Referring to
In the embodiment, the first solvent can be trifluoroacetic acid.
In the embodiment, a structural formula of the compound B1 may be
In the embodiment, a structural formula of the compound B2 is
In the embodiment, the first reactant comprises sodium nitrite.
In the embodiment, the first reactant can be prepared by dissolving sodium nitrite in trifluoroacetic acid or in double distilled water.
In the embodiment, the first reaction temperature may range from 15° C. to 30° C., and preferably is 25° C.
When the reaction temperature is less than 15° C., a reaction rate would be too low that causes a too long reaction time. When the reaction temperature is too high, it would cause reaction by-products to increase that causes the yield of the compound B1 or the compound B2 to decrease. When the reaction temperature is 25° C., it would not produce excessive by-products, which causes the yield of the compound B1 or the compound B2 to decrease, and the reaction time would not be too long.
In the embodiment, the first reaction time can range from 5 to 35 minutes, and preferably 12 to 30 minutes.
In the embodiment, when the first reaction time is less than 5 minutes, the reaction time would be too short and cause the yield of the compound B1 or the compound B2 being too low. When the first reaction time is greater than 35 minutes, the reaction time would be too long and cause the reaction by-products to increase, which decreases the yield of the compound B1 or the compound B2. When the first reaction time ranges from 12 to 30 minutes, the yield of the compound B1 or the compound B2 is the maximum.
Referring to
In the embodiment, the first separating agent can be deionized water. The first volume can range from 80 ml to 120 ml, and is preferably 100 ml. When the volume of the first separating agent is less than 80 ml, the compound B cannot completely be separated from a mixed solution containing the first solvent and the first separating agent, which causes a loss of the compound B. When the volume of the first separating agent is greater than 120 ml, the dosage of the first separating agent is excessive, which causes a waste of the first separating agent. When the volume of the first separating agent is 100 ml, the compound B can completely be separated from the mixed solution containing the first solvent and the first separating agent, and it can prevent overuse of the first separating agent.
In the embodiment, the second separating agent can be an organic solvent that could dissolve the compound B and is not miscible with the first solvent and the first separating agent, such as dichloromethane.
In the embodiment, the first eluent can be a mixed solution of dichloromethane and petroleum ether, and a volume ratio of dichloromethane and petroleum ether is preferably 5:3.

In the embodiment, the second reactant comprises hydrazine dihydrochloride.
In the embodiment, the second reaction temperature may range from 30° C. to 70° C., and preferably range from 40° C. to 60° C.
When the second reaction temperature is less than 30° C., solubility of the compound B in the second solvent is too small, which causes the compound B reacts incompletely with the second reactant and the yield of the produced compound C is too low. When the second reaction temperature is greater than 70° C., the second reaction temperature is too high, which causes by-products produced by reacting the second reactant and the compound B to increase and then the yield of the compound C to decrease. When the second reaction temperature ranges from 40° C. to 60° C., the second solvent can completely dissolve the compound B, and it would not cause the reaction by-products to increase due to the second reaction temperature being too high and not cause the yield of the compound C to decrease.
In the embodiment, a structural formula of the compound C1 is
A structural formula of the compound C2 is
In the embodiment, the third reaction temperature may range from 70° C. to 110° C., and preferably range from 75° C. to 100° C.

Referring to
In the embodiment, the second eluent can be a mixed solution of dichloromethane and ethyl acetate.
Wherein, a volume ratio of dichloromethane and ethyl acetate ranges from 6:1 to 14:1, and preferably 8:1 to 12:1. When the volume ratio of dichloromethane and ethyl acetate is less than 6:1 or greater than 14:1, an amount of the purified compound C which can be obtained after leaching the second crude product and rotarily evaporating is too small, thereby causing the yield of the compound C to decrease. When the volume ratio of dichloromethane and ethyl acetate ranges from 8:1 to 12:1, the yield of the purified compound C obtained after the step S24 is the maximum.

In the embodiment, the first filter temperature can range from 70° C. to 90° C., and is preferably 80° C. When the first filter temperature is less than 70° C., the polymer F or the polymer H would precipitate, thereby causing the yield of the polymer F or the polymer H to decrease. When the first filter temperature is greater than 90° C., by-products in the second mixture would incompletely precipitate, thereby causing the obtained solution including the polymer F or the polymer H to have impurities. When the first filter temperature is 80° C., the polymer F or the polymer H would not precipitate and the by-products in the second mixture could completely precipitate.
Referring to
In the embodiment, the substrate can be a glass substrate.
Referring to
In the embodiment, the first oven can be an oven having a vacuum environment.

In the embodiment, an amount of the fourth solvent removed in the step S52a can range from 60% to 80% of the fourth solvent in the solution including the polymer F or in the solution including the polymer H, and is preferably 70%.
When the amount of the fourth solvent removed in the step S52a is less than 60%, the amount of the fourth solvent remaining on the substrate is excessive, which is unfavorable for cross-linking and curing of the polymer F or the polymer H in the step S52b. When the amount of the fourth solvent removed in the step S52a is greater than 80%, the amount of the fourth solvent remaining on the substrate is too small, which causes a less solvent for cross-linking and curing of the polymer F or the polymer H in the step S52b, thereby making the formed thin film material have defects such as cracks.
In the embodiment, the second oven can be a muffle furnace.
In the embodiment, the second drying temperature can range from 400° C. to 520° C., and preferably 420° C. to 500° C.
In the embodiment, the second drying time can range from 2 hours to 6 hours.
In the embodiment, the second predetermined process comprises immersing the substrate formed with the polymer F or the polymer H into a third separating agent, separating the substrate from the polymer F or the polymer H after a first soaking time, and transferring the separated polymer F or the polymer H to a third oven to obtain the thin film material after drying at a third drying temperature.
In the embodiment, the third separating agent can be deionized water.
In the embodiment, the first soaking time can range from 60 hours to 108 hours, and preferably 72 hours to 96 hours.
When the first soaking time is less than 60 hours, the polymer F or the polymer H cannot be completely separated from the substrate, thereby causing the obtained thin film material to have defects such as damage. When the first soaking time is greater than 108 hours, the soaking time is too long, thereby affecting a manufacturing efficiency of the thin film material. When the first soaking time ranges from 72 hours to 96 hours, the polymer F or the polymer H can be completely separated from the substrate, and the manufacturing efficiency of the thin film material can be ensured.
In the embodiment, the third drying temperature can range from 70° C. to 90° C., and is preferably 80° C.
