Description

The carbon nano pipe array preparation method and the device of high quality, high yield
Technical field
The invention belongs to field of nanometer technology, particularly relating to the hexanaphthene is carbon source, the method and the device of the carbon nano pipe array of preparation high quality, high yield.
Background technology
Carbon nano pipe array (carbon nanotube arrays-CNTAs or aligned carbon nanotubes-ACNTs, patent of the present invention is got the former abbreviated form) is carbon nanotube (a kind of important existence form of carbon nanotubes-CNTs).In CNTAs, CNTs with arrange in order, highly parallel, highdensity form exists.CNTAs has not only kept performances such as the mechanics, electricity, calorifics of the excellence of CNTs, but also had the constructional feature of height-oriented property, high-density and the collimation of CNTs, so has good application prospects in fields such as mould material, nano capacitor and the ultracapacitor of field emission display, nano composite material, special purpose, nano electron device, nanometer film transmitter, special coating, sun power utilization, hydrogen storage materials.
From (Li W Z such as Li, Xie S S, Qian L X, et al..Large-Scale Synthesis of Aligned CarbonNanotubes.Science, 1996,274 (5293): 1701-1703) reported first utilize duct restriction CNTs epitaxial method to prepare since the CNTAs, the researchdevelopment of relevant CNTAs preparation is very fast, reported multiple CNTAs preparation method in the document, as template, the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method, plasma enhanced CVD (PECVD) method, electron cyclotron resonace CVD (ECR-CVD) method, the catalytic cracking solution, catalyst film method etc.; Above-listed method all can be summed up as chemical method.
Adopt physical method, the CNTs for preparing with catalystic pyrolysis or arc discharge method is a raw material, also can prepare CNTAs; As adding under the action of a magnetic field, utilize the magneticanisotropy of CNTs to prepare CNTAs; The suspension of preparation CNTs utilizes the self-assembly performance of CNTs to prepare CNTAs; Adopt the method for cutting CNTs-polymer composites to prepare CNTAs etc.
Result for retrieval to domestic and international patent documentation shows, U.S.'s patent of invention of relevant CNTAs preparation has hundreds of, and the world inventions patent has tens, and it is 20 multinomial that Chinese invention patent has.No matter but the paper of having delivered, or in the patent of invention, all clearly do not provide the yield of CNTAs both at home and abroad.
In the various preparation CNTAs methods of bibliographical information, quite a few method can make the CNTAs of high quality (purity height, favorable orientation, degree of collimation height), but because yield is very low, preparation cost is very high, makes the applied research of CNTAs and exploitation be subjected to very big restriction.
With benzene is carbon source, though adopt aerosol-CVD method can make CNTAs, quality is not fine (Mayne M, Grobert N, Terrones M, et al..Chem.Phys.Lett., 2001,338 (2-3): 101-107); Through improvement to this method, the quality of CNTAs product significantly improves, but still very low (the Scharff P of yield, Cui S.Frontiers ofMultifunctional Integrated Nanosystems.Edited By Buzaneva E and Scharff P, KluwerAcademic Publ ishers, NATO Sci.Ser.II.Math., Phys.﹠amp; Chem., Vol.152,2004, pp.153-166); And the benzene environmental pollution is serious, is unwell to suitability for industrialized production.
Adopting a step pyrolysis installation, is carbon source with the hexanaphthene, though can make CNTAs, yield is still very low, and second-rate (Mahanandia P, Nanda K K.Nanotechnology, 2008,19 (15): 155602 (7pp)).
