Problems solved by technology

However, the further application of carbon nanotubes is hindered due to the strong van der Waals force (~950 mev / nm) between carbon nanotubes to form large tube bundles (Thess, A.; Lee, R.; Nikolaev, P. ; Dai, H.J.; Petit, P.; Robert, J.; Xu, C.H.; Lee, Y.H.; Kim, S.G.; R.E.Science 1996, 273, 483)
[0003] In order to solve the thorny problem of carbon nanotube dispersion, researchers from various countries have proposed a variety of covalent functionalization and non-covalent functionalization methods in order to effectively solve the difficult problem of carbon nanotube dispersion (H.Wang, W.Zhou , D.L.Ho, K.I.Winey, J.E.Fischer, C.J.Glinka, E.K.Hobbie, Nano Lett. 2004, 4, 1789; V.C.Moore, M.S.Strano, E.H.Haroz, R.H.Hauge, R.E.Smalley, J.Schmidt, Y.Talmon, Nano Lett .2003, 3, 1379) However, dispersing carbon nanotubes through the method of covalent functionalization will destroy the structure of carbon nanotubes and affect its performance, which is not conducive to practical production and application (Z.Yao, N.Braidy , G.A.Botton, A.Adronov, J.Am.Chem.Soc.2003, 125, 16015) common non-covalent functionalization methods usually require long-time ultrasound, and the efficiency is low; due to the long-time ultrasound destroys the structure of carbon nanotubes , thus affecting the performance of carbon nanotubes in all aspects
In addition, the addition of dispersant will also affect the application of carbon nanotube solution
Therefore, the lack of effective methods and technologies to monodisperse carbon nanotubes in a variety of solutions has also hindered the further application of carbon nanotubes.

Embodiment 1

[0030] The concentration of 1.2g carbon nanotubes in 250mL is 2.6mol / L HNO 3 solution, reflux at 140°C for 24 hours, then filter with suction, wash with water three times, and dry at 120°C for 24 hours. 0.1 g of acidified carbon nanotubes was taken out, and ultrasonically dispersed in 200 mL of 0.5 wt % tetramethylammonium hydroxide solution. 0.1 g of FePt nanoparticles was added to 200 mL of 0.5 wt % tetramethylammonium hydroxide solution ( FIG. 1 ), and ultrasonicated for 30 minutes. The above two solutions were mixed, sonicated for 30 minutes, and then stirred at room temperature for 12 hours. The obtained carbon nanotube dispersion solution (Fig. 3 and Fig. 4) can exist stably for more than 4 months, and the diameter of the carbon nanotube bundles is 2-3 nm (2-3 carbon nanotubes / bundle). The mass ratio of FePt nanoparticles to carbon nanotubes was changed to 2:1, 5:1, 10:1, 20:1 and the above process steps were repeated, and the obtained carbon nanotube dispersion soluti...

The above two solutions were mixed, sonicated for 60 minutes and then stirred at room temperature for 72 hours. The diameter of the carbon nanotube bundles in the obtained carbon nanotube dispersion solution was 15 nm (about 15 carbon nanotubes / bundle).

Abstract

The invention relates to a detracting CNT method by adopting Nami grains infiltration technology, which is characterized in that: the nanometer grain comprises FePt, Pt, Au, Fe3O4, TiO2, CeO2, Fe2O3 and so on, adopts the method of ultrasound firstly and then combination by stirring, distracting CNT in neutral or alkalinity solution by the technology of electriferous Nami grains infiltration technology, which doesn't need dispersant and add extra polymer to decorate CNT to proceed distracting. With adopting the technology of Nami grains infiltration, the CNT can reach even distribution effect. After distracting, the Nami grains in the solution can be removed by the method of filtering, applying magnetic fields,etc. The supplied method is simple and easy to operate, the short-lived ultrasound time prevents the damage to the structure of CNT caused by long time ultrasound, therefore is beneficial for the CNT expressing special performances in all factors during industrial production.
