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.

[0041] First, take 50 grams of anthracite coarse powder and mix it with 10 grams of melamine, 6.5 grams of nickel chloride (containing 3 grams of metallic nickel ions) and 25 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 800° 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 clustered carbon nanotube powder with a diameter of about 40-50 nanometers can be obtained.

[0044]First, take the mixture of 100 grams of coking coal and lignite, mix it with 25 grams of melamine, a total of 31.4 grams of cobalt nitrate and nickel nitrate (containing a total of 10 grams of metallic cobalt ions and nickel 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 600° C. for 4 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 clustered carbon nanotube powder with a diameter of about 60-80 nanometers can be obtained.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing carbon nanotubes from coal. The powdered coal is mixed with water, melamine and soluble cobalt salt or nickel salt, and then wet-milled by a high-energy ball mill to obtain a slurry mixture. After the mixture is freeze-dried A porous mass is obtained. The block is placed in a high-temperature atmosphere furnace and sintered in a hydrogen / argon mixed atmosphere to prepare clustered carbon nanotubes. Finally, purer carbon nanotubes are obtained by acid washing and water washing. The present invention uses natural coal as a raw material, does not need to carry out pretreatment on coal, has low selectivity to coal types, high yield, and the diameter of prepared carbon nanotubes is between 40-100 nanometers, and the diameter of carbon tubes is evenly distributed; and the preparation process is simple , the process is simplified, the equipment requirement is low, the cost is low, and it is easy to realize industrialized production. It has huge market demand and broad application prospects in the fields of lithium-ion batteries, supercapacitors, nanocatalysis, biomedicine, and environmental protection.
