Room-temperature phosphorescent transparent wood.

ABSTRACT: Transparent wood with high transmittance and versatility has attracted great attention as an energy-saving building material. Many studies have focused on luminescent transparent wood, while the research on organic afterglow transparent wood is an interesting combination. Here, we use luminescent difluoroboron β-diketonate (BF₂bdk) compounds, methyl methacrylate (MMA), delignified wood, and initiators to prepare room-temperature phosphorescent transparent wood by thermal initiation polymerization. The resultant PMMA has been found to interact with BF₂bdk via dipole-dipole interactions and consequently enhance the intersystem crossing of BF₂bdk excited states. The transparent wood matrix can provide a rigid environment for BF₂bdk triplets and serv
