and 3, cooling in an inert gas atmosphere to obtain the graphene-carbon nanofiber composite material.
According to the present invention, in step 1, the forming of the carbon defect on the outer wall of the carbon nanofiber comprises:

According to the invention, the heat preservation time is 1-60 min, preferably 10-50 min, and more preferably 20-30 min.
In the invention, too short heat preservation time can cause that the surface of the carbon nanofiber does not generate enough carbon defects, so that graphene cannot grow, too long heat preservation time is not beneficial to waste of reaction raw materials, efficiency is reduced, and energy conservation is not facilitated.
In the present invention, when the precursor of the carbon nanofiber is used as a raw material to form the carbon defect in step 1, the precursor of the carbon nanofiber is carbonized at a high temperature to form the carbon nanofiber, and the carbon defect is simultaneously generated on the surface of the formed carbon nanofiber.
According to the present invention, in step 1, carbon defects are generated on the surface of the carbon nanofibers, and the generated carbon defects refer to non-graphitized carbon sites with local unevenness.
In the invention, the carbon nanofiber is placed in the reaction gas to be treated at high temperature, and the original structure of the carbon nanofiber is destroyed by controlling the conditions of the flow rate of the reaction gas, the temperature, the time and the like, so that uneven carbon defects are formed on the surface of the carbon nanofiber. The formed carbon defects have a plurality of dangling bonds with higher activity, have higher chemical activity at high temperature compared with other flat areas, and preferentially react with a carbon source to be used as nucleation centers for growing the graphene. Due to the fact that defect activity is high, non-defect activity around the defect is low, and graphene grows perpendicular to the outer wall of the carbon nanofiber.
According to the method, based on the thermal chemical vapor deposition principle, a carbon source is added, the temperature and the gas flow are controlled, and the graphene is directly grown on the carbon defects without adding a metal catalyst or assisting by plasma.
According to the invention, step 2, the epitaxially growing graphene on the carbon defects comprises: and (4) heating, introducing hydrogen, carbon source gas and second inert gas, and preserving heat.

In the invention, the structure of the graphene can be ensured to grow at the temperature.
According to the invention, in the step 2, the heating rate is 1-20 ℃/min, preferably 2-10 ℃/min.
According to the present invention, in step 2, the carbon source gas is not particularly limited, and may be a carbon source gas commonly used in the art, and preferably, the carbon source gas is a low molecular organic compound selected from one or more of methanol, ethanol, methane, ethane, ethylene, acetylene, and the like, and for example, the carbon source gas is methane.
In the invention, the carbon source gas is cracked at high temperature, and the carbon source gas can nucleate at the defects on the surface of the carbon nanofiber preferentially to form a local graphitized region, and then the graphene is further epitaxially grown.
According to the present invention, in step 2, the second inert gas is argon or helium, preferably argon.
According to the present invention, in step 2, the flow ratio of the hydrogen gas, the carbon source gas, and the second inert gas is 1: (1-5): (1 to 10), preferably 1: (1-4): (1-8).
In the present invention, the flow rates of hydrogen and carbon source gases have a large influence on the graphitization degree and growth rate of the product. When the flow rates of hydrogen and carbon source gases are relatively low, the growth speed of graphene on the surface of the carbon nanofiber is relatively high, but the graphitization degree is relatively low. When the flow rate is relatively high, the growth speed of graphene on the surface of the carbon nanofiber is relatively slow, but the graphitization degree is relatively high. The flow ratio of the hydrogen to the carbon source gas in a proper range can ensure proper growth speed and graphitization degree of graphene on the carbon nanofiber so as to obtain the graphene-carbon nanofiber composite material with excellent performance.
According to the present invention, in step 2, the incubation time is not particularly limited, and the desired size and density of graphene may be obtained. The growth time is prolonged, the density and the size of the obtained graphene are remarkably increased, and preferably, the heat preservation time is 30-600 min, preferably 60-200 min, and more preferably 120-180 min.
In the invention, in the step 2, the heat preservation time is too short, and the graphene growth time is too short, which may cause incomplete growth of graphene. The heat preservation time is too long, which causes waste of reaction raw materials and reduces efficiency, thus being not beneficial to energy conservation.
According to the invention, in step 3, after the heat preservation is finished, the graphene-carbon nanofiber composite material is obtained by naturally cooling in an inert gas atmosphere such as a nitrogen atmosphere. In the composite material, graphene grows on the surface of the carbon nanofiber and is vertically generated outside the carbon nanofiber, and sp is relied between the graphene and the carbon nanofiber2Carbon attachment.
In the invention, under the conditions of high temperature and hydrogen gas, the carbon source gas is cracked to nucleate on the carbon defects with high activity to form a local graphitized region, and graphene is epitaxially grown, and the grown graphene is uniformly distributed on the carbon nano-fiber.
According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, when the carbon nanofibers are carbon nanotube sponges, the obtained graphene-carbon nanotubes are graphene-carbon nanotubesThe electrical conductivity of the fiber composite material is higher than 8.0 x 102S/m, preferably higher than 1.0X 103S/m, more preferably (1.2 to 3). times.103S/m。
The method is based on a chemical vapor deposition method, the carbon defects are formed on the surface of the one-dimensional carbon nanofiber, the two-dimensional graphene is directly grown on the carbon defects, and the graphene-carbon nanofiber composite material is obtained without a metal catalyst. Depends on sp between graphene and carbon nano-fiber2The carbon is connected, so that the combination of the graphene and the carbon nanofiber is stable, the mechanical property and the electric and heat conducting properties of the carbon nanofiber are enhanced, and the obtained composite material has excellent comprehensive properties.
In sp2The structure of the composite material is more uniform and stable due to the carbon-connected graphene and the carbon nanofiber, the bonding effect between the graphene and the carbon nanofiber is stronger, and the preparation method can realize mass preparation and has important significance for promoting the application of the nano carbon material.
The preparation method of the graphene-carbon nanofiber composite material provided by the invention has the advantages of simple equipment, low production cost, no need of a metal catalyst, high product quality, controllable graphene growth size, uniform density, strong product repeatability and capability of large-scale preparation.

The graphene-carbon nanofiber composites obtained in examples 3 to 4, the carbon nanofiber-3 obtained in comparative example 1, the carbon nanofiber-4 obtained in comparative example 2, and a commercial carbon cloth (shanghai hesen electric limited 330 HCP330P) were subjected to conductivity tests at room temperature using a KDY-1 type four-probe resistivity/sheet resistance tester (queenson technologies ltd., guangzhou) by a four-probe method, respectively, five times for each sample and averaged, and the test results were shown in fig. 5 (b).
As can be seen from FIG. 5(b), the electrical conductivities of the carbon nanofiber-3 and the carbon nanofiber-4 were 3.03X 10, respectively2S/m and 4.56X 102S/m, and the electrical conductivity of the graphene-carbon nanofiber composites obtained in examples 3 and 4 was 1.244X 103S/m and 2.821X 103S/m is far higher than that of carbon nanofiber-3 and carbon nanofiber-4 of non-grown graphene, is 4-7 times of that of the carbon nanofiber of the non-grown graphene, and is obviously superior to that of a commercial carbon cloth in conductivity of 5.51 multiplied by 102S/m。
