A Study of the Optical Properties of Triazene-Cinnamic Acid Polymeric Fluorescent Brighteners

Abstract:

Series of the triazene-cinnamic acid polymeric fluorescent brighteners were synthesized through three-step condensation reactions and polymerization reaction with styrene under replacing one of amino compounds of traditional fluorescent brighteners by cinnamic acid. The optical properties in aqueous solutions and N,N’- dimethyl formamide as well as paper coating application test were evaluated. The results showed that the light stability and fluorescence quantum yield of polymeric fluorescent brighteners was improved obviously and photoinduced isomerization was lower. Meanwhile the optical properties of polymeric fluorescent brightener were affected by concentration and solvent polarity, fluorescence quantum yield increasing and hypochromatic shift of fluorescence emmission wavelength with the decrease of solvent polarity. When the concentration was over 1 10-4 g/mL, the fluorescence was quenched.
