본 발명은 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간에 이산화티타늄 나노입자가 고정화된 광촉매 소재 및 그 제조방법에 관한 것으로서, 보다 상세하게는 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간에 이산화티타늄 나노입자를 고정화시킴으로써 이산화티타늄의 광촉매 특성을 발현함과 함께 탄소나노튜브의 제반 특성을 활용하고, 이산화티타늄 나노입자의 탈락을 억제시켜 광촉매 소재의 내구성을 향상시킬 수 있는 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간에 이산화티타늄 나노입자가 고정화된 광촉매 소재 및 그 제조방법에 관한 것이다. The present invention relates to a photocatalytic material in which titanium dioxide nanoparticles are immobilized in an interior space of a carbon nanotube, and more particularly, to a photocatalytic property of titanium dioxide by immobilizing titanium dioxide nanoparticles in an interior space of a carbon nanotube. A photocatalyst material in which titanium dioxide nanoparticles are immobilized in an interior space of a carbon nanotube that can improve the durability of the photocatalytic material by utilizing the properties of carbon nanotubes and suppressing the fall of titanium dioxide nanoparticles. It relates to a manufacturing method.

자외선 조사 하에 초과산화물(O2·-), 수산화래디컬(·OH) 등의 다양한 활성산소를 발생시키는 이산화티타늄(TiO2)의 광촉매 특성은 수처리 기술에 널리 이용되고 있다. 이산화티타늄의 광촉매 반응에 의해 생성되는 활성산소를 통해 수계에 존재하는 악취물질, 바이러스, 박테리아 등의 미생물 및 휘발성유기화합물(VOCs)을 효과적으로 제거할 수 있다. Photocatalytic properties of titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ), which generate various active oxygen such as superoxide (O 2 · - ) and radical radical (· OH) under ultraviolet irradiation, are widely used in water treatment technology. Microorganisms and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as malodorous substances, viruses, bacteria, and the like, which are present in the water system, can be effectively removed through active oxygen generated by the photocatalytic reaction of titanium dioxide.

이와 같은 이산화티타늄의 광촉매 특성을 수처리 공정에 이용하기 위해서는 이산화티타늄이 담체에 고정될 필요가 있다. 이산화티타늄을 분말 형태로 그대로 수처리 공정에 이용하게 되면 별도의 분리막을 통해 이산화티타늄 입자를 회수해야 하는 문제점이 있기 때문이다. In order to use such photocatalytic properties of titanium dioxide in a water treatment process, titanium dioxide needs to be fixed to a carrier. This is because when titanium dioxide is used as a powder in a water treatment process, titanium dioxide particles must be recovered through a separate separator.

이산화티타늄 입자가 고정화되는 담체로 기판을 고려할 수 있다. 기판에 이산화티타늄 입자를 고정화시키는 경우 상대적으로 적은 양의 이산화티타늄이 소요되고 재사용이 가능하다는 장점이 있다. 이산화티타늄 입자를 기판에 고정시키는 기술로 한국등록특허 제0503233호 '광촉매 박막의 제조 방법 및 이를 이용한 수처리 장치', 한국등록특허 제0643096호 '폴리카보네이트 멤브레인을 이용한 이산화티타늄 나노구조체 제조 방법 및 이에 의해 제조된 광촉매용 이산화티타늄 나노구조체', 한국등록특허 제0886906호 '나노 다공성 광촉매 티타니아 표면을 구비한 티타늄 분리막의 제조 방법' 등이 있다. The substrate can be considered as a carrier on which titanium dioxide particles are immobilized. When the titanium dioxide particles are immobilized on the substrate, a relatively small amount of titanium dioxide is consumed and can be reused. As a technology for fixing titanium dioxide particles to a substrate, Korean Patent Registration No. 0503233 'Method for manufacturing photocatalytic thin film and water treatment device using it', Korean Patent Registration No. 0643096 'Method for producing titanium dioxide nanostructure using polycarbonate membrane and thereby Manufactured titanium dioxide nanostructures for photocatalysts', Korean Patent Registration No. 0886906, 'Method for manufacturing titanium separator having nanoporous photocatalyst titania surface', and the like.

본 발명은 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간에 이산화티타늄 나노입자를 고정화시키는 기술을 제시한다. The present invention proposes a technique for immobilizing titanium dioxide nanoparticles in the inner space of a carbon nanotube.

탄소나노튜브(carbon nanotube, CNT)는 전기전도도, 비표면적, 수소저장능력 및 물리적, 화학적 내구성이 우수하여 다양한 분야에 응용된다. 탄소나노튜브는 흑연면(graphite sheet)이 벽(wall) 형태로 나노 크기의 직경으로 둥글게 말린 것을 일컬으며, 탄소나노튜브를 구성하는 벽(wall)의 결합수에 따라 단일벽 탄소나노튜브(single-walled CNT), 이중벽 탄소나노튜브(double-walled CNT), 탄소나노튜브(multi-walled CNT)로 구분된다(도 13 참조). Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have excellent electrical conductivity, specific surface area, hydrogen storage capacity, and physical and chemical durability, and are thus applied to various fields. Carbon nanotube refers to a graphite sheet rolled into a nano-scale diameter in the form of a wall, and a single-walled carbon nanotube (single) according to the number of bonds of the walls constituting the carbon nanotube. -walled CNT), double-walled carbon nanotubes (double-walled CNT), carbon nanotubes (multi-walled CNT) is divided into (see Figure 13).

본 발명에서 탄소나노튜브라 함은 단일벽 탄소나노튜브, 이중벽 탄소나노튜브, 탄소나노튜브 중 어느 하나를 의미하며, 탄소나노튜브를 구성하는 벽(wall)의 빈 공간을 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간이라 칭하기로 한다. In the present invention, the carbon nanotube means any one of a single-walled carbon nanotube, a double-walled carbon nanotube, and a carbon nanotube, and an empty space of a wall constituting the carbon nanotube is an internal space of the carbon nanotube. We will call this.

탄소나노튜브에 이산화티타늄 나노입자가 결합됨에 따라 이산화티타늄의 광촉매 특성 뿐만 아니라 우수한 전기전도도, 비표면적, 수소저장능력, 내구성 등의 탄소나노튜브의 고유 특성을 활용할 수 있으며, 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간에 이산화티타늄 나노입자를 고정화시킴으로써 이산화티타늄 나노입자가 탈착되는 것을 최소화할 수 있어 광촉매 소재의 내구연한을 증가시킬 수 있다. As titanium dioxide nanoparticles are combined with carbon nanotubes, it is possible to take advantage of the unique properties of carbon nanotubes such as excellent electrical conductivity, specific surface area, hydrogen storage capacity, and durability, as well as photocatalytic properties of titanium dioxide, and the internal space of carbon nanotubes. By immobilizing the titanium dioxide nanoparticles on to minimize the desorption of the titanium dioxide nanoparticles can increase the durability of the photocatalytic material.

탄소나노튜브의 내부공간에 이산화티타늄 나노입자를 고정화시키기 위해서는 내부공간 주변의 탄소나노튜브와 이산화티타늄 전구체의 결합효율이 높아야 되며, 이산화티타늄 전구체의 결합효율이 증가되기 위해서는 소수성(hydrophobic)인 탄소나노튜브의 표면을 친수성(hydrophilic)으로 개질할 필요가 있다. 탄소나노튜브의 표면에 친수성 기능기를 형성시킴으로써 탄소나노튜브의 표면을 친수성으로 변환시킬 수 있다. In order to immobilize the titanium dioxide nanoparticles in the inner space of the carbon nanotubes, the binding efficiency of the carbon nanotubes around the inner space and the titanium dioxide precursor must be high, and to increase the binding efficiency of the titanium dioxide precursor, the hydrophobic carbon nanoparticles The surface of the tube needs to be modified hydrophilicly. By forming a hydrophilic functional group on the surface of the carbon nanotube, the surface of the carbon nanotube can be converted to hydrophilicity.

본 발명은 탄소나노튜브의 표면 및 내부공간에 이산화티타늄 전구체와 결합되는 친수성 기능기를 고르게 구비시키고, 친수성 기능기와 이산화티타늄 전구체가 결합된 상태에서 열가수분해를 실시하여 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간에 이산화티타늄 나노입자가 고정화되는 기술을 제시한다. The present invention evenly equips the surface and interior space of the carbon nanotube with a hydrophilic functional group that is combined with a titanium dioxide precursor, and performs hydrolysis in a state in which the hydrophilic functional group and the titanium dioxide precursor are combined to discretize the interior space of the carbon nanotube. A technique for immobilizing titanium nanoparticles is proposed.

이하, 도면을 참조하여 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간에 이산화티타늄 나노입자가 고정화된 광촉매 소재 및 그 제조방법을 상세히 설명하기로 한다. Hereinafter, a photocatalytic material in which titanium dioxide nanoparticles are immobilized in an inner space of a carbon nanotube according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the drawings and a method of manufacturing the same will be described in detail.

먼저, 도 1에 도시한 바와 같이 탄소나노튜브를 준비한다(S101). 상기 탄소나노튜브는 단일벽 탄소나노튜브(single-walled CNT), 이중벽 탄소나노튜브(double-walled CNT), 탄소나노튜브(multi-walled CNT) 중 어느 하나이다. 또한, 탄소나노튜브를 구성하는 벽(wall)의 빈 공간은 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간(internal space)로 명명되며, 후술하는 제조공정을 통해 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간에 이산화티타늄 나노입자가 고정화된다. First, as shown in FIG. 1, a carbon nanotube is prepared (S101). The carbon nanotube is any one of a single-walled CNT, a double-walled CNT, and a multi-walled CNT. In addition, the empty space of the wall constituting the carbon nanotube is referred to as an internal space of the carbon nanotube, and titanium dioxide nanoparticles are immobilized in the internal space of the carbon nanotube through a manufacturing process described below. .

탄소나노튜브가 준비된 상태에서, 비결정질 탄소를 포함한 불순물을 제거함과 함께 탄소나노튜브의 표면에 친수성 기능기를 형성시키는 탄소나노튜브 전처리 공정을 실시한다(S103). 상기 친수성 기능기는 이산화티타늄 전구체와의 화학적 결합을 유도하는 것으로서, 하이드록시기(-OH), 카르복시기(-COOH), 에폭시기 중 어느 하나 또는 이들의 조합인 것을 의미한다. 또한, 상기 친수성 기능기는 탄소나노튜브의 겉보기 표면 뿐만 아니라 내부공간 주변의 탄소나노튜브의 표면 상에 형성되며, 이에 따라 내부공간 주변이 친수성으로 변환되어 이산화티타늄 전구체와 탄소나노튜브의 결합력을 상승시키며, 궁극적으로 이산화티타늄 전구체의 소성을 통해 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간에 이산화티타늄 나노입자를 생성시킬 수 있다. In the state where the carbon nanotube is prepared, a carbon nanotube pretreatment process is performed to remove impurities including amorphous carbon and to form hydrophilic functional groups on the surface of the carbon nanotube (S103). The hydrophilic functional group is to induce a chemical bond with the titanium dioxide precursor, and means that it is any one of a hydroxyl group (-OH), a carboxy group (-COOH), an epoxy group, or a combination thereof. In addition, the hydrophilic functional group is formed on the surface of the carbon nanotubes around the inner space as well as the apparent surface of the carbon nanotubes, whereby the inner space surroundings are converted to hydrophilicity, thereby increasing the binding force between the titanium dioxide precursor and the carbon nanotubes. , Ultimately, through the firing of the titanium dioxide precursor, titanium dioxide nanoparticles can be generated in the inner space of the carbon nanotube.

비결정질 탄소를 포함한 불순물의 제거를 위해 먼저, 탄소나노튜브를 산소 분위기의 400℃ 이상의 온도에서 열처리한다. 상기 열처리를 통해 탄소나노튜브에 존재하는 비결정질 탄소가 제거된다. 이어, 열처리된 탄소나노튜브를 염산에 침지시켜 탄소나노튜브 제조시 사용된 잔존 금속을 제거한다. 상기 열처리 및 염산처리를 통해 비결정질 탄소 및 잔존 금속이 제거됨과 함께 탄소나노튜브의 비표면적이 증가된다. 여기서, 염산처리시 염산은 60℃의 온도로 유지시키고 24시간 동안 진행할 수 있다. 상기 열처리 및 염산처리 후 증류수 세척 및 건조과정을 실시할 수 있다. In order to remove impurities including amorphous carbon, carbon nanotubes are first heat-treated at a temperature of 400 ° C. or higher in an oxygen atmosphere. Amorphous carbon present in the carbon nanotube is removed through the heat treatment. Subsequently, the heat-treated carbon nanotubes are immersed in hydrochloric acid to remove residual metal used in the production of the carbon nanotubes. The amorphous carbon and residual metal are removed through the heat treatment and hydrochloric acid treatment, and the specific surface area of the carbon nanotube is increased. Here, during hydrochloric acid treatment, hydrochloric acid may be maintained at a temperature of 60 ° C. and proceed for 24 hours. After the heat treatment and hydrochloric acid treatment, distilled water washing and drying may be performed.

상기 열처리 및 염산처리가 완료된 상태에서, 질산과 황산의 혼합용액을 준비하고, 상기 질산과 황산의 혼합용액에 탄소나노튜브를 침지시킨다. 이에 따라, 탄소나노튜브의 표면에 하이드록시기(-OH), 카르복시기(-COOH), 에폭시기 중 어느 하나 또는 이들의 조합이 형성되며, 이에 따라 탄소나노튜브의 표면은 소수성에서 친수성으로 변환된다. 내부공간 주변을 포함한 탄소나노튜브의 제반 표면에 구비된 친수성 기능기 즉, 하이드록시기(-OH), 카르복시기(-COOH), 에폭시기 중 어느 하나 또는 이들의 조합은 후술하는 이산화티타늄 전구체와의 결합을 유도한다. 여기서, 상기 질산과 황산의 혼합용액은 질산과 황산을 1 : 3의 부피비로 혼합하여 준비할 수 있으며, 탄소나노튜브의 표면에 친수성 기능기가 충분히 부착되도록 혼합용액의 온도를 80℃로 유지시키고 4시간 정도 교반시킬 수 있다. 질산과 황산의 혼합용액을 이용한 친수성 기능기 생성 유도 후, 증류수 세척 및 건조과정을 실시할 수 있다. In the state in which the heat treatment and hydrochloric acid treatment are completed, a mixed solution of nitric acid and sulfuric acid is prepared, and carbon nanotubes are immersed in the mixed solution of nitric acid and sulfuric acid. Accordingly, any one or a combination of hydroxy group (-OH), carboxy group (-COOH), and epoxy group is formed on the surface of the carbon nanotube, and accordingly, the surface of the carbon nanotube is converted from hydrophobic to hydrophilic. Hydrophilic functional groups provided on various surfaces of the carbon nanotubes including the surroundings of the inner space, that is, hydroxy group (-OH), carboxy group (-COOH), any one of the epoxy groups, or a combination thereof, with a titanium dioxide precursor described later Induces Here, the mixed solution of nitric acid and sulfuric acid can be prepared by mixing nitric acid and sulfuric acid in a volume ratio of 1: 3, and the temperature of the mixed solution is maintained at 80 ° C. so that hydrophilic functional groups are sufficiently attached to the surface of the carbon nanotubes. It can be stirred for an hour. After induction of hydrophilic functional groups using a mixed solution of nitric acid and sulfuric acid, distilled water washing and drying may be performed.

탄소나노튜브의 친수성 기능기 형성을 통해 탄소나노튜브의 표면을 친수성으로 개질한 상태에서, 이산화티타늄 전구체 결합과정을 진행하여 친수성의 탄소나노튜브와 이산화티타늄 전구체의 결합을 유도한다(S104). In the state in which the surface of the carbon nanotube is modified to be hydrophilic through the formation of the hydrophilic functional group of the carbon nanotube, the process of binding the titanium dioxide precursor is conducted to induce the binding of the hydrophilic carbon nanotube and the titanium dioxide precursor (S104).

먼저, 이산화티타늄 전구체를 준비한다. 이산화티타늄 전구체로 옥시황산티탄(titanium oxysulfate, TiOSO4·H2O)을 이용할 수 있다. 이어, 이산화티타늄 전구체와 탄소나노튜브를 혼합한 후, 분쇄한다. 이와 같은 혼합, 분쇄과정을 통해 탄소나노튜브의 친수성 기능기에 이산화티타늄 전구체가 결합되는 것을 유도할 수 있다. 옥시황산티탄(TiOSO4·H2O)이 수화물임에 따라 친수성의 탄소나노튜브와의 결합력이 증가된다. First, a titanium dioxide precursor is prepared. Titanium oxysulfate (TiOSO 4 · H 2 O) can be used as the titanium dioxide precursor. Subsequently, the titanium dioxide precursor and the carbon nanotube are mixed and then pulverized. Through this mixing and grinding process, it is possible to induce the binding of the titanium dioxide precursor to the hydrophilic functional group of the carbon nanotube. As titanium oxysulfate (TiOSO 4 · H 2 O) is a hydrate, the binding force with hydrophilic carbon nanotubes is increased.

또한, 이산화티타늄 전구체와 탄소나노튜브의 혼합시, 이산화티타늄 전구체는 탄소나노튜브 대비 10∼50mol%의 비율로 혼합되는 것이 바람직하다. 이산화티타늄 전구체의 혼합비율이 10mol%에서 50mol%로 증가함에 따라 내부공간에 생성되는 이산화티타늄 나노입자의 양이 증가한다(도 10 및 도 11 참조). 이산화티타늄 전구체의 혼합비율이 50mol%를 초과하면, 내부공간에 생성되는 이산화티타늄 나노입자 양이 더 이상 증가하지도 않을 뿐더러, 탄소나노튜브의 겉보기 표면에도 나노입자가 과도하게 많이 생기게 된다.In addition, when the titanium dioxide precursor and the carbon nanotube are mixed, the titanium dioxide precursor is preferably mixed at a ratio of 10 to 50 mol% compared to the carbon nanotube. As the mixing ratio of the titanium dioxide precursor increases from 10 mol% to 50 mol%, the amount of titanium dioxide nanoparticles generated in the internal space increases (see FIGS. 10 and 11). When the mixing ratio of the titanium dioxide precursor exceeds 50 mol%, the amount of titanium dioxide nanoparticles generated in the internal space is no longer increased, and the nanoparticles are excessively formed on the apparent surface of the carbon nanotubes.

친수성 기능기에 의해 친수성으로 개질된 탄소나노튜브에 이산화티타늄 전구체가 결합된 상태에서, 이산화티타늄 전구체가 결합된 탄소나노튜브를 열가수분해(thermal decomposition)를 실시하여 이산화티타늄 전구체를 이산화티타늄 나노입자로 변환시킴과 함께 이산화티타늄 나노입자를 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간에 고정화시킨다(S105). In a state in which a titanium dioxide precursor is bound to a carbon nanotube modified hydrophilically by a hydrophilic functional group, the carbon dioxide tube bound with the titanium dioxide precursor is subjected to thermal decomposition to convert the titanium dioxide precursor into titanium dioxide nanoparticles. Upon conversion, the titanium dioxide nanoparticles are immobilized in the inner space of the carbon nanotube (S105).

상기 열가수분해는 불활성가스 분위기 하에서 400∼600℃의 온도에서 진행된다. 상기 열가수분해에 의해 이산화티타늄 전구체는 이산화티타늄 나노입자로 가수분해되며(식 1 참조), 열가수분해에 의해 생성된 이산화티타늄 나노입자는 탄소나노튜브의 겉보기 표면 및 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간에 고정화된 상태를 이룬다. The thermal hydrolysis proceeds at an inert gas atmosphere at a temperature of 400 to 600 ° C. The titanium dioxide precursor is hydrolyzed to titanium dioxide nanoparticles by thermal hydrolysis (see Equation 1), and the titanium dioxide nanoparticles produced by thermal hydrolysis are formed on the apparent surface of the carbon nanotubes and the internal space of the carbon nanotubes. It achieves a fixed state.

(식 1) CNT + TiOSO4·(x+1)H2O → CNT + TiO2·xH2O + H2SO4 (Equation 1) CNT + TiOSO 4 · (x + 1) H 2 O → CNT + TiO 2 · xH 2 O + H 2 SO 4

이와 같은 상태에서, 증류수 세척을 실시하면 탄소나노튜브의 표면에 존재하는 이산화티타늄 나노입자는 제거되고, 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간에만 이산화티타늄 나노입자가 고정화된 상태를 유지하게 된다. 이상의 과정을 통해 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간에 이산화티타늄 나노입자가 고정화된 광촉매 소재를 제조할 수 있다. In this state, when distilled water is washed, the titanium dioxide nanoparticles present on the surface of the carbon nanotubes are removed, and the titanium dioxide nanoparticles are fixed in the inner space of the carbon nanotubes. Through the above process, a photocatalytic material in which titanium dioxide nanoparticles are immobilized in the inner space of the carbon nanotube can be manufactured.

이상, 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 탄소나노튜브의 내부공간에 이산화티타늄 나노입자가 고정화된 광촉매 소재 및 그 제조방법을 설명하였다. 이하에서는, 실험예를 통해 본 발명을 보다 구체적으로 설명하기로 한다. As described above, the photocatalytic material in which titanium dioxide nanoparticles are immobilized in the inner space of the carbon nanotube according to an embodiment of the present invention and a method of manufacturing the same are described. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail through experimental examples.

The carbon nanotubes were heat treated at 400 to 500 ° C or higher in an electric furnace under air conditions. The heat-treated carbon nanotube was immersed in hydrochloric acid at 60 ° C. and then stirred for 24 hours. The hydrochloric acid treated carbon nanotube was washed several times with distilled water, filtered and dried in an oven. Subsequently, the carbon nanotube was immersed in a mixed solution in which nitric acid and sulfuric acid were mixed at a volume ratio of 1: 3, and maintained at 80 ° C and stirred for about 4 hours. Then, the carbon nanotube was washed several times with distilled water, filtered and dried in an oven.

옥시황산티탄(TiOSO4·H2O)을 탄소나노튜브 대비 10∼50mol%의 비율로 탄소나노튜브에 혼합한 후 분쇄하였다. 이어, 전기로에서 아르곤 가스 조건 하 400∼600℃의 온도로 소성시켜 광촉매 소재를 제조하였다. 소성 후, 광촉매 소재에 대해 증류수 세척을 실시하였다. Titanium oxysulfate (TiOSO 4 · H 2 O) was mixed in a carbon nanotube at a ratio of 10 to 50 mol% compared to a carbon nanotube, and then pulverized. Subsequently, the photocatalyst material was prepared by firing in an electric furnace at a temperature of 400 to 600 ° C under argon gas conditions. After firing, distilled water was washed on the photocatalytic material.

In addition, it can be seen that the inner space of the carbon nanotube is about 5 nm in diameter, and the titanium dioxide nanoparticles are fixed in a certain size in the inner space of the carbon nanotube. Along with this, referring to FIG. 5 showing EDS (energy dispersive spectrometer) analysis results of the photocatalytic material prepared through Experimental Example 1, it can be confirmed that the material present in the inner space of the carbon nanotube is titanium dioxide nanoparticles.

한편, 티타늄 전구체의 소성온도에 따라 생성되는 이산화티타늄 나노입자의 결정상이 달라짐을 확인하였다. 도 6의 XRD 결과를 참조하면, 소성온도가 400℃ 정도에서는 생성된 이산화티타늄에 특별한 양상이 나타나지 않으나, 500℃에서는 아나타제(anatase) 형태로만 존재하고, 소성온도가 600℃로 높아질수록 아나타제와 루타일(rutile) 형태가 공존하는 것을 확인할 수 있다(도 12 참조). On the other hand, it was confirmed that the crystal phase of the titanium dioxide nanoparticles produced varies according to the firing temperature of the titanium precursor. Referring to the XRD results of FIG. 6, when the calcination temperature is about 400 ° C, there is no particular aspect of the titanium dioxide produced, but at 500 ° C, it exists only in the form of an anatase, and as the calcination temperature increases to 600 ° C, anatase and ruta It can be confirmed that the rutile forms coexist (see FIG. 12).
