ABSTRACT
Photochromic inks have been an attractive authentication strategy to improve the anti-counterfeiting efficiency of commercial products. However, recent reports have shown significant disadvantages with photochromic inks, including poor durability and high cost. In this context, we developed novel photochromic nanofibres for advanced anti-counterfeiting applications. Lanthanide-doped strontium aluminate (LdSA) nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared and immobilized into electrospun cellulose acetate nanofibres (CANF). Authentication materials immobilized with inorganic photochromic agents can warranty durability and photostability. Therefore, the ultraviolet-stimulated photochromism of LdSA-encapsulated cellulose acetate nanofibres (LdSA@CANF) demonstrated high reversibility and photostability. A broad range of cellulose acetate nanofibres with unique emission characteristics was developed when applying different ratios of LdSA NPs. LdSA@CANF appeared colourless under visible daylight, whereas a green emission was monitored under ultraviolet-light illumination. The shape and chemical content of the photochromic fibrous films were examined using various analytical techniques. The mechanical characteristics of LdSA@CANF-coated paper were investigated. The emission wavelength was detected at 514 nm to designate green colour, whereas the excitation wavelength was detected at 369 nm to indicate transparency. The prepared cellulose acetate nanofibrous film can be described as an efficient strategy for the anti-counterfeiting of commercialized items.
