Abstract

The invention relates to a carbon nano-tube purification method in the technical field of material purification. The carbon nano-tube purification method comprises the following steps: preparing a to-be-purified carbon nano-tube into an electric heating element and connecting with the inside of a pulse circuit; powering on and heating the electric heating element under vacuum and introducing chlorine gas until metals and metallic oxides on the surface the carbon nano-tube in the electric heating element react with the chlorine gas to produce a high-purity carbon nano-tube by gasification; introducing inert gas, removing mixed gases including metallic chloride gas until the high-purity carbon nano-tube is in an inert gas protection state, cooling the high-purity carbon nano-tube and finishing the purification of the carbon nano-tube. The carbon nano-tube purification method provided by the invention has the beneficial effects that the purification efficiency of the carbon nano-tube canbe improved, and the energy consumption and the pollution are reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a technique in the field of material purification, in particular to a method for purifying carbon nanotubes. Background technique [0002] During the synthesis of carbon nanotubes, metal catalysts such as iron, cobalt, and nickel, and catalyst supports such as magnesium oxide, aluminum oxide, and silicon oxide are used. Traditional purification methods, such as high-temperature graphitization and acid washing, are difficult, costly, and inefficient, making it difficult to rapidly produce high-purity carbon nanotubes. Contents of the invention [0003] Aiming at the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention proposes a method for purifying carbon nanotubes, which can improve the purification efficiency of carbon nanotubes and reduce energy consumption and pollution. [0004] The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions: [0005] The present invention includes: [0006...
