Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of materials, and particularly relates to a method for preparing a porous material with a high specific surface area by utilizing coal or heavy organic matters through chemical crosslinking and physical activation and application.
Background
The porous carbon material has the advantages of high specific surface area, excellent physical and chemical stability, developed pore structure and the like, has wide and important application in the fields of adsorption, separation, catalysis, petrochemical industry, medical health and the like, becomes an essential important product in the production process of people's life and industry and agriculture, and is widely concerned in the industry.
Heretofore, methods for producing a porous carbon material mainly include an activation method and a template method. The template method is difficult to play a role in large-scale application due to the defects of long time consumption, complicated synthesis process, high cost and the like. Meanwhile, hydrofluoric acid or corrosive strong base is needed for removing the template, so that the environmental hazard is great. The activation method is the most common and mature technical route for preparing the porous carbon material at present, and is mainly divided into a chemical activation method and a physical activation method. The chemical activation method, especially the method adopting potassium hydroxide as an activating agent, has good pore-forming effect, and can etch a large number of micropores in a short time to obtain the porous carbon material with high specific surface area. Chinese patent CN108455604A discloses carboxyl asphalt-based porous carbon and a preparation method and application thereof, wherein carboxyl asphalt powder is mixed with KOH aqueous solution with the mass concentration of 20-40% and then is heated and activated in sections, and the specific surface area of the obtained porous carbon is 2249-3295 m2 g-1. Chinese patent CN102838105A discloses a preparation method of a hierarchical porous carbon material, which takes coal pitch as a carbon source, nano ferric oxide as a template and potassium hydroxide as an activating agent to prepare the hierarchical porous carbon material through high-temperature treatment, wherein the specific surface area is 1157-1330 m2 g-1The yield of the porous carbon is between 32.6 and 52.2 percent. Chinese patent CN101973542A discloses a preparation method of a porous carbon material for a supercapacitor, which takes petroleum coke or asphalt coke as a raw material and composite alkali metal hydroxide as an activating agent to prepare the porous carbon material by a two-stage activating process. The specific surface area of the porous carbon material obtained by the method is 1500-1800 m2 g-1The material used as the electrode material of the super capacitor has the characteristics of high capacity, high power, long cycle life and the like. However, these techniques for obtaining porous carbon having a high specific surface area use a large amount of potassium hydroxide, and require acid washing and water washing for post-treatment, which causes problems such as corrosion of equipment and environmental pollution. The physical activation method has simple process and can be clean and sustainable, but the conventional physical activation method has difficulty in obtaining the porous carbon material with high specific surface area. Therefore, research and development of a novel synthetic process route of a porous carbon material with simple and efficient structure, mild conditions, environmental friendliness, developed pore structure and high specific surface area is still an important subject to be researched urgently.
The porous polymer with high specific surface area and good chemical stability is widely applied in the fields of adsorption separation and the like. Among a plurality of functional porous polymers, the preparation of heat-resistant porous polymers is mainly prepared from high molecular polymers or block polymers such as epoxy resins, benzoxazine and the like; polyimide has very wide application in the aspects of insulating materials and heat-resistant film materials due to the unique performance of polyimide.
Chinese patent CN108794993A discloses a porous polymer material prepared by using epoxy resin, bismaleimide resin and polyphenyl ether as raw materials and utilizing different reaction capacities among different resin raw materials through diffusion pore-forming of unreacted resin in a reacted resin microgel aggregation process and pore-forming of resin curing shrinkage, wherein the porous polymer prepared by the patent can be used in the fields of insulation, heat insulation, controlled release, membrane adsorption separation, low dielectric property materials and the like when the temperature of 5 wt% of thermal weight loss is within the range of 250-295 ℃. Chinese patent CN110556496A discloses a high-safety composite diaphragm with high-temperature self-closing function, which is composed of a porous polyimide layer and a porous polymer coating, wherein the polyimide prepared by the patent is used as a base material, the heat-resistant temperature of the polyimide can reach 400 ℃, and the polyimide can be used for a lithium battery diaphragm. Chinese patent CN111533907A discloses a preparation method of heat-resistant polyimide molding powder containing benzimidazole structure, which is characterized in that diamine monomer containing benzimidazole structure and aromatic dianhydride monomer are firstly synthesized into polyamic acid with higher molecular weight in aprotic solvent, then catalyst and dehydrating agent are added into the polyamic acid, and then the polyamic acid is subjected to precipitation, washing and drying to obtain the heat-resistant polyimide molding powder containing benzimidazole structure, the temperature of 10% weight loss of the polyimide molding powder prepared by the patent is 590 ℃, the temperature of 20% weight loss is 630 ℃, and the carbon residue rate of 800 ℃ is 63%, thus indicating that the polyimide molding powder containing benzimidazole structure has excellent heat stability.
The coal-series heavy organic component has the advantages of wide source, low price, high carbon yield and the like, and the related research of preparing the porous carbon with high specific surface area and the heat-resistant porous polymer by taking the coal-series heavy organic component as the raw material through physical activation has important significance for the high added value utilization of the coal-series heavy organic matter.
