Abstract:This study successfully fabricated flexible cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) structurally colored films by integrating a deep eutectic solvent (DES) into the CNC system through evaporation-induced self-assembly method and vacuum-assisted self-assembly method. The interaction mechanism between DES and CNC, along with the effects of both assembly techniques on the film’s microstructure, structural color, mechanical properties, and humidity-responsive behavior, were systematically investigated. The results showed that both methods enhanced the flexibility of CNC films. The vacuum-assisted assembly approach endowed the CNC-V and CNC/DES-V films with uniform structural colors (pearl-blue and cyan-blue), smaller polydomain structures and pitches (132 and 160 nm), higher tensile strengths ((58.4±2.1) MPa and (27.9±1.7) MPa), and a narrower humidity-responsive color range (from blue to light yellow). In contrast, the evaporation-induced self-assembly method provided the CNC-E and CNC/DES-E films with brighter structural colors (blue and cyan), larger pitches (136 and 175 nm), and a broader humidity-induced color-shifting range (from cyan to orange).
