Description

Preparation method of high-purity narrow-diameter-distribution small-diameter double-wall carbon nano tube
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of structure control preparation of carbon nanotubes, in particular to a preparation method of a double-wall carbon nanotube with high purity, narrow diameter distribution and small diameter.
Background
The double-wall carbon nano tube can be regarded as a one-dimensional hollow tubular structure formed by coaxially curling double-layer graphene, and has good flexibility, ultrahigh specific surface area and excellent mechanical and electrical properties. And, because the peculiar double-deck pipe wall structure, compare in single-walled carbon nanotube, double-walled carbon nanotube has higher mechanical strength, and the form of mass transfer is diversified between the interior outer wall, has more abundant diversified application. Moreover, the outer tube wall of the double-walled carbon nanotubes protects the inner tube wall, and the structurally sound inner wall maintains good mechanical and electron transport properties even if the outer wall is functionalized to some extent (1 Yao Zhao, Jinquan Wei, Robert Vajtai, Pulickel M.Ajayan & Enrique V.Barrera.SCIENTIFIC report.1 (83): SEP 6 (2011)). Therefore, the double-wall carbon nano tube can functionalize the outer wall thereof to improve the compatibility of the double-wall carbon nano tube with other substances, can keep the excellent properties of the single-wall carbon nano tube such as mechanics, electricity, heat and the like, and has attractive application potential. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a structure-controlled preparation technique of double-walled carbon nanotubes.
At present, double-walled carbon nanotubes are generally prepared by a supported chemical vapor deposition method (reference 2Guoqing Ning, Yi Liu, Fei Wei, Qian Wen, Guohua Luo. J Phys Chem C,2007,111: 1969-. The supported chemical vapor deposition method needs to support the catalyst on a porous matrix, so a post-treatment process is needed to remove the carrier in the product, and the problems of complex preparation process, structural defects introduced in the carrier removing process and the like exist. The floating catalyst chemical vapor deposition method (floating method) takes an organic metallocene as a catalyst precursor, the catalyst precursor is carried into a reaction zone by utilizing carrier gas, the metallocene is decomposed in a high-temperature zone and forms metal nano-particles, and a carbon source is decomposed, permeated and separated out of the double-wall carbon nano-tube on the metal particles under proper conditions. Other impurities are not introduced in the whole preparation process, and the preparation method can be used for continuous preparation, so that the macroscopic quantity double-wall carbon nano tube with high quality and high purity is expected to be prepared. However, the double-walled carbon nanotube sample grown by the floating method has the problems of low purity, poor structural uniformity, large diameter (>3nm), mixture of double-walled carbon nanotubes and other carbon nanotubes in most products, and the like, and further performance and application research is limited. At present, the controllable preparation technology of the double-walled carbon nano-tube with high purity and small diameter is still blank at home and abroad. Therefore, the controllable preparation technology of the double-wall carbon nano tube with high purity, high crystallinity, high quality, uniform diameter and small diameter has important academic significance and application value.

The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to examples and the accompanying drawings.
Example 1.
Firstly, preparing a mixed solution of toluene, ferrocene and sulfur powder with the mass ratio of 100:3:0.25, and carrying out ultrasonic treatment for 10 minutes for later use. Under the protection of low-flow hydrogen, heating a chemical vapor deposition horizontal tubular furnace to 1200 ℃, then adjusting the hydrogen flow to 1800sccm, introducing 7sccm ethylene, and simultaneously injecting a mixed solution prepared from toluene, ferrocene and sulfur powder at a constant speed of 0.6ml/h to grow the carbon nano tube for 1 h.
And flatly paving the prepared product obtained in the step at the center of a constant-temperature area of a horizontal tube furnace with two open ends, then heating the horizontal tube furnace to 530 ℃ at the speed of 15 ℃/min, keeping the temperature for 2 hours, removing amorphous carbon and single-walled carbon nanotubes in the product through in-situ weak oxidation, and naturally cooling the sample to room temperature along with the furnace.
And characterizing the samples in a preparation state and after the weak oxidation treatment by using a scanning electron microscope and a transmission electron microscope. As shown in fig. 1, the scanning electron microscope characterization shows that the samples in the preparation state (fig. 1a) and after the weak oxidation treatment (fig. 1b) are very pure, and the surface of the carbon tube has no granular impurities. As shown in fig. 2, transmission electron microscopy characterization shows that the as-prepared sample (fig. 2a) is a mixture of single-walled and double-walled carbon nanotubes, and the number of the walls and the number of the carbon nanotubes are counted under the transmission electron microscopy, and the result shows that the number of the double-walled carbon nanotubes accounts for more than 65% of the total number of the carbon nanotubes; after the weak oxidation treatment (fig. 2b), the single-walled carbon nanotubes are greatly reduced, the double-walled carbon nanotubes account for more than 97% of the total number of the carbon nanotubes, and the double-walled carbon nanotubes have complete carbon layer structures before and after the weak oxidation treatment. As shown in fig. 3, the diameters of 100 double-walled carbon nanotubes are measured under a transmission electron microscope and a diameter distribution graph is drawn, the diameters of the double-walled carbon nanotubes are distributed in the range of 1.7 to 3.1 nanometers, wherein 88% of the diameters of the double-walled carbon nanotubes are distributed in the range of 1.8 to 2.3 nanometers in a concentrated manner, and the concentrated oxidation temperature of the double-walled carbon nanotubes is 805 ℃.
Thermogravimetric analysis is carried out on the samples after preparation state and weak oxidation treatment so as to represent crystallinity change and purity of the macro sample. As shown in fig. 4, the mass percent curve of the prepared carbon nanotube (fig. 4a) shows significant weight loss in two temperature ranges of 450-550 ℃ and 750-820 ℃, corresponding to the weight loss of the mass percent curve, and the DSC curve shows a plurality of discrete exothermic peaks corresponding to the oxidative decomposition reaction of the carbonaceous product. Wherein, the low-temperature (450-550 ℃) oxidative decomposition reaction is carried out by amorphous carbon with higher reaction activity and the small-diameter single-walled carbon nano-tube, and the high-temperature (750-820 ℃) oxidation decomposition reaction is carried out by the double-walled carbon nano-tube; the mass percent curve of the sample (figure 4b) after the weak oxidation treatment shows weight loss in the temperature range of 750-820 ℃, and a DSC curve shows an obvious exothermic peak around 805 ℃ corresponding to the weight loss of the mass percent curve, so that the high crystallinity and the structural uniformity of the double-wall carbon nano tube are shown corresponding to the decomposition reaction of the double-wall carbon nano tube. Comparing the thermogravimetric analysis results of the carbon nano tube after the preparation state and the weak oxidation treatment, the oxidative decomposition temperature of the double-wall carbon nano tube in the preparation state carbon nano tube has no obvious difference with the oxidative decomposition temperature of the double-wall carbon nano tube after the weak oxidation treatment, and the results show that the structural damage of the double-wall carbon nano tube caused by the weak oxidation treatment process is extremely small, which is consistent with the representation results of a transmission electron microscope. In addition, the impurity residues of the prepared carbon nanotube sample and the carbon nanotube sample after the weak oxidation treatment are respectively 4.5 wt% and 7 wt%, which indicates the high purity of the sample, and is consistent with the characterization result of a scanning electron microscope.
