Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of nanomaterial synthesis technology, specifically relating to a method for constructing nanomaterials based on a multi-component nitrite eutectic salt system. Background Technology
[0002] Nanomaterials encompass a range of emerging materials with microscopic dimensions at the nanoscale. Due to their extremely high surface atomic ratio and unique band structures at the nanoscale, nanomaterials often exhibit highly specialized physicochemical effects, including thermal, magnetic, optical, and catalytic properties. Therefore, nanomaterials are widely used in the electronics and computer industries, novel chemical processes, environmental protection, medicine, and many everyday applications. However, due to the unique and diverse structures of nanomaterials, current research remains limited by the complexity of their construction processes, low purity, and unclear synthesis mechanisms. Therefore, researching novel nanomaterial construction methods that are versatile, easy to operate, and produce controllable results is of great significance.
[0003] Molten salt synthesis, as a non-aqueous nanomaterial synthesis method, boasts advantages such as simple operation, high product purity, wide applicability, and diverse and controllable synthesis parameters, providing a novel research platform distinct from traditional nanomaterial synthesis methods. Molten salt synthesis typically uses several eutectic salts as high-temperature solvents, combining multiple steps such as precipitation-calcination in traditional methods into a single step. By directly introducing reactant precursors and initiators into the system, various nanostructures can be calcined. Furthermore, by adjusting various molten salt components and introducing reaction aids, the reaction rate, chemical environment, mass transfer behavior, and reactant compatibility during nanomaterial formation can be controlled, thereby achieving the construction of a wide range of tunable nanocrystalline structures and providing important insights for nanomaterial synthesis.
[0004] Current molten salt synthesis techniques for nanocrystals often employ sodium chloride-potassium chloride molten salt systems with high operating temperatures or nitrate molten salt systems with limited nanocrystal nucleation rates. The high operating temperatures of these molten salt systems, or the use of easily explosive components, increase the operational difficulty in practical applications. Furthermore, the reaction mechanisms of these molten salt systems are not yet fully understood, and the means of controlling the chemical reactions are very limited, restricting their application in the synthesis of multi-component nanocrystals. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the problems existing in the synthesis of nanomaterials using existing molten salt systems, this invention provides a method for constructing nanomaterials based on a multi-component nitrite eutectic salt system.

This method offers advantages such as rapid and simultaneous nucleation of different metal salt precursors, controllable target product size, and direct synthesis of easily oxidizable phases, which are of great significance for their potential applications in various fields.
[0006] The technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows: A method for constructing nanomaterials based on a multi-component nitrite eutectic salt system involves placing sodium nitrite and potassium nitrite in an air muffle furnace and preheating them into molten salt; dissolving at least one metal salt in a solvent to obtain a precursor solution, mixing it with the molten salt to react, and then, after heat preservation, cooling, and washing, obtaining nanomaterials corresponding to the metal salt.

[0012] Furthermore, the solvent should fully dissolve the metal salt, and its solubility should be as high as possible.

[0018] Furthermore, the mass ratio of the metal salt to the molten salt is 1~8:100.
[0019] Furthermore, when the nanomaterial is platinum, rhodium, or iridium, the heat preservation time is 90-180 minutes.
[0020] Furthermore, the preheating time is 30 to 90 minutes.

[0023] A method for constructing nanomaterials based on a multi-component nitrite eutectic salt system involves mixing sodium nitrite and potassium nitrite to form a nitrite; dissolving at least one metal salt in acetone to obtain a precursor solution, and then evaporating the acetone to obtain a precursor powder; preheating an air muffle furnace, mixing the precursor powder with the nitrite and grinding them evenly, then placing the mixture in the air muffle furnace for heat preservation, and finally cooling and cleaning to obtain nanomaterials corresponding to the metal salt.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. This invention proposes a method for constructing nanomaterials based on a multi-component nitrite eutectic salt system. By controlling the composition ratio of the nitrite system (sodium nitrite and potassium nitrite), nanomaterials are synthesized from different metal precursors in one step at low temperature. This includes the synthesis of the main nanomaterial and the construction of fine nanostructures supported by rare earth single atoms. The method has strong universality, and the synthesis process is simple and the post-reaction processing is convenient. Compared with other aqueous / oil phase nanomaterial synthesis methods, this invention can greatly avoid the contamination of the nanocrystal surface by organic additives. 2. This invention utilizes a nitrite-based molten salt system, with a melting temperature of 400 degrees Celsius and below, significantly lower than the 800 degrees Celsius of the traditional sodium chloride-potassium chloride molten salt system, making the operation process easier to implement. More importantly, compared to the traditional sodium chloride-potassium chloride molten salt system and nitrate molten salt system, it features flexible adjustment of various operating parameters, specifically including: 1) utilizing the high Lux-Flood alkalinity of nitrite to accelerate the nucleation rate of the target product, thereby synthesizing smaller nanomaterials; 2) controlling the melting point of the molten salt by changing the composition ratio of the nitrite system, thereby adjusting the viscosity of the molten salt and influencing the sintering behavior of nanocrystals during the molten nitrite process, avoiding agglomeration and achieving size control of nanomaterials; 3) utilizing the airtight salt-sealing effect of nitrite, easily oxidizable phases (such as cuprous oxide, metallic nanocrystals, etc.) can be directly synthesized in heated air. 3. This invention can construct fine nanostructures supported by rare earth single atoms, and has better compatibility with reactants that are incompatible with aqueous systems (such as platinum acetylacetonate, which has extremely poor water solubility). 4. The synthesis method provided by this invention has the characteristics of broad reactant compatibility, product diversity and controllable reaction environment, and can achieve selective preparation of nanomaterials with multiple components and complex structures. This will provide a brand-new preparation platform for the wide application of nanomaterials in a variety of fields. Attached Figure Description

[0053] This embodiment prepares a pure copper oxide phase nanomaterial, specifically including the following steps: Step 1: Weigh 2.24 g of sodium nitrite and 2.76 g of potassium nitrite into a 50 ml corundum crucible, mix them simply, and then preheat them in a muffle furnace at 400 degrees Celsius for 60 minutes to obtain molten salt; Step 2: Weigh 0.2 g of copper nitrate trihydrate and dissolve it in 150 μL of deionized water to obtain the precursor solution; Step 3: Add the precursor solution to the preheated molten salt, and continue to keep it warm for 30 minutes after no obvious reaction occurs; Step 4: After the heat preservation is completed, remove the crucible from the furnace and allow it to cool naturally to room temperature; wash with a mixed solvent of 30 ml deionized water and 5 ml isopropanol to remove nitrite, and centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 5 minutes to collect the product; add 30 ml deionized water and 5 ml isopropanol back to the collected product, sonicate for 10 minutes, and continue to centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 5 minutes to collect the product; repeat this operation 4 times, and dry the obtained sample under vacuum to obtain the copper oxide nanomaterial.
[0054] The copper oxide nanomaterial obtained in this embodiment was subjected to X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy tests, wherein... Figure 8 X-ray diffraction pattern of (A) copper oxide nanoparticles, Figure 8 Transmission electron microscopy imaging results of (B) copper oxide nanoparticles all indicate that spherical copper oxide nanoparticles with a size of less than 30 nanometers, a pure phase, and a uniform morphology were synthesized.
[0055] Comparative Example 1 This comparative study investigated in detail the effect of Lux-Flood basicity of nitrite eutectic salts on the nucleation results of nanocrystals. Compared with traditional nitrate eutectic salts, nitrite eutectic salts exhibit stronger Lux-Flood basicity, which can induce rapid nucleation of metal ions, thereby obtaining smaller nanoparticles. Simultaneously, sufficient Lux-Flood basicity can promote uniform nucleation of multiple components.
[0056] This comparative example includes four sets of parallel experiments, specifically following these steps: Step 1: Prepare four different sets of molten salts and preheat them. Group 1: Weigh 2.28 g of sodium nitrate and 2.72 g of potassium nitrate into a 50 ml corundum crucible, mix them simply, and then preheat them in a muffle furnace at 400 degrees Celsius for 60 minutes to obtain molten salt; Group 2: Weigh 2.28 g of sodium nitrate, 2.72 g of potassium nitrate and 0.02 g of sodium nitrite into a 50 ml corundum crucible, mix them simply and then preheat them in a muffle furnace at 400 degrees Celsius for 60 minutes to obtain molten salt; Group 3: Weigh 2.28 g of sodium nitrate, 2.72 g of potassium nitrate and 0.05 g of sodium nitrite into a 50 ml corundum crucible, mix them simply and then preheat them in a muffle furnace at 400 degrees Celsius for 60 minutes to obtain molten salt; Group 4: Weigh 2.24 g of sodium nitrite and 2.78 g of potassium nitrite into a 50 ml corundum crucible, mix them simply, and then preheat them in a muffle furnace at 400 degrees Celsius for 60 minutes to obtain molten salt; Step 2: Weigh 0.2 g of copper nitrate and 8.3 μmol of lanthanum nitrate, and dissolve them together in 150 μL of deionized water to obtain the precursor solution; Step 3: Add the precursor solution to each group of preheated molten salts, and continue to keep warm for 30 minutes after no obvious reaction occurs; Step 4: After the heat preservation is completed, remove each group of crucibles from the furnace and allow them to cool naturally to room temperature; wash each crucible with a mixed solvent of 30 ml deionized water and 5 ml isopropanol to remove molten salt, and centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 5 minutes to collect the product; add 30 ml deionized water and 5 ml isopropanol to the collected product and sonicate for 10 minutes, then centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 5 minutes to collect the product; repeat this operation 4 times, and dry the obtained samples under vacuum to obtain different groups of copper oxide nanomaterials loaded with lanthanum single atoms.
[0057] The copper oxide nanomaterials loaded with lanthanum single atoms in different groups obtained in this comparative example were characterized by transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction.
[0058] Figure 9 The results are from transmission electron microscopy characterization, among which Figure 9 (A) corresponds to group 1. Figure 9 (B) corresponds to group 2. Figure 9 (C) corresponds to group 3. Figure 9 (D) corresponds to group 4. The characterization results show that the size of the obtained copper oxide nanoparticles decreases sequentially from (A) to (D), indicating that nitrite can promote the formation of smaller and more uniform copper oxide particles.
[0059] Figure 10 The image shows a comparison of the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the main peak of copper oxide in X-ray diffraction. It can be seen that the main peak width of each group of samples increases sequentially from group 1 to group 4. According to the Scherrer equation, the relationship between peak width and grain size indicates that nitrite can promote the formation of smaller and more uniform copper oxide particles.
[0060] The residual metal ion concentrations of the molten salts used in Groups 1 and 4 of this comparative example were quantified by inductively coupled atomic emission spectrometry. Table 1 shows the copper and dysprosium ion concentrations in the supernatant of the molten salts used in Groups 1 and 4 after washing away the generated oxide particles following the addition of the precursor and heat preservation. It can be seen that a small amount of copper ions and a large amount of dysprosium ions were unreacted in the nitrate system molten salt, while all metal ions were completely reacted in the nitrite system molten salt. This indicates that compared with the nitrate system molten salt, the nitrite system molten salt can promote the rapid and simultaneous nucleation of different metal precursors.
[0061] Table 1 Types of molten salt Copper ion concentration dysprosium ion concentration Group 4 <0.1 micrograms per milliliter <0.1 micrograms per milliliter Group 1 0.14 micrograms per milliliter 21.02 micrograms per milliliter Comparative Example 2 This comparative study investigated the viscosity properties of nitrite eutectic salts near their melting points in detail. The overall viscosity of the molten salt was adjusted by changing the proportions of various nitrates in the nitrite system. Introducing a high-viscosity molten salt suppressed the sintering and overgrowth of the formed nanocrystals in the high-temperature molten salt.
[0062] This comparative example includes two sets of parallel experiments, and the specific procedures are as follows: Step 1: Dissolve 47 mg of dysprosium acetylacetonate in 20 mL of acetone to obtain a dysprosium solution; Step 2: For the platinum nanomaterials loaded with dysprosium single atoms, mix 1 mL of dysprosium solution with 10 mL of acetone and 100 mg of platinum acetylacetonate to obtain a transparent and homogeneous precursor solution. In this step, prepare two identical sets of precursor solutions for subsequent comparative experiments. Step 3: The precursor solution obtained in Step 2 was evaporated and dried in an 80°C water bath to obtain two sets of identical yellow precursor powders; Step 4: Mix the two groups of precursor powders with nitrite, wherein: Group 1: The obtained precursor powder was ground and mixed with 5 grams of sodium nitrite, and then placed in a muffle furnace at 270 degrees Celsius for 90 minutes. Group 2: The obtained precursor powder was mixed with 5 grams of sodium nitrite-potassium nitrite mixed molten salt and then placed in a muffle furnace at 270 degrees Celsius and kept warm for 90 minutes; wherein, the formula of 5 grams of sodium nitrite-potassium nitrite mixed molten salt is to obtain a uniform mixed molten salt by mixing 2.24 grams of sodium nitrite and 2.76 grams of potassium nitrite and preheating it in a muffle furnace at 270 degrees Celsius for 60 minutes. Step 5: After the heat preservation is completed, remove the crucible from the furnace and allow it to cool naturally to room temperature; wash with a mixed solvent of 30 ml deionized water and 5 ml isopropanol to remove nitrite, and centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 5 minutes to collect the product; add 30 ml deionized water and 5 ml isopropanol back to the collected product and sonicate for 10 minutes, then centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 5 minutes to collect the product; repeat this operation 4 times, and dry the obtained samples under vacuum to obtain two groups of platinum nanomaterials loaded with dysprosium single atoms, namely Group 1 and Group 2.
[0063] The two sets of platinum nanomaterials loaded with dysprosium single atoms obtained in this comparative example were characterized by transmission electron microscopy. Figure 11 The results are from transmission electron microscopy characterization, among which Figure 11 (A) corresponds to group 2. Figure 11 (B) corresponds to group 1. It can be seen that the size of platinum nanoparticles formed in pure sodium nitrite with a melting point close to 270 degrees Celsius is significantly smaller than that formed in a sodium nitrite-potassium nitrite mixed molten salt with a melting point of approximately 230 degrees Celsius. This conclusion can also be drawn from… Figure 12 The comparison of the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the main X-ray diffraction peak of platinum in the two sets of platinum nanomaterials loaded with dysprosium single atoms demonstrates this. Since the viscosity of molten salt increases significantly near its melting point, the viscosity of nitrite can be adjusted by changing the component ratio, thereby controlling the size of the formed nanocrystals.
[0064] Comparative Example 3 This comparative study details the airtight salt-sealing properties of nitrite-based eutectic salts. The main characteristic is that the nanoparticles formed in the nitrite-based eutectic salt are prevented from contacting air by being immersed in the molten salt. Therefore, phases that are easily oxidized in air can be successfully formed in nitrite-based eutectic salts.
[0065] The specific steps for this comparison are as follows: Step 1: Weigh 2.24 g of sodium nitrite and 2.76 g of potassium nitrite into a 50 ml corundum crucible, mix them simply, and then preheat them in a muffle furnace at 400 degrees Celsius for 60 minutes to obtain molten salt. After that, take a picture of the inside of the crucible. Step 2: Weigh 0.2 g of copper nitrate and 8.3 μmol of dysprosium nitrate, and dissolve them together in 350 μL of saturated disodium citrate solution to obtain the precursor solution; Step 3: Add the precursor solution to the preheated molten salt and shake vigorously. Take a picture of the inside of the crucible. Step 4: After no obvious reaction occurs, continue to keep warm for 30 minutes, then take a picture of the inside of the crucible; Step 5: After the heat preservation is completed, remove the crucible from the furnace and allow it to cool naturally to room temperature. Take a picture of the inside of the crucible.
[0066] The four photos taken are as follows Figure 13 As shown, where Figure 13 (A) is step 1. Figure 13 (B) is step 3. Figure 13 (C) is step 4. Figure 13 (D) represents step 5. Before the precursor solution was added in step 1, the molten salt was light yellow. After adding the precursor solution and shaking vigorously in step 3, a large amount of characteristic orange-red cuprous oxide was found to have formed in the molten salt, and a large amount of orange-red cuprous oxide was also found on the crucible wall. After holding the temperature for a period of time in step 4, it was found that the cuprous oxide in the molten salt remained orange-red, while the cuprous oxide adhering to the crucible wall was oxidized into characteristic black copper oxide due to the lack of molten salt coverage. After cooling in step 5, it was found that the cuprous oxide was covered by white molten salt. These experimental results show that cuprous oxide, which is easily oxidized by air, can be successfully protected by molten nitrite, thus proving the airtight salt sealing effect of molten salt in the nitrite system.
[0067] Keeping all other steps the same, except for extending the holding time in step 4 to conduct multiple sets of experiments, specifically extending it to 30, 60, 120, 240, and 360 minutes respectively. After the holding time, each set of crucibles was removed from the furnace and allowed to cool naturally to room temperature; each crucible was washed with a mixed solvent of 30 mL deionized water and 5 mL isopropanol to remove molten salt, and then centrifuged at 12,000 rpm for 5 minutes to collect the product; the collected product was then re-added with 30 mL deionized water and 5 mL isopropanol and sonicated for 10 minutes, and then centrifuged again at 12,000 rpm for 5 minutes to collect the product; this operation was repeated 4 times, and the resulting samples were dried under vacuum to obtain different sets of cuprous oxide nanomaterials loaded with dysprosium single atoms.
[0068] X-ray diffraction characterization was performed on the cuprous oxide nanomaterials loaded with dysprosium single atoms obtained in this comparative example. The results are as follows: Figure 14 As shown, when the holding time was extended to 30, 60, 120, 240, and 360 minutes, the samples obtained in each group all maintained a pure cuprous oxide phase and were not oxidized to copper oxide. Therefore, the molten salt in the nitrite system can continuously protect the formed cuprous oxide from oxidation by air, thus fully demonstrating the airtight salt sealing effect of the molten salt in the nitrite system.
