Description
A method for preparing a super copper / carbon nanotube composite material Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a method for preparing a super copper / carbon nanotube composite material. Background Technology
[0002] Copper, with its excellent electrical conductivity and processing properties, is currently the most widely used conductive material. With the rapid development of modern industrial technology, the application of copper in key national development areas such as advanced rail transportation, new energy, agricultural machinery, and power equipment has placed higher demands on its performance. For example, cables used in aerospace need to be lightweight while maintaining constant conductivity, and the windings in the motors of new energy electric vehicles require conductors to maintain low resistivity at high temperatures, necessitating higher conductivity from copper. However, limited by fundamental material properties, the conductivity of copper has only increased by 3% over the past century. Novel carbon nanomaterials, due to their unique properties—low density and excellent mechanical and electrical properties—are often used as reinforcing phases in metal matrix composites to reduce composite density and improve overall performance. Carbon nanotubes are hollow cylindrical nanostructures, seamless cylinders formed by rolling a single layer of atomically thick graphene at specific and discrete angles. Conduction in carbon nanotubes is ballistic, with a large mean free path of electrons, resulting in extremely low resistance that is independent of length. This unique property of carbon nanotubes gives them the potential to significantly improve the performance of copper matrices.
[0003] Currently, common processes for preparing copper / carbon nanotube composites include powder metallurgy, spraying, and hot pressing sintering. However, the strengthening efficiency of the reinforcement in composites prepared using these methods falls significantly short of theoretical values. This is because the nanowire structure and chemical inertness of carbon nanotubes make them prone to aggregation. Furthermore, the poor wettability of carbon nanotubes with the copper matrix makes it difficult for them to disperse uniformly within the matrix, hindering the formation of a strong interfacial bond and resulting in low strengthening efficiency—far below theoretical predictions. Therefore, new research approaches and preparation methods are needed to achieve the fabrication of super copper / carbon nanotube composites. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention employs oxidized and exfoliated carbon nanotubes as reinforcement. A pulsed electrodeposition method is used to achieve uniform dispersion of carbon nanotubes in a copper matrix, while effectively removing oxygen-containing functional groups from the surface to maintain the structural integrity of the carbon nanotubes. Through heat treatment, rolling, and reheat treatment processes, a super copper / carbon nanotube composite material with excellent comprehensive performance is obtained.
[0005] The present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] 1. A method for preparing a super copper / carbon nanotube composite material, the specific steps of which are as follows:
[0007] (1) Preparation of oxidatively exfoliated carbon nanotube dispersion:
[0008] After adding carbon nanotubes to a mixed acid and stirring until homogeneous, potassium permanganate was added to the mixed acid in batches and stirring continued to obtain a suspension. The suspension was heated at 65-80℃ for 1-10 hours and cooled to room temperature. An ice-water mixture containing hydrogen peroxide was then poured into the suspension. Subsequently, the acid was removed by centrifugation, and the mixture was washed with hydrochloric acid to remove impurities. Finally, the complex was dispersed in deionized water and dialyzed to thoroughly purify it until the pH was neutral, resulting in an oxidized exfoliated carbon nanotube dispersion.
[0009] (2) Preparation of precursors for super copper / carbon nanotube composite materials by pulsed electrochemical deposition:
[0010] A surface-polished Ti plate was selected as the working electrode, a Cu plate as the counter electrode, and a copper sulfate solution with a pH of 1-2 as the electroplating solution. A copper substrate was prepared by pulse electrodeposition at room temperature. Subsequently, an oxide-exfoliated carbon nanotube dispersion was added to the electroplating solution to form a mixed copper sulfate electroplating solution. The electroplating solution was then ultrasonically and magnetically stirred to ensure uniform dispersion of the oxide-exfoliated carbon nanotubes in the solution. Then, using the Ti plate containing the copper substrate as the working electrode, a copper / carbon nanotube composite precursor was prepared by pulse electrodeposition. During the pulse electrodeposition process, the electroplating solution containing the oxide-exfoliated carbon nanotubes needed to be replaced multiple times.
[0011] (3) Processing and annealing of oxide-exfoliated carbon nanotube-reinforced copper-based composite materials:
[0012] The composite precursor obtained in step (2) is placed in an inert protective gas and subjected to a first annealing treatment at 300℃~500℃ (e.g., 300℃, 310℃, 320℃, 330℃, 340℃, 350℃, 360℃, 370℃, 380℃, 390℃, 400℃, 410℃, 420℃, 430℃, 440℃, 450℃, 460℃, 470℃, 480℃, 490℃ or 500℃). After cooling to room temperature, the composite material is rolled, and then a second annealing treatment is performed according to the different rolling amounts to obtain the super copper / carbon nanotube composite material.
[0013] Specifically, this invention provides a method for preparing a super copper / carbon nanotube composite material, the specific steps of which are as follows:
[0014] (1) Preparation of oxidatively exfoliated carbon nanotube dispersion:
[0015] Carbon nanotubes were added to a mixture of concentrated sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid, and stirred until homogeneous. Potassium permanganate was then slowly added to the mixture in batches, and stirring was continued for 30 minutes to obtain a suspension. The suspension was heated at 65-80℃ for 1-10 hours and cooled to room temperature. An ice-water mixture containing hydrogen peroxide was then poured into the suspension. Subsequently, inorganic acids were removed by centrifugation, and the mixture was washed with 5% dilute hydrochloric acid to remove impurities. Finally, the complex was dispersed in deionized water and dialyzed to thoroughly purify it until the pH was neutral, yielding an oxidized exfoliated carbon nanotube dispersion with a concentration of 0.5-2 mg / mL.
[0016] (2) Preparation of precursors for super copper / carbon nanotube composite materials by pulsed electrochemical deposition:
[0017] A Ti plate with a polished surface was selected as the working electrode, a Cu plate of the same size was selected as the counter electrode, and a 1 mol / L copper sulfate solution with a pH of 1-2 was selected as the electroplating solution. A copper substrate was prepared by pulse electrodeposition at room temperature for 10 minutes. Then, an oxide-exfoliated carbon nanotube dispersion was added to the electroplating solution, and the electroplating solution was ultrasonically and magnetically stirred to ensure that the oxide-exfoliated carbon nanotubes were uniformly dispersed in the solution. Subsequently, a copper / carbon nanotube composite precursor was prepared by pulse electrodeposition using the copper substrate as the working electrode.
[0018] (3) Processing and annealing of oxide-exfoliated carbon nanotube-reinforced copper-based composite materials:
[0019] The composite precursor obtained in step (2) was placed in an inert protective gas and annealed at 450°C for 1 hour. After cooling to room temperature, the surface of the composite material was polished and then rolled. The appropriate annealing temperature was selected according to the rolling amount to obtain the super copper / carbon nanotube composite material.

Potassium permanganate is added at a mass-to-volume ratio of 1:100 g / mL to 1:500 g / mL to concentrate. The carbon nanotubes are added at a mass ratio of 1:2 to 10 (for example, the mass ratio of carbon nanotubes to potassium permanganate is 1:2, 1:2.5, 1:3, 1:3.5, 1:4, 1:4.5, 1:5, 1:5.5, 1:6, 1:6.5, 1:7, 1:7.5, 1:8, 1:8.5, 1:9, 1:9.5, or 1:10).

[0031] This invention utilizes an oxidation reaction to partially open the walls of carbon nanotubes, obtaining a composite containing graphene oxide nanoribbons, semi-exfoliated carbon nanotubes, and carbon oxide nanotubes. First, the exfoliated outer wall provides oxygen-containing functional groups, resulting in excellent dispersion in aqueous systems, while the unexfoliated inner wall provides the inherent properties of the carbon nanotubes. The fully exfoliated graphene oxide nanoribbons have a larger aspect ratio, providing sufficient length to withstand greater load transfer during load transfer. Oxidative exfoliation exposes the inner walls of the carbon nanotubes, effectively overcoming the limitation that only the outer structure of the carbon nanotube is functional. Furthermore, pulsed electrodeposition has a reducing effect on the carbon nanotube composite, effectively eliminating oxygen-containing functional groups in the copper matrix, ensuring structural integrity, and further facilitating electron transport.
[0032] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0033] This invention utilizes novel oxidized exfoliated carbon nanotubes as a reinforcement and employs a pulsed electrodeposition method in a liquid phase system. This not only ensures uniform dispersion of the carbon nanotubes within the matrix, effectively increasing the contact area with the copper matrix, but also maintains the integrity of the carbon nanotube structure. After annealing-rolling-annealing processing, the structure is optimized, resulting in a composite material with superior mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties compared to existing pure copper, exhibiting exceptional overall performance. Therefore, this preparation method is novel in design, features a more rational reinforcement structure, and is simple and easy to implement, making it an important method for obtaining copper-based composite materials with superior comprehensive performance.
