Problems solved by technology

Obviously, this process is not conducive to the large-scale preparation of micro-nano composite fibers. At the same time, it is difficult to uniformly disperse the catalyst particles to any position of the fiber due to the deposition or evaporation of catalyst particles, resulting in uneven growth of carbon nanotubes on the fiber surface.

Abstract

The method provides a method for in-situ growing carbon nanotubes on fiber surfaces, namely a method for directly growing carbon nanotubes on surfaces of fibers (carbon fibers, glass fibers, silicon carbide fibers, alumina fibers, high silica fibers, mullite fibers and the like). In the method, normal hexane, hexane, benzene, toluene, dimethylbenzene, ethanol or acetone is used as a carbon source, ferrocene is used as a catalyst, a sulfur compound such as sulfur, thiophene and the like are used as an accelerator, and hydrogen, argon, nitrogen, helium or the mixture of hydrogen, inert gas and the like is used as carrier gas, a horizontal reacting furnace device is used to direct grow the carbon nanotubes on the fiber surfaces under the conditions that the temperature ranges from 600 DEG C to 1000 DEG C and the carrier gas flow velocity is 10-2000ml / min. The method has the following advantage: the carbon nanotubes are directly grown on the fiber surfaces without depositing catalyst particles on the fiber surfaces in advance, which is beneficial to the large-scale growth of the carbon nanotubes on the surfaces of the fiber fabrics.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a production process for directly growing carbon nanotubes on the fiber surface, and belongs to the field of micro-nano composite fiber preparation. Background technique [0002] Carbon nanotubes (Carbon Nanotube, CNT) have ultra-high mechanical, electrical and thermal properties due to their unique geometric structure and electronic band structure. The tensile strength of the multi-walled carbon nanotubes is measured to be over 100GPa, the Young's modulus is over 1.0TPa, and the maximum elongation can reach 10-12%. In addition, the conductivity of carbon nanotubes is as high as 10 5 Scm -1 , 1000 times that of carbon fiber. The thermal conductivity of carbon nanotubes is as high as 3000Wm -1 K -1 , making it an excellent thermal conductor. The thermal stability of carbon nanotubes in air (basically not oxidized below 500°C in air) makes it an excellent flame retardant (Flame Retardant) material. [0003] In recent years...
