The curved shape may be a cylindrical shape, a spiral shape, or other regular or irregular shape. Specifically, the curved surface shape can be regarded as a surface formed by moving a straight line segment having a fixed length along a curved trajectory. This moving straight line segment is called the straight busbar of the facet, and the fixed curve is called the guideline of the facet. When the guideline is rounded, the resulting kneading surface is called a cylindrical surface.

The reaction furnace 'may be a tubular reaction furnace. When the flexible substrate 104 is bent into a spiral or a cylindrical shape, the axial direction of the spiral or cylindrical flexible substrate 104 may be parallel to the axis of the tubular reactor. The direction is set in the tubular reactor. 099110663 Form No. A0101 Page 7 of 24 0992018755-0 [0023] Further, the two ends of the flexible substrate 104 can be fixed by a bracket, which can fix the curved shape of the flexible substrate 104 to be curved. The flexible substrate 104 can be suspended in the reaction furnace, and the bracket needs to cover the flexible substrate 104 as little as possible to avoid the amount of heat insulation or carbon source gas from being transmitted to the catalyst layer, thereby affecting the nanocarbon. The growth of the tube. The carbon source gas may be selected from the group consisting of acetylene, ethylene, ethane, etc., preferably a chemically active hydrocarbon such as acetylene, and the protective gas may be nitrogen, ammonia or an inert gas. [0024] The carbon nanotube array 102 includes a plurality of carbon nanotubes that are sequentially aligned perpendicular to the flexible substrate 104. The plurality of carbon nanotubes are substantially linear, and after the flexible substrate 104 is unfolded into a planar shape, the plurality of carbon nanotubes are substantially parallel to each other and are substantially perpendicular to at least one of the flexible substrates 104. Growth in the direction of the surface. The substantially parallel means that most of the plurality of carbon nanotubes extend substantially in the same direction, and only a few carbon nanotubes are randomly arranged, and the carbon nanotubes are not large in the carbon nanotube array 1 0 2 The overall orientation of most carbon nanotubes constitutes a significant impact. The substantially vertical means that a majority of the carbon nanotubes in the plurality of carbon nanotubes are perpendicular to at least one surface of the flexible substrate 104, and only a few of the carbon nanotubes are not completely perpendicular to the flexible substrate 104, It is approximately vertical, such as greater than or equal to 80 degrees and less than or equal to 100 degrees. The carbon nanotube array 102 contains substantially no impurities such as amorphous carbon or residual catalyst metal particles, etc., by controlling the growth conditions described above. The carbon nanotubes in the array of carbon nanotubes have a van der Waals force between each other. > [0025] It is difficult to pull a carbon nanotube film from a curved substrate, especially a carbon nanotube array 102 formed by bending a curved curved substrate surface. Form No. A0101 Page 8 of 24 0992018755-0 201134755 'Before pulling the carbon nanotube film, in step two, the flexible substrate 104 having grown the carbon nanotube array 1 〇 2 is taken out from the reaction furnace and unfolded. . [0026] The unfolding means that the flexible substrate 1 〇 4 bent into a curved shape is unfolded to have a small curvature as a whole to facilitate the shape of the subsequent drawn film 'preferably into a planar shape' to grow The carbon nanotube array ι 2 on the surface of the flexible substrate 104 is also expanded into a planar shape.

Carbon tube 145 composition. The pulling tool is used to select and pull the carbon nanotube segment i 4 3 from the unfolded carbon nanotube array 1 〇 2 . The pull tool is preferably a tape having a fixed width or a hard base having a surface with an adhesive. The process of selecting the carbon nanotube segment 43 may be performed by contacting the carbon nanotube array 丨〇2 with a tape or a hard-based adhesive to make the nanocarbon [0028] 片段 tube segment 143 Adhered to the surface of the tape or rigid strip. In step four, the carbon nanotube section 143 is pulled by moving the stretching tool. The stretching tool can be moved away from the carbon nanotube array 1〇2 to pull the selected carbon nanotube segments at a fixed speed. When the selected carbon nanotube limb 143 gradually disengages from the flexible substrate 1G4 in the pulling direction under the pulling force, other nanometer adjacent to the selected carbon nanotube segment 143 due to the van der Waals force acts. The carbon tube segments are successively pulled out end to end to form a continuous, uniform nanocarbon s film 100. The width of the carbon nanotube film may be substantially the same as the width of the selected nanocarbon sheet & 143. Pull out the carbon nanotubes (four) one end of the 01099110663 is connected with the stretching tool, and the other end is connected with the carbon nanotube array form No. A0101 Page 9 / 24 pages 0992018755-0 201134755 The carbon nanotube film 100 is joined to the carbon nanotube array 102, and the angle between the carbon nanotube film 100 and the flexible substrate 104 is greater than or equal to 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees, preferably less than 30 degrees. During the continuous pulling of the carbon nanotube film 100, the angle is maintained at less than 30 degrees, that is, substantially all of the carbon nanotubes are pulled out in a direction less than 30 degrees. When the carbon nanotubes in the carbon nanotube array 102 are successively pulled out from the carbon nanotube array 102, the contact between the formed carbon nanotube film 100 and the carbon nanotube array 102 has A boundary line that continuously moves along the surface of the flexible substrate in a direction opposite to the direction of the film as the carbon nanotube array 102 is continuously consumed. Preferably, the boundary is always in a straight line until all of the carbon nanotubes in the array of carbon nanotubes 102 are pulled out. [0029] In addition, the above steps 2 and 3 may be performed simultaneously, specifically: firstly, the flexible substrate 104 is partially unfolded, thereby partially unfolding the carbon nanotube array 102; and the partially expanded carbon nanotube array 102 is deployed. The film is stretched thereon; then, during the film drawing, the planar flexible substrate 104 curved into a curved shape is continuously partially expanded into a planar shape to continuously provide the planar shape carbon nanotube array 1 0 2, Thereby, the carbon nanotube film 100 is continuously pulled out from the planar carbon nanotube array 102. In addition, the second step and the third step may also be performed separately, specifically: firstly, the flexible substrate 104 is completely unfolded, thereby fully unfolding the carbon nanotube array 102; and then the carbon carbon is fully deployed in the whole. The tube array 102 is pulled up. In this embodiment, the second step and the third step are performed simultaneously, as follows: [0030] a, a fixing device and a deployment tool (not shown) are provided, and the flexible substrate 104 is fixed by the fixing device; b, Using the unfolding tool 099110663 Form No. A0101 Page 10 / Total 24 page 0992018755-0 201134755 Clamping one of the free ends of the flexible substrate 104 and stretching to one side of the flexible substrate i〇4, making the flexibility The substrate 104 is partially unfolded such that the carbon nanotube array 102 grown on the flexible substrate 104 is also partially expanded; c, the stretching tool is used to pull up the carbon nanotube array 1 〇 2 of the expanded portion The carbon nanotube film 100 is taken.

In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the card slot 122 is a spiral shape. The manner in which the spiral flexible substrate 104 is fixed by the latch 122 is specifically that the two ends of the spiral flexible substrate 1 4 in the axial direction are respectively disposed in the two card slots 122, because The two card slots 122 are also in the shape of a spiral, and the two card slots 122 are opposite and spaced apart so that the spiral flexible substrate 104 can be fixed in it and the two ends are surrounded by the card slot 122. In addition to the settings, the other parts are suspended. In step b, during the stretching of the flexible substrate 104 by the deployment tool, since both ends of the flexible substrate 1〇4 are movably disposed in the two card slots 122, the The flexible substrate 104 is gradually removed and deployed along the spiral path of the card slot 122 under the pulling force of the deployment tool. In step c, during the film drawing process, the flexible substrate 104 moves from the card slot as the boundary between the formed carbon nanotube film 1〇〇 and the carbon nanotube array 1〇2 is continuously moved 099110663. The 122 is gradually removed and unfolded, and the speed of the unfolding is substantially the same as the speed at which the carbon nanotube array 102 is consumed (the moving speed of the boundary) to achieve continuous film pulling. In addition, in the film drawing process, it is preferable that the drawing direction is substantially the same as the unfolding surface number A0101 page 11 / 24 pages 0992018755-0 201134755 [0031] [0032]. Further, while the carbon nanotube is gradually detached from the flexible substrate 1〇4 and the carbon nanotube film 100 is formed, the flexible substrate 104 from which the carbon nanotube has been detached can be gradually wound. It will be appreciated that the area of the flexible substrate 104 may be large when the flexible substrate 104 is curved into a curved shape and the carbon nanotube array 102 is formed in the reaction chamber, particularly when curved into a spiral shape. Fully expanding a large-area flexible substrate 1〇4 into a planar shape requires a large space and is inconvenient for industrial continuous production. Therefore, by the process of the above-mentioned low-open flexible substrate 104, and the pulling of the carbon nanotube film simultaneously, the pulling of the nanometer can be saved as much as possible. The space required for the carbon nanotube film 100 process can be expanded only by a portion of the flexible substrate 104 required. Further, while the carbon nanotube film 10 is being pulled, the drawn carbon nanotube film may be covered on the surface of a substrate for convenience of storage. The substrate is preferably a flexible layered substrate 11〇. The process of covering the carbon nanotube film 1 to the layered substrate 110 may be performed simultaneously with the process of unfolding the flexible substrate 1〇4 and the process of drawing the carbon nanotube film 1〇〇, specifically The method includes: [0034] a providing a flexible layered substrate 110 having a first surface 112 and a second surface 114; [0035] b. The carbon nanotube film 100 to be drawn One end of the connection with the stretching tool is attached to the first surface 112 of the layered substrate 11Q; [0036] 099110663 c. The movement of the layered substrate 11Q drives the carbon nanotube film 100 to move, thereby enabling The carbon nanotube film 1〇〇 is continuously pulled out from the carbon nanotube array table No. A0101, page 12/24 pages 0992018755-0 201134755 [0037] [0040] 00 [0040] 102, And attached to the first surface 112 9 of the layered substrate 110. The layered substrate 110 can be a poly (PET) plastic, which is convenient for use and reduces the occupied space of the layered substrate 110. The layered substrate 110 is further wound on a first reel 106. Further, before the carbon nanotube film 100 is attached to the layered substrate 110, the carbon nanotube film 100 is irradiated with laser light, and the carbon nanotube film can be made by the laser irradiation. The thickness of 100 is reduced, thereby increasing the transparency of the carbon nanotube film 100. The specific reason is that a part of the carbon nanotubes in the carbon nanotube film 100 that absorbs more heat is burned out because of the better absorption characteristics of the carbon nanotubes. Further, in order to enable the carbon nanotube film 100 to be firmly attached to the first surface 112 of the layered substrate 110, after the layered substrate 110 is detached from the first reel 106, and attached Before the carbon nanotube film 100, an adhesive layer (not shown) is uniformly coated on the first surface 112 of the layered substrate 110, and the adhesive layer may be a common adhesive or a UV-curable adhesive. Further, after the carbon nanotube film 100 is attached to the layered substrate 100, the layered substrate 110 to which the carbon nanotube film 100 is attached may be further hot-pressed, or the attachment may be irradiated with ultraviolet rays. A carbon nanotube film on the layered substrate to cure the adhesive layer. Specifically, the hot pressing method may be: providing two dice 116 respectively disposed on opposite sides of the layered substrate 110 and oppositely disposed, and one of the dice 116 is in contact with the layered substrate 110, Another dice 116 is in contact with the carbon nanotube film 100, and the two dice 116 are rotated by 099110663 Form No. A0101 Page 13 of 24 0992018755-0 201134755, the two bases 11 6 not only applying a fixed pressure to the layered substrate 110 and the carbon nanotube film 100, but also applying a force in the stretching direction to the layered substrate 110 and the carbon nanotube film 100. At the same time, in the process, the adhesive layer can be heated to cure the adhesive layer, thereby finally fixing the carbon nanotube film 100 to the layered substrate 110 in a flat manner. [0041] Further, a second reel 108 may be provided, and the layered substrate 110 covered with the carbon nanotube film 100 is rolled while the carbon nanotube film 100 is drawn and covered on the layered substrate 110. Wrap around the second reel 108. In order to prevent the second surface of the wound layered substrate 110 from adhering to the carbon nanotube film 100, the second surface 114 of the layered substrate 110 may further have bismuth, paraffin, Teflon or other stickers. The base film coating material is used, so that the bonding force of the first surface 112 of the layered substrate 110 to the carbon nanotubes can be much greater than the bonding force of the second surface 114 to the carbon nanotubes, thereby winding the The layered substrate 110 on the second reel 108 covered with the carbon nanotube film 100 can be unrolled as needed. Referring to FIG. 4, the carbon nanotube film 100 is a self-supporting structure composed of a plurality of carbon nanotubes. The plurality of carbon nanotubes are arranged in a preferred orientation along the length of the carbon nanotube film 100. The preferred orientation means that the majority of the carbon nanotubes in the carbon nanotube film 100 extend substantially in the same direction. Moreover, the overall direction of extension of the majority of the carbon nanotubes is substantially parallel to the surface of the carbon nanotube film 100. Further, most of the carbon nanotubes in the carbon nanotube film 100 are connected end to end by Van der Waals force. Specifically, each of the carbon nanotubes in the majority of the carbon nanotubes 100 extending in the same direction and the carbon nanotubes adjacent in the extending direction are connected end to end by Van der Waals force . Of course, the carbon nanotube film 100 is 099110663 Form No. 1010101 Page 14 / Total 24 Page 0992018755-0 201134755 There are a few carbon nanotubes deviating from the extending direction, these carbon nanotubes will not be on the carbon nanotubes. The overall orientation of the majority of the carbon nanotubes in film 100 constitutes a significant influence. The self-supporting carbon nanotube film 100 does not require a large-area carrier support, but can maintain a self-membrane state as long as the support force is provided on both sides, that is, the carbon nanotube film 100 is placed (or When fixed to two supports disposed at a fixed distance apart, the carbon nanotube film 100 located between the two supports can be suspended to maintain a self-film state. The self-supporting is mainly achieved by the presence of a continuous carbon nanotube in the carbon nanotube film 100 which is continuously connected by van der Waals force. Specifically, a plurality of carbon nanotubes extending substantially in the same direction in the carbon nanotube film are not absolutely linear, and may be appropriately bent; or may not be arranged completely in the extending direction, and may be appropriately Deviate from the direction of extension. Therefore, it is not possible to exclude partial contact between the carbon nanotubes juxtaposed in the majority of the carbon nanotubes of the carbon nanotube film 100 which extend substantially in the same direction. [0043] Macroscopically, since most of the carbon nanotubes in the carbon nanotube film 100 extend along the length direction of the carbon nanotube film 100, the length of the carbon nanotube film 100 is significantly better than the width direction. Conductive and thermal conductivity, in addition, since most of the carbon nanotubes are connected end to end by Van der Waals force, the carbon nanotube film 100 is macroscopically self-supporting. Specifically, each of the carbon nanotube films 100 includes a plurality of continuous and aligned carbon nanotube segments 143. The plurality of carbon nanotube segments 143 are connected end to end by Van der Valli. Each of the carbon nanotube segments 143 is composed of a plurality of carbon nanotubes 145 which are parallel to each other, and the plurality of mutually parallel carbon nanotubes 145 are tightly bonded by van der Waals force. The carbon nanotube segment 143 has any length 099110663 Form No. A0101 Page 15 / Total 24 Page 0992018755-0 201134755 [0049] [0049] [0049] 099110663 degrees, thickness, uniformity and shape . The carbon nanotube film 100 has a thickness of from 0.5 nm to 100 m and a length related to the area of the carbon nanotube array 102. The specific surface area of the carbon nanotube film 100 can be greater than 100 square meters per gram. The carbon nanotube film 100 has a good light transmittance, and the visible light transmittance can be 75% or more. The method for preparing a carbon nanotube film has the following advantages: First, the flexible substrate can be bent into various shapes and then placed in the same reactor to grow a carbon nanotube array, compared to a conventional hard growth substrate. Therefore, the space inside the reactor can be fully utilized to grow a larger size carbon nanotube array, and the nanocarbon tube obtained by drawing the carbon nanotube array has a larger area. Secondly, because the flexible substrate has flexibility, it can be unfolded into a planar shape. Compared with directly pulling a nano tube film on a complicated curved substrate, the curved substrate is first unfolded and then the nano carbon is pulled. The way of the membrane is simpler and easier. In summary, the present invention has indeed met the requirements of the invention patent, and the patent application is filed according to law. However, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it is not possible to limit the scope of the patent application of the present invention. Equivalent modifications or variations made by persons skilled in the art in light of the present invention are intended to be included within the scope of the following claims.
