Abstract

The invention discloses a method for screening carbon nanotubes by spin electrophoresis, which is characterized in that the steps of the method are: (1) purifying the carbon nanotubes in a mixed solution of sulfuric acid and nitric acid; Surface modification of the purified carbon nanotubes in the surface modification tank of trimethylammonium bromide solution to make them positively charged and ultrasonically dispersed; (3) Slowly adjust the power supply voltage of the spin electrophoresis device; (4) Completely dissolve the permeable membrane with carbon nanotubes in a solvent mixed with phenol and glacial acetic acid; (5) replace the permeable membrane and repeat steps (3) and (4) until carbon nanotubes with different aspect ratios All filtered. Advantages of the present invention: effectively solve the problems of carbon nanotubes being easy to agglomerate, not easily dispersed, separated and difficult to screen, etc., can give full play to the unique properties of carbon nanotubes with uniform length-to-diameter ratio, and effectively improve the carbon nanotubes in composite materials. As the percentage content and uniform distribution of the reinforcing phase.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for screening carbon nanotubes by spin electrophoresis, belonging to the field of nanometer material science. Background technique [0002] Carbon nanotube is a one-dimensional quantum material with a special structure (the radial dimension is on the order of nanometers, and the axial dimension can reach the order of microns). It has a typical layered hollow structure. Its tube body is a quasi-circular tube. The structure is composed of hexagonal carbon ring structural units, and the end cap part is a polygonal structure composed of pentagonal and hexagonal carbon rings. Therefore, carbon nanotubes can be defined as seamless tubular substances rolled into graphene sheets. According to the number of graphene sheets that make up carbon nanotubes, carbon nanotubes can be divided into single-walled carbon nanotubes and multi-walled carbon nanotubes. . Due to their unique structure, carbon nanotubes exhibit excellent prop...
