Abstract

The invention relates to a biomimetic material technology, and in particular relates to a carbon nanotube-based biomimetic material with a micro-nano branch structure and a preparation method for the same. The material comprises a carbon nanotube array formed by combining carbon nanotubes with a high-molecular material, wherein the top end of the array is the nanoscale carbon nanotubes, the root of the array is the carbon nanotubes surrounded by the high-molecular material, a microscale composite structure formed by the interpenetration of the high-molecular material and the carbon nanotubes is arranged between the root and the top end, and the diameter of the microscale composite structure is gradually reduced to nanoscale from microscale; and the high-molecular material is a high-molecular polymer with a thermocuring characteristic or a photocuring characteristic. The preparation method comprises the following steps of preparing a carbon nanotube array on a monocrystal Si substrate, then covering a high-molecular material liquid on the top end of the carbon nanotube array, and then completely curing the high-molecular material by virtue of heating or illumination; and finally removing the high-molecular material to obtain the carbon nanotube-based biomimetic material with the micro-nano branch structure. The material is capable of effectively overcoming a structural damage problem caused by the bending deformation of the carbon nanotubes during an adhesion process.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to bionic material technology, and also to the field of bionic robot technology, in particular to a carbon nanotube-based bionic dry adhesive material with a micro-nano branch structure and a preparation method thereof. Background technique: [0002] After years of research, scientific and technical personnel have found that geckos can easily crawl on vertical walls, ceilings and various surfaces. Surface contact produces approximately 10N / cm 2 of adhesion. In 2000, Autumn and Full et al. reported on page 681 of volume 405 of Nature that the special adhesive force on gecko toes mainly comes from the accumulation of van der Waals forces produced by the bristle array on the toes. Gecko toe setae have a cross-scale micro-nano branch structure: the micron-scale setae at the root undergo multi-level bifurcations and finally form the nanostructure at the top. The nanostructure at the top can provide more contact points, which grea...
