Abstract
The present invention discloses a burner and a synthesizing method for synthesizing carbon nanotubes by V-shaped and conical pyrolysis flames, and belongs to the technical field of the synthesis of the carbon nanotubes. In the specific method, inflammable mixed gas is combusted by a V-shaped equicrural body or a cone in the burner to form a stable flame surface, and a high-temperature environment-heat source necessary to the synthesis of the carbon nanotubes is provided. Central gas flow has the three elements, namely the heat source, a carbon source and catalysts, of the synthesis of the carbon nanotubes through reactant mixed gas, inert gas and metal catalyst nanoparticles, wherein the reactant mixed gas, the inert gas and the metal catalyst nanoparticles pass through a central tube, and single-walled carbon nanotubes can be obtained in the burner and at an outlet. Heat and the synthesizing processes of the carbon nanotubes are separated by the pyrolysis flame method, which is favorable for the control of the synthesizing processes. The present invention has the advantage that a sampling mechanism with a continuous conveyor belt is used, and the preparation of the single-walled carbon nanotubes with controllability, continuous batch, large size, a large scale and low cost is realized. In addition, flame temperature can be changed by regulating the wall temperature of the burner, which is favorable for the control of the synthesizing processes.
