The invention discloses a method for continuously preparing a chiral enriched single-walled
carbon nanotube by adopting a
fluidized bed, and belongs to the technical field of carbon nanotubes. The method comprises the following steps: preparing a fluidized catalyst by a
sol-
gel method, mixing a
metal catalyst salt, an inorganic
sol carrier, a pore-forming template agent and an
electrolyte gel to form gel, and
drying and annealing to form the fluidized catalyst with the particle size of 50-200 microns and rich mesopores; the method comprises the following steps: reducing and activating a catalyst in a pretreatment reactor, introducing into a main reactor, introducing a
carbon source gas and a carrier gas, and
cracking and depositing a
carbon source at an
active center of the catalyst to grow a single-walled
carbon nanotube; after the growth is finished, increasing the carrier gas flow and conveying a product to a cooling separator for collection; and after the main reactor is empty, the next batch of catalyst can be introduced without cooling to realize continuous preparation. According to the method, the catalyst
metal is uniformly dispersed, the
fluidization performance is excellent, the growth of multi-wall and large-
diameter carbon nanotubes can be effectively inhibited, and the efficient and continuous preparation of the chiral enriched single-wall carbon nanotubes is realized.
