Description

Catalyst carrier carbon material for preparing carbon nano tube and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of carbon materials, in particular to a catalyst carrier carbon material for preparing carbon nanotubes and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The catalyst is one of the essential raw materials in the synthesis process of the carbon nano tube, and the type, the chemical property, the particle size, the distribution and the like of the catalyst are important factors for controlling the morphology and the structure of the carbon nano tube. For the same catalyst, the particle size of the catalyst is a key factor for controlling the diameter of the carbon nanotube. Hafner et al believe that nucleation and growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes thereon is more favored when the catalyst size is less than 3nm, and as the catalyst particle size increases, the catalyst surface tends to coat with carbon resulting in "deactivation" of the catalyst or growth of multi-walled carbon nanotubes, and even carbon fibers.
On one hand, the 'inactivation' of the catalyst seriously reduces the yield of the carbon nano tube, and meanwhile, the carbon-coated catalyst is difficult to remove in the subsequent purification process and remains in the finished product of the carbon nano tube, so that the impurity content is high, the practical application of the carbon nano tube is influenced, and the carbon nano tube is particularly used as a battery conductive additive.
The use of different carriers to fix catalysts with uniform particle size distribution is a common idea for the synthesis of high quality carbon nanotubes. For example, a high density carbon nanotube array can be obtained by supporting uniform, nano-scale catalyst particles on a substrate (e.g., chinese patent application CN102502589A, CN 101077773A). In addition, the porous carrier is an effective means for mass production of carbon nanotube powder, including carbon-based materials.
The carbon material is used as a catalyst carrier and has been reported in related technologies at home and abroad. The carbon material described herein relates to a single component or a composite of two components of porous carbon black, ketjen black, graphene and derivatives thereof, and also to a carbon material obtained by carbonizing a polymer. The above materials are subject to one or more of the following problems: (1) the preparation process is carried out at high temperature, the temperature is not equal to 500-2000 ℃, even exceeds 2000 ℃, and the danger and the energy consumption are serious (for example, Chinese patent applications CN105073260A, CN106876729B and CN 109935846A); (2) the polymer needs to be subjected to small molecule polymerization reaction in the early stage of carbonization, the synthesis steps are complicated, and a large amount of small molecules such as initiator and monomer remain (for example, Chinese patent application CN 106876729B); (3) the surface is inert in chemical reaction, the activity is low, the loading of the catalyst is mainly dependent on defect sites randomly distributed on the surface, the loading rate and the loading uniformity are not controllable, and other surface modifiers are generally needed (for example, Chinese patent application CN 109935846A); (4) the carrier is agglomerated in the process of removing the solvent or synthesizing the carbon nano tube, so that the surface actually utilized is greatly reduced.
Therefore, a simple and efficient carbon material with a high specific surface, a low possibility of agglomeration and an active surface is found to be used as a carrier of the carbon nanotube catalyst, is very important for preparing high-quality carbon nanotubes in batch, and can greatly promote the controllable preparation and wide application of the carbon nanotubes. In addition, the catalyst has reference significance for other catalysis fields such as fuel cells, industrial catalysis and the like.
It is noted that the information disclosed in the foregoing background section is only for enhancement of background understanding of the invention and therefore it may contain information that does not constitute prior art that is already known to a person of ordinary skill in the art.

A first aspect of the present invention provides a method for producing a carbon material, the method comprising: providing a conductive particle intercalated graphene oxide dispersion liquid; and granulating the graphene oxide dispersion liquid of the conductive particle intercalation to remove a solvent to obtain the carbon material.
Fig. 1 shows a flow chart of a process for producing a carbon material according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 1, in the present embodiment, the method for producing a carbon material includes: dispersing graphene oxide in a first solvent to obtain a graphene oxide dispersion liquid; dispersing the conductive particles in a second solvent to obtain a conductive particle dispersion liquid; fully mixing the graphene oxide dispersion liquid and the conductive particle dispersion liquid to obtain a conductive particle intercalated graphene oxide dispersion liquid; and granulating the graphene oxide dispersion liquid of the conductive particle intercalation to remove a solvent to obtain the carbon material.
According to the invention, in the synthesis process of the carbon nano tube, the particle size of the catalyst is a key factor for controlling the tube diameter of the carbon nano tube, and the fixation of the catalyst with uniform particle size distribution by using different catalyst carriers is a common idea for synthesizing the high-quality carbon nano tube, so that the selection of the catalyst carrier plays an important role in the quality of the synthesized carbon nano tube. The commonly used catalyst carrier is a carbon material, however, the existing catalyst carbon carrier has complex preparation process and harsh reaction conditions; or the load rate and load uniformity of the obtained carrier are not controllable; or easy to agglomerate, greatly reducing the practical utilization surface. The inventor of the invention finds that the carbon composite material with a multistage assembly structure can be prepared by a simple and low-cost process method, and the carbon material can effectively improve the efficiency and quality of catalyst loading.
Specifically, the carbon material preparation process disclosed by the invention firstly prepares the graphene oxide dispersion liquid for conductive particle intercalation, utilizes the high monolayer rate and high surface activity of the graphene oxide, and simultaneously enables the dispersion liquid to still maintain a higher specific surface after the solvent is removed by the conductive particle intercalation technology, so that the collapse and damage of the structure due to agglomeration are avoided. And continuously granulating to remove the solvent on the basis, so that the dried material forms a sphere-like structure with folds macroscopically while microscopically not agglomerating, and further exposes and fixes an active surface capable of being loaded by the catalyst. In addition, because the drying temperature is low, the preparation process has no high temperature, most of oxygen-containing groups of the catalyst are reserved, a large number of active sites are provided for capturing the catalyst, and the efficiency and the quality of the catalyst loading are improved.
The method for producing the carbon material of the present invention will be specifically described below with reference to FIG. 1.
Firstly, Graphene Oxide (GO) is dispersed in a first solvent to obtain a graphene oxide dispersion liquid.
The graphene oxide can be graphene oxide powder or a filter cake, or a graphene oxide pre-dispersion liquid which is pre-dispersed to a certain extent. Dispersing the graphene oxide in a first solvent, such as water, an aromatic solvent, or a solvent having not more than 3 carbon atoms (n)C3) or less, for example, ethanol, propanol, etc. The concentration of the graphene oxide dispersion is 0.05mg/mL to 40mg/mL, for example, 0.05mg/mL, 0.1mg/mL, 1mg/mL, 10mg/mL, 15mg/mL, 20mg/mL, 30mg/mL, or the like. In order to make the graphene oxide more dispersible, a proper amount of surfactant, including but not limited to one or more of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sodium lignosulfonate, polyvinyl alcohol, polydimethylsiloxane, gamma- (2, 3-glycidoxy) propyltrimethoxysilane (KH-560) and gamma-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (KH-550), may be further added to the first solvent.
Next, the conductive particles are dispersed in a second solvent to obtain a conductive particle dispersion liquid.
The conductive particles are selected from one or more of carbon black, ketjen black, onion carbon and fullerene. The conductive particle dispersion liquid can be obtained by mixing and dispersing the conductive particle dispersion liquid and a soluble second solvent according to a certain proportion. Wherein the second solvent can be water, aromatic solvent, and carbon number not more than 3 (n)C3) or less, for example, ethanol, propanol, etc. The conductive particles account for 1% to 30% of the total mass of the graphene oxide and the conductive particles, for example, 1%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 30%, and the like. Similarly, a suitable amount of a surfactant, including but not limited to one or more of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sodium lignosulfonate, polyvinyl alcohol, polydimethylsiloxane, gamma- (2, 3-glycidoxy) propyltrimethoxysilane (KH-560), and gamma-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (KH-550), may also be added to the second solvent.
In some embodiments, the dispersion of the graphene oxide and the dispersion of the conductive particles may be performed by a dispersion apparatus such as an ultrasonic dispersion apparatus, a high-speed dispersion tray, or an emulsifying machine.
Further, after the two dispersions were obtained, the two were thoroughly mixed. The mixing apparatus may be a homogenizer, a centrifugal mill, or a combination thereof, to which the present invention is not limited. In the homogenizing treatment, the pressure of the homogenizing treatment is generally 1000bar to 1200bar, for example, 1000bar, 1100bar, 1150bar, 1180bar, 1200bar, etc., the flow rate is 0.1mL/s to 5mL/s, for example, 0.1mL/s, 0.8mL/s, 1mL/s, 2mL/s, 2.5mL/s, 3mL/s, etc., and the treatment time is 20min to 60min, for example, 20min, 30min, 50min, 55min, 60min, etc. And mixing to obtain a graphene oxide dispersion liquid of the conductive particle intercalation, and further granulating to remove the solvent to obtain the carbon material.
The graphene oxide dispersion liquid intercalated by the conductive particles can still maintain a higher specific surface area after solvent removal treatment, and is not easy to agglomerate. Preferably, the desolventizing is carried out by a spray drying technique, which ensures that the material does not agglomerate microscopically, and simultaneously enables the material to take on a macroscopically wrinkled spheroidal or spherical structure, further exposing and fixing the active surface on which the catalyst can be supported.
In some embodiments, the foregoing spray drying is conducted at a pressure of 0.1MPa to 0.5MPa, e.g., 0.1MPa, 0.3MPa, 0.4MPa, 0.5MPa, etc., at a flow rate of 800mL/h to 1500mL/h, e.g., 800mL/h, 900mL/h, 1000mL/h, 1200mL/h, 1500mL/h, etc., and at a temperature of 120 ℃ to 200 ℃, e.g., 120 ℃, 130 ℃, 150 ℃, 180 ℃, etc. Due to the low drying temperature, most of oxygen-containing groups of the material are reserved, a large number of active sites are provided for capturing the catalyst, and the efficiency and the quality of the catalyst loading are further improved.
The carbon material prepared by the method is in a sphere-like or spherical structure, wherein the sphere-like or spherical structure is formed by aggregating a plurality of layers of thin and flexible carbon sheets, the carbon sheets are formed by graphene oxide intercalated by conductive particles, and a large number of nano-pore channels are arranged in the carbon sheets. The X-ray diffraction represents a 002 diffraction peak of graphite, each carbon sheet approximately comprises graphene oxide with the thickness of 1-10 layers, wherein the higher the oxidation degree is, the thinner the number of layers of the graphene oxide is, and oxygen-containing groups on the surface provide more active sites to adsorb conductive particles, so that stacking of the graphene oxide sheet layers in the reduction process is inhibited, and on the other hand, more loading sites can be provided for the catalyst, and the utilization efficiency of the carrier is improved.
The carbon material contains a large number of oxygen-containing groups in addition to C in an X-ray photoelectron spectrum, and the carbon material is proved to have chemical activity. The carbon material has obvious defect peaks in Raman spectrum, and the defects are beneficial to better dispersing the loaded substance on the surface of the material when the carbon material is used as a carrier.
In some embodiments, the carbon material has a specific surface area of 10m2/g~350m2In g, e.g. 10m2/g、50m2/g、100m2/g、230m2/g、290m2And/g, the particle diameter of the carbon material is 0.1 to 100. mu.m, for example, 0.1, 1, 10, 50, 70, 90, 100 μm. The high specific surface area of the material can ensure higher loading rate of the carbon material.
In conclusion, the carbon material with excellent loading performance is obtained by a simple and low-cost mode, has excellent comprehensive performance of simple preparation process, high specific surface area, difficult agglomeration and surface activity, can be used as a carrier for preparing a carbon nanotube catalyst, effectively solves the problems of inactivation and particle size distribution of the carbon nanotube catalyst, is very important for preparing high-quality carbon nanotubes in batches, and can greatly promote the controllable preparation and wide application of the carbon nanotubes. In addition, the catalyst has reference significance for other catalysis fields such as fuel cells, industrial catalysis and the like.

Specifically, a carbon material was charged into a quartz tube, and hydrogen gas and argon gas were simultaneously introduced at a flow rate of 300sccm, respectively, so that the carbon material was stably suspended in the quartz tube under a gas flow. Heating a fluidized bed reaction cavity to 450 ℃, introducing 100sccm Ar gas as a carrier gas, carrying ferrocene and ethanol into the reaction cavity through a supersaturated ferrocene ethanol solution with a constant temperature of 60 ℃ by a bubbling method, and then carrying out thermal cracking to form pre-carbonized iron (Fe) catalyst nanoparticles attached to the surface of the carbon material carrier, wherein the bubbling duration is 20 minutes. Then, the temperature of the fluidized bed reaction chamber is raised to 700 ℃, hydrogen gas and argon gas are respectively introduced at the same time at the flow rate of 300sccm, then carbon monoxide is introduced at the flow rate of 100sccm as a carbon source, and after 30 minutes, the carbon monoxide gas is closed. Stopping the reaction, waiting for the equipment to cool to room temperature, and then closing all the gas to obtain the graphene carbon nanotube composite material with the sea urchin-like structure, wherein the graphene carbon nanotube composite material comprises a graphene microsphere and a plurality of carbon nanotubes formed on the surface of the graphene microsphere, the graphene microsphere is formed by gathering a plurality of layers of thin and flexible carbon sheets, each carbon sheet is formed by a plurality of layers of reduced graphene oxide, and a nanopore is formed in the graphene microsphere.

Fig. 8a and 8b are transmission electron micrographs of the graphene carbon nanotube composite material of application example 1, respectively, and it can be seen from fig. 8a and 8b that the carbon nanotubes prepared under the conditions are single-walled carbon nanotubes with a tube diameter of 1nm to 3 nm.
Fig. 9 is a transmission electron microscope image of the catalyst nanoparticles formed in application example 1, and fig. 10 is a statistical distribution diagram of particle diameters of the catalyst nanoparticles formed in application example 1. As can be seen from fig. 9 and 10, the catalyst nanoparticles on the surface of the graphene oxide are uniformly distributed, the average particle diameter is 1.78nm, and more than 95% of the particles have a diameter less than 3nm, which is beneficial to preparing the single-walled carbon nanotube with a relatively small tube diameter.
