Description

Cellulose porous activated carbon and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of natural polymer materials, in particular to cellulose-based porous activated carbon and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The electrode material is used as a key part influencing the electric energy storage capacity (namely capacitance) of the super capacitor, and the research on the raw materials and the preparation method is particularly important for the characteristics of large specific surface area, good cycle characteristics and the like. Porous carbon materials have received much attention from researchers because of their advantages of availability, adjustable microstructure, and large specific surface area.
In recent years, many porous carbon materials have been studied including graphene, carbon nanotubes, biomass carbonized materials, and the like. Graphene and carbon nanotubes have good electrical conductivity and large specific surface area, but the preparation method is complex and expensive, which restricts the application of the graphene and carbon nanotubes. The biomass carbonized material has attracted the interest of many researchers with low price and abundant reserves, especially the biomass carbonized material obtained by chemical activation. The method is a main mode for preparing the electrode material of the super capacitor because the chemical activation is mild and simple, the yield is high, the pore size distribution of the obtained carbon material is clear and the specific surface area is high.
In the process of preparing the carbon material, the activation methods generally adopted are a soaking method and a hydrothermal method, and the amount of the activating agent entering the material is not uniform, and the reaction conditions are not precise, so that the prepared materials have certain difference.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a preparation method of cellulose-based porous activated carbon. The invention adopts a grinding mode to fully mix the natural cellulose raw material and the aqueous solution of the activating agent; not only simplifies the preparation method, but also effectively controls the reaction conditions and the use amount of the activating agent.

2) and (2) putting the solid mixture prepared in the step 1) into an inert gas or nitrogen environment, and carbonizing at 500-1000 ℃ for 0.5-4 h to obtain the carbon nano tube.

When the activator of the present invention is an aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide, freeze drying removes the water leaving a solid potassium hydroxide and creating pores. In the carbonization process, at high temperature, potassium hydroxide reacts with carbon, and then the pore is formed by decomposition and gasification, so that the porous carbon material with large specific surface can be obtained.
In order to realize the full mixing of the natural cellulose and the potassium hydroxide aqueous solution, the grinding mode is adopted; further adopting a ball milling mode to fully and uniformly mix the raw materials with the aqueous solution of the activating agent; wherein, the grinding ball is made of one or more of zirconium dioxide, agate and steel ball; and/or the ball-to-feed ratio is 3-4: 1; and/or the ball milling time is 2-12 hours; and/or the rotating speed is 200-400 rpm.
