TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a device and a method for preparing graphene, and in particular to a device and a method for preparing graphene with improved stability and consistency. BACKGROUND
[0002] Since its discovery in 2004, graphene has attracted much attention as a new type of carbon material. It is a quasi-two-dimensional crystal material composed of sp 2 hybridized carbon atoms with a thickness of only one or a few atomic layers, and has excellent properties such as high light transmittance and electrical conductivity, high specific surface area, high strength, and flexibility, and is expected to be widely used in high-performance nanoelectronic devices, optoelectronic devices, gas sensors, composite materials, field emission materials, and energy storage. At present, there are many methods for preparing graphene, among which the oxidation-reduction method, liquid phase exfoliation method, and mechanical exfoliation method are the main methods, and the electrochemical method has also been widely used in recent years due to its simple preparation process, low energy consumption, low cost, and easy industrialization.
[0003] Chinese Patent No. CN106544690A discloses an electrolytic reaction device for preparing graphene, which comprises an electrolytic tank, a graphite plate, a feeding mechanism, and a graphite paper supporting mechanism. The feeding mechanism comprises a compression roller and a graphite conductive roller connected to the positive terminal of a power source through a carbon brush. The compression roller and the graphite conductive roller are symmetrically arranged above the electrolytic tank. The graphite paper supporting mechanism is fixed above the feeding mechanism. The graphite plate is arranged as a negative electrode in the electrolytic tank.
[0004] Chinese Patent No. CN111470499A relates to a method for preparing graphene, which comprises the following steps: preparing a graphite material into an electrode; preparing an ammonium salt into an electrolyte; first pretreating the electrode under an applied voltage, then adding ammonia water, and performing electrolytic exfoliation of the graphite positive electrode at a certain temperature; and then performing solid-liquid separation and drying of the electrolytic product to obtain graphene of different qualities.
[0005] Chinese Patent No. CN115159515A discloses a device and method for continuously preparing graphene oxide, which comprises a transmission mechanism and an electrolytic tank, including a pre-intercalation electrolytic tank and an exfoliation electrolytic tank, respectively used for pre-intercalation treatment and exfoliation treatment of graphite materials. The pre-intercalation electrolytic tank and the exfoliation electrolytic tank are respectively provided with a pre-intercalation electrode and an exfoliation electrode, which are connected to the negative electrode of a power source. The graphite material is connected to the positive electrode of the power source.
[0006] It can be seen that the device and process for stripping graphene by electrochemical method have become more and more mature, but there is no stable and consistent product on sale in the industry at present. The stability and consistency of production are important evaluation standards for electrochemical graphene at present. It is also one of the important indicators of high-quality graphene that the industry is constantly pursuing.
[0007] At present, the batch production of electrochemical graphene products is difficult, although there are many related patents or papers, but there is no clear product sales in the market. This is mainly because the size of the graphene sheet obtained by the traditional electrochemical stripping method is poor. In the laboratory level preparation process, many preparation conditions and details are not paid attention to, including the consistency of intercalation and stripping conditions, the fine control of power supply conditions, the temperature control of electrolyte and the timely discharge of graphite crude material, etc. At present, there is a lack of a systematic structural design and supporting process to meet the above needs and obtain high-quality graphene products with good consistency. In addition, material accumulation and thermal runaway during continuous production have always been another problem faced by the large-scale preparation of electrochemical graphene. At present, there is no related work to investigate this problem, and the related structural design is also very lacking. SUMMARY
