Description

Graphene slurry, conductive ink and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of graphene materials, and particularly relates to graphene slurry, conductive ink and a preparation method of the conductive ink.
Background
With the rapid development of the electronic industry, the conductive ink is more and more widely applied in the fields of flexible printed circuits, membrane switches, radio frequency identification and the like. Compared with the traditional metal conductive ink and silver nano material conductive ink, the graphene conductive ink has higher stability and lower cost; compared with carbon-based conductive ink, the conductive ink has lower resistivity, i.e., better conductivity. The graphene serving as the conductive filler of the conductive ink has excellent conductivity, corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance, is one of the most popular and potential printing electronic materials, and has wide application prospects.
At present, two technical approaches are mainly adopted for preparing graphene conductive ink, one is graphene ink based on a liquid phase stripping method, and the other is graphene ink based on a redox method.
The liquid phase stripping method is to disperse graphite powder in solvents such as N-methyl pyrrolidone (NMP), dimethyl formamide (DMF) and the like to reduce van der Waals force between sheet layers, strip the graphite layer by layer in the solvents through external force action such as ultrasonic waves and the like, add a surfactant or a polymer to assist dispersion, and prepare the graphene conductive ink through solvent exchange and the like.
The redox method is to oxidize graphite in a strong acid and strong oxidant system, weaken the van der Waals acting force between the sheets, promote the graphite oxide to be stripped in a solvent to form graphene oxide, and then remove oxygen-containing groups through a reduction process to convert the graphene oxide into reduced graphene oxide. The dispersity of the reduced graphene oxide is reduced, and the graphene conductive ink is prepared by the aid of a surfactant or a polymer for assisting in dispersing. The dispersion of graphene oxide is also directly used as ink, but reduction treatment is required after printing to convert the printed circuit into a conductive circuit.
The yield of the graphene prepared by the liquid phase stripping method is low, a large amount of un-stripped graphite is left in the preparation process, and a repeated separation and purification process is needed; in addition, the graphene sheet layer is broken by using external forces such as ultrasound, so that graphene with smaller size is generally obtained, and the conductivity of the graphene is influenced; solvents such as NMP, DMF and the like used for stripping have strong toxicity and corrosiveness and are easy to cause harm to the environment and human health.
The method for directly using the dispersion liquid of the graphene oxide as the ink is relatively easy to prepare, stable in dispersion and wide in concentration range, but the conditions of the subsequent reduction or post-treatment process are harsh, and the common conditions such as hydrazine hydrate fumigation, hydroiodic acid fumigation, high-temperature heat treatment and the like have high tolerance requirements on a printing substrate, so that the application range of the method is limited. The conductive ink prepared by the pre-reduction method is poor in dispersibility, the concentration of graphene in the ink is low, and the conductive ink can be printed repeatedly or subjected to high-temperature heat treatment to achieve good conductivity. The pre-reduction and the post-printing reduction have the common problem that the reduction process cannot completely repair the structural defects of the graphene oxide and needs to be improved in the aspect of electrical properties.
Overall, the performance of the ink prepared from the graphene obtained by the above conventional method needs to be improved to meet the requirements of the application on ink stability, printability and printed circuit conductivity.

This comparative example is a comparative example of example 1, and the difference with respect to example 1 is mainly "(1) step 5 of preparing graphene slurry"), specifically including:
mixing 1.5g of the obtained commercial graphene powder, 30mL of dibasic ester and 100mL of ethanol, and homogenizing and dispersing at 8000rpm for 60 min; and adding the mixed solution into a rotary evaporator, and taking out after 30min to obtain graphene slurry of about 50 mg/mL.
As a result, the graphene slurry obtained by the preparation process of the comparative example directly influences the compounding process of the subsequent ink. The dispersion stability of the high-concentration and low-concentration ink is mainly influenced, phenomena of blocking a printing plate, a nozzle and the like are easily generated, and the good printing effect and the conductivity of a printing material applied by the ink are further influenced.
Comparative example 2
This comparative example is a comparative example of example 1, and the difference with respect to example 1 is mainly in the formulation of graphene slurry, and specifically, this comparative example employs N, N-Dimethylformamide (DMF) instead of dibasic ester as a host solvent.
As a result: the DMF adopted by the graphene paste of the comparative example is toxic and corrosive, and does not meet the preparation requirement of green environmental protection, so that the application range of the base material of the ink prepared by the graphene paste of the comparative example is much narrower than that of example 1, for example: in terms of substrate applicability, the printing of wearable electronic products cannot be used, and the printing can not be used for other substrates which are in contact with human bodies, such as fabrics, paper, partial plastics and the like. In addition, when DMF is used as a solvent to prepare the paste, the graphene concentration of the prepared paste is limited, and it is difficult to obtain a stably dispersed paste at a high concentration, resulting in poor printing quality in a printing process, and difficult to realize patterning and printing presentation of a high-resolution conductive circuit. When high-concentration ink is prepared, the line width of the screen printing plate is set to be 300 mu m, the printing line width is 600 mu m, the accurate control of the line width resolution is difficult to realize, the printing effect is discontinuous, the surface resistance is large and is about 2.889 kOmega/port, and the conductivity is poor.
The technical features of the embodiments described above may be arbitrarily combined, and for the sake of brevity, all possible combinations of the technical features in the embodiments described above are not described, but should be considered as being within the scope of the present specification as long as there is no contradiction between the combinations of the technical features.
The above-mentioned embodiments only express several embodiments of the present invention, and the description thereof is more specific and detailed, but not construed as limiting the scope of the invention. It should be noted that, for a person skilled in the art, several variations and modifications can be made without departing from the inventive concept, which falls within the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present patent shall be subject to the appended claims.
