Abstract

The invention relates to the field of single-wall carbon nanotubes, and specifically, relates to a method for high-efficiency purification of single-wall carbon nanotubes prepared by chemical vapor deposition. The method has high efficiency, is simple and is suitable for industrialization. The method comprises the following steps of uniformly placing single-wall carbon nanotubes prepared by chemical vapor deposition in a horizontal heating furnace, carrying out oxidation in an air atmosphere at an amorphous carbon rapid oxidation temperature for 5 to 20 hours, immersing the oxidized single-wall carbon nanotubes in a hydrochloric acid solution to remove catalyst particles, cleaning the single-wall carbon nanotubes treated by the previous step by deionized water multiple times, and drying to obtain a purified single-wall carbon nanotube sample. The method is simple, is suitable for large-scale industrialized production and purification of single-wall carbon nanotubes or multi-wall carbon nanotubes prepared by chemical vapor deposition, and has important industrial application prospects. The method can determine a sample oxidation temperature through a thermogravimetric / differential thermal analysis experiment and thus solving the problem that because carbon nanotubes prepared by the existing chemical vapor deposition under different conditions and carbon nanotubes which have different production batch numbers and are prepared under the same conditions are different in inoxidizability, purification purity and a yield cannot be controlled accurately.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of single-wall carbon nanotubes, in particular to an efficient, simple and industrializable purification method for single-wall carbon nanotubes prepared by chemical vapor deposition. Background technique [0002] Since their discovery in 1993, single-walled carbon nanotubes have unique physical and chemical properties and excellent electrical and mechanical properties due to their unique structure. They have broad application prospects in the fields of nanoelectronic components, field emission, and composite materials. All these attractive application prospects are based on the premise of obtaining high-purity, large-scale, and cheap single-walled carbon nanotubes. Among the three traditional methods for preparing single-walled carbon nanotubes (chemical vapor deposition, arc method, and laser evaporation method), chemical vapor deposition is favored by people because of its simplicity, large amount, low cost and sca...
