Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of material preparation and detection, and in particular to a graphene oxide flow exfoliation and closed-loop control system and method driven by an ultrasonic phased array. Background Art

[0002] Efficient exfoliation of graphene oxide and precise layer control are key processes for preparing high-quality graphene-based materials. Traditional exfoliation technologies mainly rely on mechanical shearing, chemical intercalation or ultrasonic cavitation effects, among which the ultrasonic method is widely used due to its simple operation and low cost. However, the existing ultrasonic exfoliation process has technical bottlenecks such as thermal damage, detection lag, and inefficient sorting: when conventional ultrasonic probes generate high-intensity sound fields in liquids, they are prone to cause local overheating (thermal aggregation effect), leading to oxidation of graphene sheets or structural defects. At the same time, the static batch processing mode is difficult to achieve continuous production, and the ultrasonic energy distribution is uneven, making it difficult to balance exfoliation efficiency and product uniformity. Current layer number detection mainly relies on atomic force microscopy (AFM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) or offline Raman spectroscopy, which requires interrupting the production process for sampling, drying and fixation. This type of offline detection cannot provide real-time feedback on the layer number distribution, resulting in delayed adjustment of process parameters and difficulty in dynamically optimizing the exfoliation process. Traditional processes lack an effective sorting mechanism for incompletely exfoliated multilayer graphene, and usually require post-processing by centrifugation or filtration. However, such methods have problems such as large yield loss and high energy consumption, and cannot achieve in-situ re-exfoliation.

[0003] Currently, patent number CN117949428A discloses a technology that uses microfluidic chips and Raman detection technology for multi-factor SERS detection of lung cancer autoantibodies, while ultrasonic phased arrays are mainly used in cleaning (CN119793986A) and detection (CN119846067A) and other fields, and are less used in graphene oxide exfoliation.

[0004] The present invention integrates ultrasonic phased array multi-focus scanning technology, microfluidic-Raman in-situ detection technology and closed-loop feedback control algorithm to construct an integrated "stripping-detection-reprocessing" system, overcoming the problems of thermal aggregation, detection lag and inefficient sorting in traditional processes, and providing innovative technical support for the continuous preparation of highly consistent graphene. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings, the present invention provides an ultrasonic phased array-driven graphene oxide flow exfoliation and closed-loop control system and method. The ultrasonic phased array-driven graphene oxide flow exfoliation and closed-loop control system and method of the present invention have the advantages of efficient exfoliation, precise detection, closed-loop optimization, etc.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides an ultrasonic phased array driven graphene oxide flow exfoliation and closed-loop control system, comprising an ultrasonic phased array module, a microfluidic-Raman detection module and a feedback control module, a flow channel, a diverter valve, and a secondary processing channel;

[0007] An ultrasonic phased array module includes a piezoelectric transducer array element and a phase delay controller; a graphite oxide dispersion is built into the flow channel; the piezoelectric transducer array element controls the focusing and energy distribution of the acoustic beam through the phase delay controller and exfoliates the graphite oxide flowing in the flow channel;

[0008] A microfluidic-Raman detection module comprises a microfluidic chip, a Raman spectrometer, and a signal analysis unit; the microfluidic chip is provided with a serpentine sorting channel, and the microfluidic chip is provided with a detection window; the optical path of the Raman spectrometer is aligned with the detection window; the Raman spectrometer collects characteristic peak data of the graphene oxide layer in the serpentine sorting channel in real time and sends it to the signal analysis unit; wherein the flow channel is connected to the serpentine sorting channel of the microfluidic chip;

[0010] It should be noted that the function of the flow channel of the present invention is to allow the dispersion containing graphite oxide to flow, thereby taking away heat and preventing the heat accumulation effect during the stripping process.

[0011] It should be noted that the serpentine sorting channel of the microfluidic chip of the present application provides a laminar flow effect to guide the graphene sheets to pass through the laser focusing area in a directional manner, collect Raman signals in real time and invert the layer number distribution.

[0012] It should be noted that the microfluidic-Raman detection module of this application is a sampling module, while the flow channel + ultrasonic phased array module is a production module. When the microfluidic-Raman detection module detects that the batch of products is qualified, the batch of products is discharged from the outlet through the diverter valve. When the microfluidic-Raman detection module detects that the batch of products is unqualified, the batch of products enters the secondary processing channel through the diverter valve and then re-enters the flow channel. At the same time, the piezoelectric transducer array elements are adjusted to change the number of focal spots and pulse width for re-stripping.

[0013] Based on the same inventive concept, the present invention also provides a method for graphene oxide flow exfoliation and closed-loop control based on an ultrasonic phased array driven graphene oxide flow exfoliation and closed-loop control system, comprising the following steps:

[0014] S1. Injecting a graphite oxide dispersion into a flow channel, and starting an ultrasonic phased array module to apply shear force to the graphite oxide flowing in the flow channel for exfoliation, thereby obtaining an exfoliated dispersion;

[0016] S3. The feedback control module outputs qualified products or re-introduces unqualified products into the flow channel according to the single-layer rate of the layer distribution.

[0017] According to one aspect of the present invention, the piezoelectric transducer array element controls the focusing of the acoustic beam through the phase delay controller to perform multi-focus acoustic field shear force exfoliation of graphite oxide.

[0018] According to one aspect of the present invention, if the single-layer rate of the layer distribution is lower than the threshold, the number of focal points or pulse width of the phase delay controller is adjusted, and the diverter valve is opened to re-introduce the substandard products into the flow channel; otherwise, the qualified products are output from the outlet.

[0021] According to one aspect of the present invention, the width of the serpentine sorting channel of the microfluidic chip is 0.1-2000 μm.

[0022] According to one aspect of the present invention, the width of the serpentine sorting channel of the microfluidic chip is 50-200 μm.

[0023] According to one aspect of the present invention, the surface of the detection window is coated with an anti-reflection film, and the laser focus spot diameter of the Raman spectrometer is ≤5 μm.

[0024] According to one aspect of the present invention, the feedback control module adopts a fuzzy proportional-integral-differential control algorithm to calculate the ultrasonic energy adjustment amount in real time according to the single layer rate deviation value, and its control period is ≤1s.

[0025] According to one aspect of the present invention, the threshold of the monolayer rate is 85%. When it is detected that the monolayer rate is lower than the threshold, the number of focal points of the ultrasonic phased array module is increased by 10%-80%, and the pulse width is shortened to 20%-80% of the initial pulse width, and the initial pulse width is 20-100 μs.

[0026] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0027] The present invention uses the dynamic phase delay of the multi-element transducer array of an ultrasonic phased array module to control the acoustic beam focus and energy distribution, combined with flow channels to achieve efficient and uniform exfoliation of graphene sheets. A Raman spectroscopy detection window is integrated within the microfluidic chip, leveraging the laminar flow effect to guide the graphene sheets through the laser focus area. Raman signals (G peak to 2D peak intensity ratio, peak shift) are collected in real time and the layer distribution is inverted. Ultrasonic parameters (frequency, number of focal spots, pulse width) are dynamically adjusted based on the detection results, and a diverter valve is used to direct substandard products back to the secondary ultrasonic enhancement zone for cyclic processing. This approach achieves efficient exfoliation, precise detection, and closed-loop optimization. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
