Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of copper sulfide nanomaterials, and particularly relates to a preparation method of copper sulfide nanomaterials. BACKGROUND

[0002] Bacterial infection is an acute systemic infection caused by pathogenic bacteria or conditional pathogenic bacteria invading the blood circulation to grow and reproduce, producing toxins and other metabolites. Clinically, antibiotics are mainly used for treatment. However, the overuse of antibiotics has resulted in drug resistance in many bacteria. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find effective alternative strategies to combat drug-resistant bacteria. In recent years, with the development of nanotechnology, nanomaterials have attracted more and more attention from researchers in various fields.

[0003] Copper sulfide is an inorganic compound, which is a sulfide of divalent copper with the chemical formula CuS and is black-brown. In addition to these basic advantages such as low cost and good biocompatibility, it has strong and wide absorption in the near-infrared region, making it have the potential of a photoresponsive nanocatalyst. In addition, copper-based materials mediated Fenton reaction can also be applied to antibiosis, so it has become the focus of many scholars.

[0004] There are many methods for synthesizing copper sulfide nanomaterials, such as hydrothermal method, wet chemical synthesis method, microwave method, etc. Taking the most classic hydrothermal method as an example, the hydrothermal method uses a high-pressure hydrothermal reactor, the reaction time is long, the synthesis process is complex, the cost is high, it is not easy to control, and the synthesized nanomaterials have uneven particle size and poor stability. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a kind of copper sulfide nanosphere material which can be quickly prepared, has uniform particle size, beautiful appearance, good photothermal stability and chemical power. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application aims to solve the problems of complex synthesis process, uneven nanometer particle size, poor stability, and high cost in the prior art. A preparation method of copper sulfide nanomaterials is provided. The method uses a template method to first prepare a sodium polyacrylate ball template, then adds copper salt, and then adds thioacetamide or sodium thiosulfate in a 60-80℃ water bath, to form relatively uniform spherical nanoparticles on the sodium polyacrylate ball template. The present application has the advantages of mild reaction conditions, fast preparation, uniform particle size, beautiful appearance, and good photothermal stability.

[0006] The technical scheme of the present application is as follows:

[0007] A preparation method of copper sulfide nanomaterials, the method comprising the following steps:

[0008] Step one, dissolve sodium polyacrylate in deionized water, stir for 20-30 minutes, and add isopropyl alcohol dropwise to obtain a sodium polyacrylate ball solution;

[0009] The mass ratio of the sodium polyacrylate to the isopropyl alcohol is 1:(320-470).

[0010] Step two: the copper salt is completely dissolved in water, and then added into the sodium polyacrylate ball solution obtained in step one, and stirred immediately to mix uniformly, the reaction time is 12-15 hours, a blue solution is obtained, and then centrifuged and washed with deionized water to obtain PAAS / Cu(OH)2 NPs;

[0011] The mass ratio of the sodium polyacrylate to the copper salt is 1:(0.5-6).

[0012] Step three: the PAAS / Cu(OH)2 NPs obtained in step two are dispersed in deionized water, and a sulfur source is added, and then reacted in a constant temperature water bath at 60-80°C for 30-60 minutes to obtain copper sulfide nanomaterials.

[0013] The molar ratio of the copper salt to the sulfur source is 100:(1-10).

[0014] Further, step four: the solution containing the copper sulfide nanomaterials obtained in step three is centrifuged, washed and dried.

[0015] In step one, the volume ratio of the deionized water to the isopropyl alcohol is 1:(4-8).

[0016] In step two, the copper salt is one of copper nitrate, copper chloride or copper sulfate.

[0017] In step three, the sulfur source is sodium thiosulfate or thioacetamide.

[0018] Further, the prepared copper sulfide nanomaterials are spherical, and the particle size is about 345-355 nm.

[0019] The present application has the following advantages:

[0020] The present application uses a template method to synthesize copper sulfide nanoparticles on a sodium polyacrylate ball template. The sodium polyacrylate ball is negatively charged, and the copper salt is positively charged, and the two are combined through electrostatic adsorption, and a sulfur source is added for sulfidation. The synthesized nanoparticle material has uniform particle size and spherical morphology. Since the copper ions can be coordinated with the carboxyl groups on the sodium polyacrylate ball, the copper ion coordination compound formed by this coordination can still provide a stable chemical site, so that the copper ions and the sulfur dianion continue to react to form copper sulfide nanoparticles. After the copper sulfide nanoparticles are continuously subjected to four cycles of near-infrared laser on / off irradiation, the temperature rise does not change significantly, indicating that the product has good stability. The synthesized copper sulfide nanoparticles are used for methylene blue degradation experiments, and the absorbance value at 665 nm gradually decreases with time, indicating that the product has methylene blue degradation ability. The reaction conditions of the present application are mild, simple and easy to control, and the reaction time is short. Attached Figure Description
