Abstract
Description
本発明は、ナノバイオセンサ、ナノエレクトロニクス・デバイス、電池、等々の分野で有益に使用されるであろう「ナノ精度のポリピロール超薄膜で均一に被覆されているカーボンナノチューブ」に関するものである。本発明は、また、このナノ精度のポリピロール超薄膜で均一に被覆されているカーボンナノチューブの製造方法にも関する。 The present invention relates to “carbon nanotubes uniformly coated with nano-precision polypyrrole ultrathin films” that may be beneficially used in the fields of nanobiosensors, nanoelectronic devices, batteries, and the like. The present invention also relates to a method for producing carbon nanotubes uniformly coated with the nano-precision polypyrrole ultrathin film.
カーボンナノチューブとポリマーに基づく複合材料は、これら複合材料を構成する各要素よりも優れた特性をもつ進化した機能性材料を創出すると期待される理由から、多くの興味が持たれてきた(M.J.Panhuis, 2006; C.Downs et al, 1999)。カーボンナノチューブ/ポリマー複合材料は、ポリマーの導電性を改善し、それらの強靭性を増強させ、あるいはバイオ分子を固定化するために調製されてきた(A.Merkoci et al, 2005)。支えなしに立つ個々の非導電性ポリマの鞘でコートされたカーボンナノチューブは、AFM絶縁チップとして(M.J.Esplandiu et al, 2004)、ナノ電極(J.K.Champbell et al, 1999)として、あるいはナノエレクトロニクス・デバイス用ナノワイヤ(A.Star et al, 2003; G.B.Blanchet et al, 2004)として用いられてきた。 Composite materials based on carbon nanotubes and polymers have received a lot of interest because they are expected to create advanced functional materials with properties superior to the components that make up these composite materials (MJPanhuis , 2006; C. Downs et al, 1999). Carbon nanotube / polymer composites have been prepared to improve the conductivity of polymers, enhance their toughness, or immobilize biomolecules (A.Merkoci et al, 2005). Carbon nanotubes coated with freestanding individual non-conductive polymer sheaths can be used as AFM insulating tips (MJEsplandiu et al, 2004), as nanoelectrodes (JKChampbell et al, 1999), or as nanoelectronic devices Nanowires (A. Star et al, 2003; GBBlanchet et al, 2004) have been used.
特に興味深いのは、ポリピロール、ポリアニリンあるいはポリチオフェンのような導電性機能を有するポリマーと複合させたカーボンナノチューブ(CNT)の性質である(M.J.Panhuis, 2006)。カーボンナノチューブを導電性ポリマーによって化学的又は電気化学的に被覆する研究は、いくつかのグループで検討されてきたけれども、支えなしに立つ個々のカーボンナノチューブをポリマーでナノサイズに精確に均一厚みに被覆することは、未だ達成されていない魅力的な課題として残されてきた。何故ならば、結合させるポリマーの凝集を制御することは容易ではなく、また、そのポリマー鎖は不規則的なナノ粒子又は沈殿物として堆積しやすいからである。カーボンナノチューブはしばしばポリピロールの凝集物に取り込まれることがあり(J.Wang et al, 2005)、あるいは、50nm(非特許文献1、2参照)から80nm(J.Fan et al, 1999; J.H.Chen et al, 2001; J.H.Chen et al, 2002)の厚み範囲の非均一のポリマー層で被覆されることがあり、また、ポリマー構造の中にしばしば一以上のカーボンナノチューブ(前記非特許文献2参照)が包み込まれることもあり、更には、径が約50nmのポリピロールナノ粒子で被覆されることもある(Y.Yu et al, 2005; T.-M. Wu et al, 2006)からである。
しかし、ナノ精度のポリピロール超薄膜で均一に被覆されているカーボンナノチューブを製造する方法は未だ知られていない。
Of particular interest is the nature of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) complexed with polymers with conductive function such as polypyrrole, polyaniline or polythiophene (MJPanhuis, 2006). Although studies of chemically or electrochemically coating carbon nanotubes with conducting polymers have been studied by several groups, individual carbon nanotubes that stand unsupported can be coated with a polymer to a nano-size precisely and uniformly in thickness. To do has been left as an attractive challenge that has not yet been achieved. This is because it is not easy to control the aggregation of the polymer to be bonded, and the polymer chains are likely to deposit as irregular nanoparticles or precipitates. Carbon nanotubes are often incorporated into polypyrrole aggregates (J. Wang et al, 2005), or 50 nm (see Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2) to 80 nm (J. Fan et al, 1999; JHChen et al , 2001; JHChen et al, 2002) and may be coated with a non-uniform polymer layer in the thickness range, and often contain one or more carbon nanotubes (see Non-Patent Document 2) in the polymer structure. In some cases, it may be coated with polypyrrole nanoparticles having a diameter of about 50 nm (Y. Yu et al, 2005; T.-M. Wu et al, 2006).
However, a method for producing carbon nanotubes uniformly coated with nano-precision polypyrrole ultrathin film is not yet known.
本発明の目的は、ナノ精度のポリピロール超薄膜で均一に被覆されているカーボンナノチューブを提供することであり、また、そのようなポリピロール層で被覆されているカーボンナノチューブの製造方法を提供することである。 An object of the present invention is to provide a carbon nanotube uniformly coated with a nano-precision polypyrrole ultrathin film, and also to provide a method for producing a carbon nanotube coated with such a polypyrrole layer. is there.

[Detailed description of the invention]
Next, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 shows a schematic view of uniformly coating a polypyrrole ultrathin film on a carbon nanotube.
The carbon nanotube used in this method is one of carbon allotypes. This has a form of a columnar molecule having a diameter of 2 nm to 100 nm, and is formed by rounding a graphite sheet. As the carbon nanotube, both single-walled carbon nanotubes and multi-walled carbon nanotubes can be used, but multi-walled carbon nanotubes are preferable.
“Functionalize” in step (i) of this method means introducing a carboxyl group into the graphite sheet outside the carbon nanotube.
“High temperature” in step (i) of this method means maintaining at a constant temperature in the range of 70 ° C. or 90 ° C. Further, the high temperature treatment is performed, for example, for 12 to 36 hours until the reaction is completed.
The “predetermined concentration of CNTox” in step (ii) of this method means a concentration of 0.1 to 1.0 mg / mL.
“Predetermined pyrrole concentration” in step (iii) of this method means that pyrrole is maintained at a constant concentration between 5 mM and 25 mM (although this concentration depends on the required thickness of the final polypyrrole coating). .
<Others>
The reason for using 2-propanol is to keep the precursor pyrrole solution stable. The reason for using persulfate is that persulfate initiates radical polymerization of pyrrole.
本発明によれば、ナノ精度のポリピロール超薄膜で均一に被覆されているカーボンナノチューブを得ることができる。
ここで、「ナノ精度のポリピロール超薄膜で均一に」とは、通常、5nmないしは20nm(好ましくは7nmないしは14nmであり、これはピロールモノマーの厚みが0.43nmであることを考慮すると、16分子ないしは32分子に相当するピロールモノマーが積み重なった厚み)の範囲の中の所定厚み(これはピロール前駆体の濃度に依存するが)でその偏差が1nm以下、又は変動係数が20%以下(好ましくは16%以下、更に好ましくは11%以下)の連続的なポリピロール層を意味する。
According to the present invention, it is possible to obtain carbon nanotubes uniformly coated with nano-precision polypyrrole ultrathin films.
Here, “uniformly with nano-precision polypyrrole ultrathin film” usually means 5 nm to 20 nm (preferably 7 nm to 14 nm, which is 16 molecules considering the thickness of the pyrrole monomer is 0.43 nm. Or a predetermined thickness within the range of pyrrole monomers corresponding to 32 molecules (which depends on the concentration of the pyrrole precursor), the deviation is 1 nm or less, or the variation coefficient is 20% or less (preferably 16% or less, more preferably 11% or less) means a continuous polypyrrole layer.
実施例1 ナノ精度のポリピロール超薄膜で均一に被覆されているカーボンナノチューブの調製
(1)調製方法
コーティング:多層カーボンナノチューブは、濃硝酸(6M)中、80℃で、24h処理し、機能化した。引き続いて、酸/多層CNT混合物は蒸留水で洗浄し、水溶液が中性pHとなるまで数回、遠沈した。引き続き、カルボキシル基含有の機能化された多層カーボンナノチューブ(MWCNTox)を孔径0.2μmのメンブランフィルター(Nuclepore Track-Etch Membrane, Whatman, UK)に掛け、室温で乾燥させた。ポリピロールを被覆する工程では、MWCNToxを蒸留水中に0.5mg/mLの濃度となるように分散させ(典型的には、MWCNToxの2gを蒸留水4mLに分散させ)、つづいて超音波処理を5分間行なった。引き続いて、ピロールの2−プロパノール溶液を加えピロール最終濃度を所定濃度(典型的には10mMで、2−プロパノールに溶かした451mMピロール保存溶液を100μL加えることが必要。)とし、更に過硫酸アンモニウム(典型的には、10mM過硫酸アンモニウム保存水溶液410μL)を加えた。この混合物を、マグネチックスターラ(550rpm)を用いて24hかき混ぜ、最後に、孔径0.2μmのNucleporeメンブランフィルターに掛け、蒸留水で洗い、室温で乾燥した。
Example 1 Preparation of carbon nanotubes uniformly coated with nano-precision polypyrrole ultrathin film (1) Preparation method Coating: Multi-walled carbon nanotubes were treated in concentrated nitric acid (6M) at 80 ° C. for 24 h to be functionalized . Subsequently, the acid / multilayer CNT mixture was washed with distilled water and spun down several times until the aqueous solution had a neutral pH. Subsequently, the functionalized multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTox) containing carboxyl groups were passed through a membrane filter (Nuclepore Track-Etch Membrane, Whatman, UK) having a pore size of 0.2 μm and dried at room temperature. In the step of coating polypyrrole, MWCNTox is dispersed in distilled water to a concentration of 0.5 mg / mL (typically 2 g of MWCNTox is dispersed in 4 mL of distilled water), followed by ultrasonic treatment. For a minute. Subsequently, a 2-propanol solution of pyrrole is added to give a final pyrrole concentration (typically 10 mM, and it is necessary to add 100 μL of a 451 mM pyrrole stock solution dissolved in 2-propanol), and ammonium persulfate (typically Specifically, 10 mM ammonium persulfate stock aqueous solution 410 μL) was added. This mixture was stirred for 24 h using a magnetic stirrer (550 rpm), finally passed through a Nuclepore membrane filter with a pore size of 0.2 μm, washed with distilled water, and dried at room temperature.

(2) Characteristic evaluation The carbon nanotubes uniformly coated with the obtained nano-precision polypyrrole ultrathin film are obtained by the following methods: transmission electron microscope, scanning electron microscope, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Characterization was performed using electron energy loss spectroscopy and electrochemistry.
(a)電子エネルギー損失分光法及びエレクトロケミストリー
PPy/MWCNTの各々の元素組成は、電子エネルギー損失スペクトロスコピー(EELS)によって分析した。π*(283.8eV)及びσ*(295.5eV)ピークが、C−K殻イオニゼーション・エッジの近くではっきりと見られた。π*ピークは、炭素原子がsp2ハイブリダイズドであり、そのカーボンチューブが主として六角形のグラファイト層から成ることを示している。我々はまた、401eVでのイオニゼーション・エッジを観察したが、これはポリピロール被覆に存在する窒素原子に特徴的なKエッジに対応するものである。
(A) Electron energy loss spectroscopy and electrochemistry
The elemental composition of each PPy / MWCNT was analyzed by electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS). The π * (283.8 eV) and σ * (295.5 eV) peaks were clearly seen near the CK shell ionization edge. The π * peak indicates that the carbon atom is sp 2 hybridized and that the carbon tube consists mainly of a hexagonal graphite layer. We also observed an ionization edge at 401 eV, which corresponds to the K edge characteristic of nitrogen atoms present in the polypyrrole coating.
(b)X線光電子分光法
サンプル全体についてMWCNTのポリピロール被覆の存在を確かめ、その定量を行なうために、PPy/MWCNT及び(機能化)MWCNToxについてX線光電子分光法(XPS)測定を行なった。被覆されたPPy/MWCNT及び(機能化)MWCNToxについての広範なXPSスキャンに基づくX線光電子スペクトルの積分による元素分析は、炭素が94.6%、窒素が5.4%であることを示している。
(B) X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements were performed on PPy / MWCNT and (functionalized) MWCNTox to confirm the presence of MWCNT polypyrrole coating on the entire sample and to quantify it. Elemental analysis by integration of X-ray photoelectron spectra based on extensive XPS scans for coated PPy / MWCNT and (functionalized) MWCNTox shows 94.6% carbon and 5.4% nitrogen Yes.
(c)ラーマン分光法
被覆されたポリピロールの存在を更に確認するために、ナノ被覆PPy/MWCNTについての約1350cm−1付近の幅広いピークのラーマン・スペクトルを示すが、これはポリピロール環の1330cm−1及び1370cm−1の伸縮を反映しているものである。
(C) Raman spectroscopy To further confirm the presence of the coated polypyrrole, a broad peak Raman spectrum around 1350 cm −1 for nanocoated PPy / MWCNT is shown, which is 1330 cm −1 of the polypyrrole ring. And 1370 cm −1 of the expansion and contraction.
(d)透過型電子顕微鏡
ピロール前駆体の濃度が10mMであったときに、形成されたポリピロール層は均一厚み7.4nm(厚みの変動係数は11%)であり、サンプル中に観察されたMWCNTは全てポリピロール超薄膜の鞘で覆われていた。図2は、均一厚みのポリピロール超薄膜で被覆されたカーボンナノチューブのTEM写真である。
(D) Transmission electron microscope When the concentration of the pyrrole precursor was 10 mM, the formed polypyrrole layer had a uniform thickness of 7.4 nm (thickness variation coefficient of 11%), and the MWCNT observed in the sample All were covered with an ultra-thin polypyrrole sheath. FIG. 2 is a TEM photograph of carbon nanotubes coated with an ultrathin polypyrrole film having a uniform thickness.
(e)エレクトロケミストリー
PPy/MWCNTナノワイヤの電気化学的挙動を観察するために、PPy/MWCNT及び(機能化)MWCNToxの膜電極についてのサイクリック・ボルタモグラムを1M塩化ナトリウム中で記録した。PPy/MWCNTナノワイヤで改変した電極の電気化学的挙動は、(機能化)MWCNToxで被覆した電極の挙動とは著しく異なっている。PPy/MWCNTナノワイヤ膜のボルタモグラムは、ポリピロール超薄膜で被覆されたMWCNTへのCl−取込みと組み合わさって、+8mVの電位で鋭い酸化ピークを示している(機能化MWCNTox膜は、このような応答がないことに注意)。酸化に対するこの鋭い応答は、MWCNTのポリピロール超薄膜の被覆において迅速かつよく分かった物質移動に帰することができる。MWCNTのポリピロール被覆に関し更に情報を得るために、我々はMWCNTox及びPPy/MWCNTナノワイヤで改変した電極のキャパシタンスを計算した。これは、+0.40V(銀/塩化銀電極に対し)の電圧で記録された電流を、50mMリン酸緩衝液(pHが7.4;スキャン範囲が毎秒約200mV〜1100mV)中におけるサイクリック・ボルタメトリー実験のあいだに、スキャン速度を変化(毎秒25mV〜200mVの範囲)させ、その結果をプロットすることで測定した。これらのプロットはいずれの場合も直線的であり、そのことは基準電流は静電容量の充電/放電の電流に直接的に呼応していることを示している。機能化MWCNTox及びPPy/MWCNT膜の表面特異的キャパシタンスは、各々、1.92μFmm−2及び1.53μFmm−2(一方、むき出しGC電極のキャパシタンスは1.31μFmm−2であった)であり、これは1M塩化ナトリウム溶液における機能化MWCNT及びPPy/MWCNT膜のボルタメトリック挙動と整合している。
(E) Electrochemistry
To observe the electrochemical behavior of PPy / MWCNT nanowires, cyclic voltammograms for PPy / MWCNT and (functionalized) MWCNTox membrane electrodes were recorded in 1M sodium chloride. The electrochemical behavior of electrodes modified with PPy / MWCNT nanowires is significantly different from that of electrodes functionalized with (functionalized) MWCNTox. The voltammograms of PPy / MWCNT nanowire films show a sharp oxidation peak at a potential of +8 mV combined with Cl - uptake into MWCNTs coated with ultrathin polypyrrole films (functionalized MWCNTox films exhibit such a response. Note that there is no). This sharp response to oxidation can be attributed to rapid and well-known mass transfer in the coating of MWCNT polypyrrole ultrathin films. To obtain more information about the polypyrrole coating of MWCNT, we calculated the capacitance of the electrode modified with MWCNTox and PPy / MWCNT nanowires. This is because the current recorded at a voltage of +0.40 V (relative to the silver / silver chloride electrode) is cyclically measured in a 50 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.4; scan range about 200 mV to 1100 mV per second). During the voltammetry experiment, the scan speed was varied (range 25 mV to 200 mV per second) and the results were plotted. These plots are linear in each case, which indicates that the reference current is directly responsive to the capacitance charge / discharge current. The surface specific capacitances of the functionalized MWCNTox and PPy / MWCNT films are 1.92 μFmm −2 and 1.53 μFmm −2 (while the capacitance of the bare GC electrode was 1.31 μFmm −2 ), respectively. Is consistent with the voltammetric behavior of functionalized MWCNT and PPy / MWCNT films in 1M sodium chloride solution.
次に、我々はPPy/MWCNTナノワイヤの電気化学的性状に及ぼすポリピロールのナノ被覆の影響を検討した。フェリシアナイドが機能化MWCNToxに対してもPPy/MWCNTナノワイヤ膜に対しても可逆的応答を示した一方で、PPy/MWCNTナノワイヤ膜では、より鋭いピーク及びより低いΔEpが観察された(ΔEpはPPy/MWCNTナノワイヤ膜で464mV、機能化MWCNTox膜で502mV)。NADHに対するサイクリック・ボルタメトリック実験によれば、機能化MWCNTox膜に比べPPy/MWCNTナノワイヤ膜のほうが、このNADH分子の酸化に対する電気化学的反応性が改善されることを示している(酸化ピーク電位は、各々、684mV及び710mVであり、酸化ピーク電流は、各々、29.1μA及び26.5μAである)。過酸化水素に対するサイクリック・ボルタメトリック応答によれば、機能化MWCNToxでは過酸化水素の酸化が+650mVで開始するが、一方、PPy/MWCNTでは過酸化水素の酸化がこれよりも低い+500mVで開始することを示している。これらの結果は、ポリピロールナノ被覆MWCNTは、裸の機能化MWCNToxに比べて改善された電気化学的性状を有することを示すものである。したがって、今後、このナノ構造のポリピロール層被覆MWCNTは電気化学的センサー等として、非常に有望な特徴を有する材料となるであろう。 Next, we investigated the effect of polypyrrole nano-coating on the electrochemical properties of PPy / MWCNT nanowires. While ferricyanide showed a reversible response to both functionalized MWCNTox and PPy / MWCNT nanowire films, sharper peaks and lower ΔEp were observed in PPy / MWCNT nanowire films (ΔEp is 464 mV for PPy / MWCNT nanowire membranes and 502 mV for functionalized MWCNTox membranes). Cyclic voltammetric experiments on NADH show that the PPy / MWCNT nanowire film has improved electrochemical reactivity to oxidation of this NADH molecule compared to the functionalized MWCNTox film (oxidation peak potential). Are 684 mV and 710 mV, respectively, and the oxidation peak currents are 29.1 μA and 26.5 μA, respectively). According to the cyclic voltammetric response to hydrogen peroxide, functionalized MWCNTox begins to oxidize hydrogen peroxide at +650 mV, whereas PPy / MWCNT begins to oxidize hydrogen peroxide at +500 mV, which is lower than this. It is shown that. These results indicate that polypyrrole nanocoated MWCNTs have improved electrochemical properties compared to bare functionalized MWCNTox. Therefore, in the future, this nano-structured polypyrrole layer-coated MWCNT will be a material having very promising characteristics as an electrochemical sensor or the like.
