Embodiment 1

[0022] Put 0.01g of multi-walled carbon nanotubes with a diameter of 8-15nm into the bottom of a polytetrafluoroethylene inner substrate with a volume of 20mL, add 100μL of distilled water into it, oscillate to spread the nanotubes evenly, and then seal the inner liner into the Stainless steel reactor. Put the reaction kettle into a blast drying oven, set the temperature to 200°C, and react at a constant temperature for 5 hours. After the reaction, the sample is taken out, dried under an infrared lamp, and the graphene nanobelt can be obtained after the water evaporates completely.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing grapheme nano belts by etching carbon nano tubes through water vapor. The method comprises the steps of putting multi-wall carbon nano tubes into a polyfluortetraethylene inner liner, adding a certain amount of distilled water into the inner liner, vibrating to ensure that the nano tubes are uniformly dispersed, then putting the polyfluortetraethylene inner liner into a reaction kettle, heating to 150 to 225 DEG C, keeping constant temperature for 5 to 20 h, so as to ensure that the multi-wall carbon nano tubes are longitudinally cracked to form high-quality grapheme nano belts. The grapheme nano belts prepared through the method have the advantages of less folds, uneasiness in aggregation, controllable number of layers, high yield and the like, at the same time, the preparation process is simple and easy to operate and can be accomplished at one step, a surface active agent is not required to be adopted for dispersing, and the process ispollution-free and environmental-friendly. The method overcomes the disadvantages of complex process, severe pollution, low yield and the like during the grapheme preparation through other methods.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of graphene preparation, and in particular relates to a method for preparing graphene nanoribbons by etching carbon nanotubes with water vapor, which is a simple, green and environment-friendly preparation method. Background technique [0002] Graphene nanoribbons are a new type of material with unique electronic properties. In recent years, graphene has attracted widespread attention, and its peculiar physical and chemical properties have aroused people's great interest. As a kind of graphene material, graphene nanoribbons have great applications in field effect transistors because of their smooth edges, small width, and wide energy band gap. There are many methods for preparing graphene nanoribbons reported in recent years, such as redox method, ultrasonic method, cracking carbon tube method, etc. Among them, the cracking carbon tube method stands out among many methods because it can control the width and number ...
