Technical field
The invention belongs to inorganic advanced technical field of nanometer material preparation, relate to the tin ash that a kind of crystallite dimension is controlled
Microsphere and preparation method and application.
Background technology
SnO2Being a kind of broad-band gap n-type semiconductor, energy gap is 3.6eV, and chemical stability is good, electron transfer energy
Power is fast, and has high visible light transmissivity, novel solar battery, lithium ion battery, gas sensor, electrically conducting transparent with
And photocatalysis field has wide application prospect, therefore, the tin dioxide nanometer material tool of synthesis size, pattern, structure-controllable
Significant.
Grain size is a few nanometer or the SnO of tens nanometers2Granule has high specific surface area and more avtive spot,
Therefore, its more physics and chemical characteristic can be given.But, there is a lot of problem in small-size grains: example when reality is applied
As, little crystal grain is easily reunited, and reduces its reactivity;The size of little crystal grain is much smaller than visible wavelength, uses it for the sun
The capture of sunlight it is unfavorable for during energy battery light anode material;For the material of (sub-) micron-scale, nano-scale
Little crystal grain is not easy to reclaim;Little granule dense accumulation, is unfavorable for the infiltration of ion, electrolyte solution or other reaction systems.Closely
Research over Nian shows, prepares the SnO of multilevel hierarchy2Microsphere can expand SnO significantly2The range of nano material.Multilevel hierarchy
SnO2Microsphere is by SnO2Nano-crystalline granule self assembly gathering forms, and it remains SnO2The advantage of nano-particle high-specific surface area, with
Time be also equipped with easily the reclaiming of micronsize material, the advantage of high light scattering, additionally the hole of multilevel hierarchy microsphere is by nanocrystalline
Grain stacking obtains, usually mesopore size, contributes to the abundant infiltration of electrolyte.Therefore, synthesis multilevel hierarchy SnO2Microsphere has
There is significant application value, especially the cyclical stability of the photoelectric transformation efficiency and lithium ion battery that improve solaode is had weight
Want meaning.
Xiongwen Lou et al. with crystallization stannous chloride as Xi Yuan, sodium hydroxide as alkali source, add carbamide as pattern
Adjusting control agent, the multilevel hierarchy microsphere that solvent-thermal process is assembled by tin oxide nano sheet, this microsphere is used for lithium-ion electric
Specific capacity that Chi Shiyou is higher and the biggest electric current density, it is most important to the formation of microsphere, instead that they also find that carbamide adds
Answer the microsphere (J.Phys.Chem.C 2011,115,24605 that then cannot obtain size uniform in thing without carbamide
24610).Peining Zhu et al. use crystallization stannic chloride be Xi Yuan, lithium salts as pore creating material, synthesized Jie by molten-salt growth method
Hole multilevel hierarchy SnO2Microsphere, had both possessed high surface absorbing dye sub-micro meter ruler simultaneously after DSSC
The very little light scattering ability that improve battery, but the Microsphere Size that this high temperature solid-state method obtains is the most uneven, can be also in microsphere
Can residual impurity (Chem.Commun., 2012,48,10865 10867).Yu-Fen Wang et al. uses crystallization stannous chloride
For Xi Yuan, with ethylenediamine for Morphological control agent, synthesize mesoporous multilevel hierarchy SnO by combination of ultrasound solvent thermal two step2Microsphere,
But the Microsphere Size that this method obtains is relatively big (about 2.2 microns), and Microsphere Size uneven (J.Power Sources,
2015,280,476–482).Guanglu Shang et al. with stannous sulfate as Xi Yuan, solvent-thermal process multilevel hierarchy SnO2
Microsphere, but Microsphere Size distribution is the most uneven, and diameter Distribution is wider, from 100 to 800nm, in addition as microsphere group substantially
The nano-crystalline granule crystallinity becoming unit is not the most preferable (J.Phys.Chem.C 2012,116,20140-20145).
More than research shows, multilevel hierarchy SnO2Microsphere has wide practical use, but the most good method
The SnO of synthesis even size distribution (single dispersing or quasi-single dispersing)2Microsphere, additionally as constituting the nanocrystalline of microsphere elementary cell
The size of granule regulates and controls also few people and mentions that actually this is to affect the long-pending key component with active site of microsphere surface.Cause
This, be highly desirable to develop a kind of easy wet-chemical that need not extra additive (such as pore creating material, Morphological control agent)
Method synthesizes the SnO of even size distribution2Microsphere.
