无氟强偶极聚合物表现出可调谐的铁电性

美国凯斯西储大学Lei Zhu团队揭示了无氟强偶极聚合物表现出可调谐的铁电性。2025年7月3日,该研究成果发表在《科学》杂志。

目前对铁电聚合物的研究主要集中在聚偏氟乙烯(PVDF)基含氟聚合物上,因为它们具有优异的性能。然而,由于环境问题,它们被认为是“永远的化学物质”。

研究组描述了一个合理设计的无氟铁电聚合物家族,具有聚氧丙烯主链和二磺酰烷基侧链和C3间隔:SO2CH2CHRCH2SO2(R = H或CH3)实验和模拟结果均表明,相邻二磺酰基之间的强偶极-偶极相互作用在凝聚态下诱导铁电有序,这可以通过改变R基团来调整:R = H时的铁电或R = CH3时的弛豫铁电。在低电场下,弛豫聚合物表现出与最先进的PVDF基四聚物相当的电致动和电热性能。

Abstract: Current research on ferroelectric polymers centers predominantly on poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF)–based fluoropolymers because of their superior performance. However, they are considered “forever chemicals” with environmental concerns. We describe a family of rationally designed fluorine-free ferroelectric polymers, featuring a polyoxypropylene main chain and disulfonyl alkyl side chains with a C3 spacer: SO2CH2CHRCH2SO2 (R = H or CH3). Both experimental and simulation results demonstrate that strong dipole-dipole interactions between neighboring disulfonyl groups induce ferroelectric ordering in the condensed state, which can be tailored by changing the R group: ferroelectric for R = H or relaxor ferroelectric for R = CH3. At low electric fields, the relaxor polymer exhibits electroactuation and electrocaloric performance comparable with those of state-of-the-art PVDF-based tetrapolymers.
