Description

Carbon material having a defect and a method of manufacturing the same {DEFECTIVE CARBON MATERIALS AND FABRICATION METHOD THEROF}

The present invention relates to a carbon material, and more particularly, to a technique for introducing a defect into a carbon material to increase the specific surface area and to activate the surface thereof.

Carbon materials such as graphite, graphene, and carbon nanotubes, due to their excellent mechanical and chemical properties, are found in many areas of the industry such as fuel cells, lithium ion batteries, semiconductors, gas sensors, and catalysts. It is a substance used throughout.

The excellent mechanical properties of the carbon materials listed above are due to the properties of the surface with little defects. Thus, the surface of the materials is physicochemically inactive unless otherwise treated. This is an obstacle to the above listed materials when applied to industrial applications, and in order to solve this problem, heat treatment for heating the materials to a high temperature in a gas atmosphere of oxygen, ozone and carbon dioxide, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, hydrochloric acid or their Methods such as acid treatment are used to boil mixed acids to activate the surface of the material. However, the treatment method activates the surface and increases the specific surface area, but the inherent crystallinity of the tango materials deteriorates after treatment, which limits the inherent strength.

The result of overcoming this limitation is Pub. No .: US 2011/0206932 A1, which is a technique in which a metal oxide is formed on the surface of a carbon nanotube and heated to remove some of the carbon in the carbon nanotube, thereby introducing only a part of defects while maintaining inherent crystallinity. As a result, the specific surface area is increased and the surface is activated. However, this technology is limited to carbon nanotubes, and in order to introduce defects, it is necessary to form metal oxides on the surface of carbon nanotubes. This process is expensive because of the high temperature and inert gas atmosphere, and due to the long process technology, it takes a long time to produce. In addition, the embodiment includes a pretreatment process for purifying with an acid before forming a metal oxide on the surface of the carbon nanotubes, which has technical problems in terms of cost and stability of operation.

end. Contacting a carbon-containing compound with a metal

The process of contacting the carbon material and the compound containing the metal may be variously modified depending on the carbon material and its application purpose.

1) Contact method by solution mixing

The method consists of the following three steps, and is a method of roughly dissolving a compound containing a metal in a solvent and then contacting the metal compound and the carbon material by adding a carbon material to the solution. At this time, the solvent may be selected in various ways depending on the characteristics of the compound containing a metal (for example, ethanol, methanol-based alcohol and organic solvent, water, acid solution and base solution, etc.), It is not limited to either solvent.

a) preparing a compound solution containing a metal

The compound containing the metal is dissolved in a suitable solution to dissolve the compound in the solution. At this time, the weight ratio of the metal compound to be used is suitably 0.1 to 90% by weight of the carbon material to be used. The use of small amounts of metal compounds of less than 0.1% by weight can create very small defects (small holes) in the carbon material, but it is very time consuming, while using a large amount of metal compounds of more than 90% by weight, 0.1 to 90% by weight is suitable because there is a problem of creating a too large defect (in the form of a large hole) in a short time.

In addition, the compound containing the metal is not limited to any particular form. Typical examples of cobalt include cobalt tetrahydrate (Co (CH 3 COO) 2 4H 2 O), cobalt carbonate (CoCO 3 ), cobalt chloride (CoCl 2 ), and cobalt nitrate (Co (NO 3). ) 2 ), cobalt hexahydrate (Co (NO 3 ) 2 · 6H 2 O), cobalt sulfate (CoSO 4 ), and when nickel is used, nickel hexahydrate (Ni (NO 3 ) 2 ·) 6H 2 O), hexavalent nickel sulfate (Ni (SO 4 ) 2 · 6H 2 O), nickel carbonate (NiCO 3 ), hexavalent nickel chloride (NiCl 2 · 6H 2 O), tetrahydrate nickel acetate (Ni (CH 3 COO) 2 .4H 2 O), and when copper is used, copper acetate, copper carbonate (Cu 2 (OH) 2 CO 3 ), copper chloride (CuCl 2 ), copper hydroxide (Cu ( OH) 2 ), copper nitrate (Cu (NO 3 ) 2 ), copper sulphate, and when iron is used, ferric nitrate hexahydrate (Fe (NO 3 ) 3 · 9H 2 O), ferrous sulfate (FeSO 4 ), and the like, and the compound containing a metal used in the present invention is not limited to the exemplary compounds listed above.

The transfer process may vary depending on the carbon material and the application purpose, and is preferably transferred using a tape. At this time, the type of substrate is determined according to the application purpose and is not limited to any one type. Preferably a silicon substrate or a glass substrate can be used.

b) dropping solution

After preparing a solution containing a metal compound in the same manner as above, the solution is dropped on the carbon material transferred to the substrate, and the solution is dried. At this time, the drying temperature is preferably 20-100 ℃.

3) Contact method by grinding mixing

This method is a method of contacting a compound containing a carbon material and a metal by mixing the carbon material and a compound containing a metal, and then pulverizing the two materials. The grinding method may vary, and preferably grinding by hand using a mortar and pestle.

I. Defect introduction process

All. Purification Process

This step is a step for obtaining a pure carbon material having a defect, and is a step for obtaining a pure carbon material having a defect by removing impurities from the carbon material obtained in the above step using a solution of an acid or acid diluted with water. This process may not be performed depending on the end application.
