    Abstract: A double-inverse opal photonic crystal resin film is formed by embedding nanospheres in pores of polyacrylate inverse opal framework material and then filling the pores of the double-inverse opal photonic crystal resin film with an ethanol solution with hydrophilic acrylamide dissolved therein followed by photopolymerization to form a polyacrylamide network, so as to obtain the double-inverse opal photonic crystal resin film using water as ink. A mass fraction of hydrophilic acrylamide in the ethanol solution is 2 to 8 wt.%. The resin film can induce water to penetrate into the pores of the double-inverse opal photonic crystal resin film, making the nanospheres in the pores of the inverse opal framework distribute from random to order under the action of buoyancy force, thereby eliminating scattering interference and producing brilliant structural colors by regulating refractive index contrast.

    Abstract: A structural color coating based on Mie scattering of high-refractive index microspheres has the following components in parts by mass: 5 to 20 parts of nano microspheres having a highly uniform particle size and a theoretical refractive index greater than 1.7, 75 to 90 parts of dispersion liquid, 0.1 to 5 parts of a surfactant, and 1 to 5 parts of an adhesive. The structural color coating forms a local microcosmic ordered, macroscopic long-range disordered structural film by means of spraying coating, blade coating, brushing coating, roll coating or dip-coating; the matrix is glass, metal, textile, ceramic, plastic or paper; the surfactant is sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate, cetyl sodium sulfate, stearic acid, or sodium stearate; the nano microsphere is at least one of ZnS, ZnO, CdS, Cu2O, CaS, CuS, Cu2S, TiO2, ZrO2 or CeO2; the particle size of the nano microspheres ranges from 200 to 500 nm.
