Embodiment 1

[0038] First, take 100 grams of long-flame coal coarse powder and mix it with 25 grams of melamine, 11 grams of cobalt chloride (containing 5 grams of metallic cobalt ions) and 50 grams of water to obtain mixture A. Put mixture A in a ball mill jar, and add metal steel balls for high-energy ball milling until uniformly dispersed slurry mixture B is obtained. After the mixture B is placed in a freeze dryer for freeze drying, the porous block C can be obtained. The block C is placed in a high-temperature atmosphere furnace, mixed with hydrogen and argon gas containing 5% hydrogen, and heated at 1100° C. for 2 hours to prepare clustered carbon nanotubes. Further purification can be carried out by multiple times of acid washing and water washing, and after centrifugation and drying, a cluster-like carbon nanotube powder with a diameter of 60-100 nanometers can be obtained.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing carbon nanotubes from coal. The method comprises the steps that pulverized coal is mixed with water, melamine and a soluble cobalt salt or a nickel salt,then a high-energy ball mill is utilized for wet milling to obtain a slurry-like mixture, and after the mixture is subjected to freeze drying, a porous blocky material is obtained; the blocky material is placed in a high-temperature atmosphere furnace to be sintered in a hydrogen/argon mixed atmosphere, and thus the clustered carbon nanotubes can be prepared; and finally, the pure carbon nanotubes are obtained through pickling and washing with water. The natural coal is utilized as the raw material, the coal does not need to be pre-treated, selectivity to the coal type is low, the yield is high, the diameters of the prepared carbon nanotubes are 40 nm to 100 nm, and the diameters of the carbon tubes are evenly distributed; and the preparation process is simple, a technology is simplified,the equipment requirements are low, the cost is low, and industrial production is easy to realize. The carbon nanotubes have great market demands and broad application prospects in the fields of lithium-ion batteries, super capacitors, nano catalysis, biomedicine, environmental protection and the like.
