Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the prior art, the liquid carbon source / catalyst supply device for preparing carbon nanotube fibers based on the floating catalytic CVD method mainly includes two types: 1) directly inject the liquid carbon source / catalyst solution into one end of the high-temperature growth furnace, and carry out the process through the thermal radiation of the growth area. Gasification; 2) Ultrasonic atomization is used to assist sample injection. The ultrasonic atomization nozzle is located at one end of the growth furnace, and the liquid carbon source / catalyst solution can be atomized into micron-scale droplets first, and the droplets are radiated by the thermal radiation of the growth area to complete the process. gasification process; however, if the liquid carbon source / catalyst solution is directly injected into one end of the high-temperature growth furnace, since the liquid carbon source / catalyst is dripped into the high-temperature area for evaporation, and the evaporation process of the droplets is not continuous and uniform, so As a result, the supply of carbon source and catalyst is not uniform and continuous; in addition, when ultrasonic atomization is used to assist sampling, the liquid carbon source / catalyst is first atomized into micron droplets by the ultrasonic atomization device, and then enters the high temperature zone for gasification , in the ultrasonic atomization process, due to the heating effect of ultrasound, it is easy to form bubbles in the liquid, especially the commonly used low-boiling point carbon sources such as ethanol and acetone, which will cause intermittent pauses in the ultrasonic atomization process, resulting in carbon sources and The supply of catalyst is unstable, which will eventually affect the continuity and uniformity of the prepared carbon nanotube fibers
