Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, carbon nanotubes also have some disadvantages as templates
Due to the high degree of carbonization of the carbon nanotube template, which is both acid and alkali resistant, it is difficult to remove and needs to be heated to 400°C in the air to achieve, which often leads to the collapse of the one-dimensional structure and the agglomeration of materials.
At the same time, some metal-based compounds with poor thermal stability, such as metal hydroxide materials, are difficult to obtain by this method

Embodiment 1

[0072] (1) Preparation of carbon nanofibers: Add 10g of polyvinylpyrrolidone and 920mg of sodium tellurite into 320mL of water, stir well, then add 33.3mL of ammonia water and 16.7mL of hydrazine hydrate, stir well and transfer to 500mL of polytetrafluoroethylene In an ethylene reactor, react in an oven at 180° C. for 3 hours to obtain a tellurium nanowire dispersion. Wherein, the diameter of the tellurium nanowire is 7nm.

[0073] 10 mL of the tellurium nanowire dispersion was added to 30 mL of acetone, and centrifuged at a centrifugal speed of 8000 rpm for 4 minutes to obtain a tellurium nanowire precipitate. Then, the tellurium nanowire precipitate was dispersed in 80 mL of water, 5 g of glucose was added, transferred to a 100 mL polytetrafluoroethylene reactor, and reacted in an oven at 180 ° C for 18 h to obtain a carbon nanofiber hydrogel. The carbon nanofiber hydrogel was centrifuged and washed with ethanol, and dried in a vacuum oven at 60° C. for 12 hours to obtain 2...

Embodiment 2

[0078] Metal hydroxide nanotubes were prepared according to the method in Example 1, with the following differences: the alkali etching time was 2 hours.

[0079] Gained product is carried out transmission electron microscope analysis, the result sees Figure 5 . Compared with Example 1, it is found that the carbon nanofiber template in the middle is not completely etched, and some parts remain, which is a semi-hollow structure, and the diameter of the hollow part is about 150 nm.

Abstract

The present invention provides a metal hydroxide hollow nanotube, a preparation method thereof and the application thereof. The method comprises the following steps: A) mixing up an ultra-fine tellurium nanowire with glucose, and subjecting the mixture to hydrothermal carbonization process to obtain a carbon nano-fiber; B) mixing the carbon nano-fiber with a metal salt precursor, and subjecting the mixture to oil-bath heating reaction to obtain the carbon nano-fiber coated by the metal salt precursor; C) subjecting the metal salt precursor-coated carbon nano-fiber to alkali etching process so as to remove a carbon nano-fiber template, and obtaining a hollow metal hydroxide nanotube. The method is simple and practical, and an obtained product is high in purity. The method is low in reaction cost and is easy in large-scale popularization. When the nano-tube is applied as the electrode material of an electrochemical super capacitor, the nano-tube is very high in specific capacitance property and superior to reported values in most literatures. Therefore, the nano-tube is expected to be applied to the field of electrochemical super capacitors.
