本发明属于石墨烯制备技术领域,具体涉及一种利用电化学过程制备层数可控的高质量石墨烯的方法。The invention belongs to the technical field of graphene preparation, and particularly relates to a method for preparing high quality graphene with controllable number of layers by using an electrochemical process.
背景技术Background technique
石墨烯(graphene)是由单层碳原子紧密堆积成二维蜂窝状晶格结构的一种碳质新材料。在发现石墨烯以前,大多数物理学家认为,热力学涨落不允许任何二维晶体在有限温度下存在。2004年,英国曼彻斯特大学物理学家安德烈·海姆和康斯坦丁·诺沃肖洛夫采用“微机械力***法”(microfolitation)制备了一种单原子厚度的碳膜,这种两维碳材料表现了很高的结晶度而且异乎寻常地稳定,它可以单独存在。毋庸置疑,石墨烯是继碳纳米管、富勒烯球后的又一重大发现,海姆和诺沃肖洛夫两人也因在二维石墨烯材料的开创性研究,共同获得2010年诺贝尔物理学奖。由于石墨烯独特的二维结构和优异的晶体学结构,石墨烯蕴含了丰富而新奇的物理现象,具有重要的理论研究和应用价值。Graphene is a new carbonaceous material that is closely packed into a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice structure by a single layer of carbon atoms. Before the discovery of graphene, most physicists believed that thermodynamic fluctuations did not allow any two-dimensional crystals to exist at finite temperatures. In 2004, the physicists of the University of Manchester, André Heim and Konstantin Novoselov, used a microfolitation method to prepare a carbon film with a single atomic thickness. The dimensional carbon material exhibits high crystallinity and is unusually stable, and it can exist alone. Undoubtedly, graphene is another major discovery after carbon nanotubes and fullerene spheres. Heim and Novoselov have also won the 2010 Nobel Prize for their pioneering research on two-dimensional graphene materials. Bell Physics Award. Due to the unique two-dimensional structure of graphene and excellent crystallographic structure, graphene contains rich and novel physical phenomena, which has important theoretical research and application value.
由于石墨烯的性能与其层数有密切关系,为了实现石墨烯的商业应用,低成本高产率制备层数可控的高质量石墨烯是一个非常重要的研究方向。目前,制备石墨烯的方法包括以下几种:(1)微机械剥离法,此法制得的石墨烯晶体结构完整,但是产率太低,不适合大规模生产;(2)化学气相沉积法(CVD),此法制备的石墨烯晶体结构较完整,通过控制条件可实现层数可控,但是成本较高,制备工艺要求较高,难以实现规模生产;(3)外延生长法,该方法能够得到大面积的石墨烯,但是石墨烯薄片不易于基底分离,成本较高;(4)溶剂剥离法,此法通过将石墨与部分插层剂混合,在适当溶剂中进行剥离,该方法可得到较高质量的石墨烯,但是该方法需要长时间的超声或者球磨等处理过程,而且往往产率不高;(5)氧化还原法,该法是现阶段最常用的大量制备石墨烯的方法,但此法制得的石墨烯缺陷较多,石墨烯的导电性能较差。而且此方法很难实现层数控制,中国专利《一种层数可控的高质量石墨烯的制备方法》(CN101993061A)通过调控石墨的氧化程度,实现层数控制。但该方法使用氢氩混合气在300-1000℃的高温下还原氧化石墨,存在还原时间长,对设备要求高,反应成本高,能耗高等问题。Since the performance of graphene is closely related to the number of layers, in order to realize the commercial application of graphene, it is a very important research direction to prepare high-quality graphene with low-level and high-yield production of layers. At present, the methods for preparing graphene include the following: (1) Micromechanical stripping method, wherein the graphene crystal structure obtained by the method is complete, but the yield is too low, and is not suitable for large-scale production; (2) chemical vapor deposition method ( CVD), the crystal structure of graphene prepared by this method is relatively complete, and the number of layers can be controlled by control conditions, but the cost is high, the preparation process is high, and it is difficult to achieve scale production; (3) epitaxial growth method, the method can A large area of graphene is obtained, but the graphene sheet is not easy to be separated from the substrate, and the cost is high; (4) solvent stripping method, which can be obtained by mixing graphite and a part of the intercalating agent in a suitable solvent. Higher quality graphene, but this method requires long-term ultrasonic or ball milling treatment, and often the yield is not high; (5) redox method, which is the most commonly used method for preparing graphene at this stage. However, the graphene produced by this method has many defects, and the graphene has poor conductivity. Moreover, this method is difficult to achieve the number of layers control, the Chinese patent "a method for preparing high-quality graphene with controllable number of layers" (CN101993061A) achieves layer control by regulating the degree of oxidation of graphite. However, this method uses a hydrogen-argon mixed gas to reduce graphite oxide at a high temperature of 300-1000 ° C, which has problems of long reduction time, high requirements on equipment, high reaction cost, and high energy consumption.
因此,开发一种简单的,大规模制备层数可控的高质量石墨烯制备方法非常重要。为解决已报道方法存在的问题,本发明使用石墨为反应物质,通过在石墨层间可控***能储存锂离子的(化合、嵌入等)插层客体(如金属盐、金属氧化物,聚合物或单质等),形成阶数可控的石墨插层化合物(GICs);将石墨插层化合物制成电极,用作锂离子电池负 极,经过部分不可逆的电化学过程,石墨插层化合物层间的范德华力消失,转换为石墨烯,经过分散、洗涤等一系列处理,获得层数可控的石墨烯。本发明通过电化学过程使石墨的分子间作用力被破坏,不需要经过超声或者膨胀等剧烈反应过程,反应过程温和,并能精确控制石墨烯层数,得到的石墨烯片具有缺陷少,电导率高等优点,易于大规模产业化生产。Therefore, it is very important to develop a simple, large-scale preparation method for the preparation of high quality graphene with controllable number of layers. In order to solve the problems of the reported method, the present invention uses graphite as a reactive substance, through controlled insertion of a lithium ion (combination, embedding, etc.) intercalation guest (such as a metal salt, a metal oxide, a polymer) through a controlled insertion between graphite layers. Or elemental, etc., to form graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) with controllable order; graphite intercalation compounds are used as electrodes for lithium ion battery negative After a partially irreversible electrochemical process, the van der Waals force between the layers of the graphite intercalation compound disappears and is converted into graphene. After a series of treatments such as dispersion and washing, graphene with controlled layer number is obtained. The invention destroys the intermolecular force of graphite by electrochemical process, does not need to undergo a violent reaction process such as ultrasonic or expansion, has a mild reaction process, and can accurately control the number of graphene layers, and the obtained graphene sheet has few defects and conductance. High rate and other advantages, easy to large-scale industrial production.
