indicating that the graphitized carbon nanofiber has graphite lamellar structure.

[0057] The graphitized carbon nanofiber was further analyzed by Raman spectroscopy, and the Raman spectrum is shown in FIG. 4. As shown in FIG. 4, the Raman spectrum of the graphitized carbon nanofiber has an intensity ratio of D and G peaks at 1353 cm.sup.−1 and 1597 cm.sup.−1, respectively, I(D)/I(G) is 1.005, which all indicate that the graphitized carbon nanofiber, such as the spiral carbon nanofiber, is composed of graphite crystallites and partially amorphous structures. Since the carbon nanofiber is graphitized, the graphitized carbon nanofiber improves the electrical conductivity of the frame sealant, and also improves the mechanical properties such as the rigidity of the carbon nanofiber. Due to the excellent electrical conductivity, the addition of gold balls required by the existing frame sealant can be omitted, thereby improving the uniformity of the frame sealant package of the example of the present invention, improving the consistency of the box thickness, and the quality and effect of the package. Moreover, the surface structure of carbon fiber is partially changed, which enhances the compatibility between carbon fiber and frame sealant glue components, improves the role of carbon nanofiber in frame sealant, and the packaging strength of frame sealant after curing.

[0058] Specifically, the graphitization rate of the graphitized carbon nanofiber is 20%-80%, furthermore 50%-65%, specifically 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80% % and other typical but non-limiting graphitization rates. The carbon nanofiber of this graphitization rate further improves the electrical conductivity of the frame sealant and the mechanical properties such as the rigidity of the carbon nanofiber, and the dispersibility and compatibility in the frame sealant glue, thereby improving the packaging strength and conductivity of the cured frame sealant.

[0059] The frame sealant glue contained in the frame sealant is used as the base glue of the frame sealant. On the basis of the conductive fiber examples of the above examples, the frame sealant glue includes the following components by weight percentage:

[0060] epoxy resin 10%-25%

[0061] acrylic resin 60%-75%

[0062] photoinitiator 0.5%-1%

[0063] thermal curing agent 5%-8%.

[0064] Through the control and adjustment of the components and components of the frame sealant glue, the conductive fibers, especially the conductive fibers and/or graphene whose surfaces are modified by the coupling agent, can be fully dispersed under the full use of the conventional encapsulation effect of the matrix glue which improves the dispersibility of the modified carbon fiber and the compatibility between the conductive fiber and the frame sealant glue resin component, so as to give full play to the above effect of the spiral conductive fiber, and improve the packaging quality and bonding strength of the frame sealant.

[0065] In further examples, the epoxy resin may but not only include bisphenol A-type epoxy resin, other epoxy resins are also suitable for the examples of the present application. The acrylic resin may but not only include methacrylic resin. Other acrylic resins are also suitable for the examples of the present application. The photoinitiator includes an alkylphenone photoinitiator, specifically but not only at least one of α,α-diethoxyacetophenone and α-aminoalkylphenone. The thermal curing agent includes polyvalent aliphatic amine thermal curing agent, specifically but not only hexamethylenediamine and dimethylaminopropylamine. Other epoxy resins are also suitable for the examples of the present application. By optimizing the selection and optimization of each component of the frame sealant glue, the dispersion and compatibility of the frame sealant glue to the conductive fiber are improved, and the packaging quality and bonding strength of the frame sealant glue are further improved.

[0066] By adjusting and controlling the types and contents of frame sealant glue components and the content of helical conductive fibers, the viscosity of frame sealant is 240-270 mPa.Math.s, further 250±50 mPa.Math.s, specifically 240 mPa.Math.s, 245 mPa.Math.s, 255 mPa.Math.s, 260 mPa.Math.s, 265 mPa.Math.s, 270 mPa.Math.s, etc. typical but non-limiting viscosity. The viscosity data is the viscosity data at temperature. The viscosity range can improve the stability of the frame sealant dispersion system, improve the uniformity of the packaging, the packaging quality, and have a good packaging effect.

[0067] Correspondingly, the example of the present application provides the preparation method of the frame sealant of the example of the above text application. The preparation method process flow of the frame sealant in the example of the present application is shown in FIG. 5, and includes the following steps:

[0068] Step S01: pre-dispersing a conductive fiber and the components contained in the frame sealant glue to obtain a mixture;

[0069] Step S02: milling the mixture to obtain the frame sealant.

[0070] The pre-dispersing of the conductive fiber and the frame sealant glue in step S01 is to make the components evenly mixed. Therefore, as long as the mixing method can achieve the uniform mixing of the components, the mixing method is within the scope disclosed in the specification of this application, such as, in the examples, the temperature of pre-dispersing is 20° C.-30° C., and the stirring time is 2 h-4 h. The temperature of the dispersion treatment can be heated by a water bath. Both the conductive fiber and the frame sealant glue are respectively the same as the conductive fiber and frame sealant glue contained in the frame sealant above. Therefore, the conductive fiber in step S01 is the above-mentioned conductive fiber with a three-dimensional helical structure, a spiral conductive fiber.

[0071] When the conductive fiber in step S01 is a conductive fiber subjected to surface modification treatment by a coupling agent, in the example, the conductive fiber is used for surface modification of the conductive fiber with a coupling agent before the components contained in the frame sealant glue and the conductive fiber are mixed. In a specific example, the method of using a coupling agent to modify the surface of the conductive fiber can be but not only the modification treatment method in Example 1 as following.

[0072] In the example, the temperature of the milling in step S02 is 30° C.-50° C., and the milling should be continuous until the viscosity of the mixture reaches 250±50 mPa.Math.s. In a specific example, the number of times of milling may be 1-3 times, and the milling time for each time is 30 minutes, or the milling may be stirred at 30° C. for 3.5 hours. The milling temperature can be heated by a water bath. Milling under this condition can further improve the dispersion stability of the conductive fiber, and the electrical conductivity, bonding strength and stability of the prepared frame sealant.

[0073] Furthermore, during or after the milling treatment of the mixture, the step of defoaming treatment is also included. Defoaming treatment is performed on the frame sealant to improve the packaging uniformity and strength of the frame sealant and the packaging quality.

[0074] Therefore, in the preparation method of the frame sealant in the example of the present application, the conductive fiber of the three-dimensional helical structure is directly mixed with the frame sealant glue, and the conductive fiber is then milled, so that the conductive fiber can be uniformly dispersed, so as to give full play to its function, and endow the prepared frame sealant with the excellent performance of the above example. In addition, the preparation method of the frame sealant in the example of the present application is easy to control, so that the prepared frame sealant has stable performance, high efficiency, and reduced cost, and is suitable for industrial production.

[0075] On the other hand, on the basis of the above frame sealant and the preparation method thereof, an example of the present application further provides a display panel.

[0076] The structure of the display panel in the example of the present application may be a conventional structure, such as a box-to-box formed by including an upper substrate and a lower substrate, or an improved structure based on the conventional display panel structure. Regardless of structure in the example of the present application, the display panel contains the cured frame sealant of the above-mentioned example of the application. The display panel is packaged with the frame sealant in the application example above. The frame sealant can enhance the adhesion between the interfaces of the substrates contained in the display panel, enhance the anti-separation ability of the two substrates of the box, and the packaging is uniform and high in quality. Thus, the display stability of the display panel is improved, and the service life is prolonged.

[0077] In addition, the above display panel of the example of the present application can be applied to a display device. For example, the display device includes a display unit, and includes other units necessary for the display device. At least the display unit contains the cured frame sealant of the above example. The display device is packaged by the frame sealant in the above example, which improves the packaging strength of the related components of the display device, and the frame sealant can be uniformly packaged, thereby improving the packaging quality, thereby improving the quality of the display device and the stability of the working performance, extending the service life.

[0097] Performance Testing:

[0098] Preparation of Testing Sample:

[0099] The frame sealant peel strength test experiment was carried out on 0.5 t thickness PI-coated glass with a size of 40*36 mm. As shown in FIG. 6, the frame sealant was 5 mm away from the surrounding edge of the glass, and the cross-sectional area of the frame sealant coating was 3000±30 μm.sup.2.
