[0002] Micro-nanoscale materials have attracted extensive attention in the fields of scientific research and industrial production due to their numerous advantages. The research on micro-nano materials has become a research hotspot in various fields and industries. The rapid development of today's era has put forward higher requirements on the quality and rapid production of nanoparticle materials. Nanoparticle materials are prepared by precipitation, hydrothermal and sol-gel methods, but these traditional nanoparticle preparation methods have problems such as low yield, large particle size, wide distribution range, complex operation, and potential safety hazards, which cannot meet the needs of high-quality and rapid preparation of nanoparticles.
[0003] Since the 1990s, external field technology has become a new research hotspot. The introduction of external field technology into the chemical production process has demonstrated its great potential and broad application prospects in the synthesis, improvement and large-scale production of materials. As a type of external field enhancement technology, electrohydrodynamic atomization technology is considered to be a fast and efficient method for preparing nanomaterials due to its advantages such as simple operation and controllable process. However, the existing electrohydrodynamic atomization device usually prepares nanoparticles based on the volatilization of the solvent that forms the droplets or the atomization of a single component to react with another component. The reaction process has uncontrollable factors such as local uneven mixing, too fast reaction, and heat transfer limits, making it difficult to use for the preparation of tiny nanoparticle materials. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the fact that the existing electrohydrodynamic atomization device is difficult to use for preparing tiny nanoparticle materials, the utility model provides a double-needle electrospray device for constructing a femtoliter reactor. The utility model can simultaneously atomize the two components of a two-component reaction mixed solution into a plurality of femtoliter-scale (10 -15 L) and sprayed to the same site for mixing reaction, which enhances the micro-mixing efficiency of the reaction mixture. The nucleation of the particles is carried out in a relatively uniform solution environment (low dielectric constant organic solvent). The prepared particles are smaller in size and have a narrower distribution range, thereby solving the difficult-to-control problems of particle size and morphology.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is:
[0006] A double-needle electrospray device for constructing a femtosecond reactor comprises a first injection pump, a second injection pump, a first raw material container, a second raw material container, a positive high-voltage power supply, a negative high-voltage power supply, a first metal nozzle, a second metal nozzle and a product collection container; the first metal nozzle is connected to the positive high-voltage power supply through a wire, the second metal nozzle is connected to the negative high-voltage power supply through a wire, the first metal nozzle and the second metal nozzle are arranged at two ends above the product collection container, and the outlet ends both extend into the product collection container, the outlet ends of the first metal nozzle and the second metal nozzle are arranged oppositely, so that the injection direction is toward a point between the two; the product collection container is used to contain a low dielectric constant organic solvent, and the outlet ends of the first metal nozzle and the second metal nozzle are located below the liquid level of the low dielectric constant organic solvent; the first raw material container and the second raw material container are detachably mounted on the first injection pump and the second injection pump respectively, and the first raw material container and the second raw material container are connected to the first metal nozzle and the second metal nozzle respectively through pipelines.
[0007] Furthermore, the positive high-voltage power supply voltage is 0 to 30 kV, and the negative high-voltage power supply voltage is 0 to -30 kV.
[0008] Furthermore, the dielectric constant of the low dielectric constant organic solvent is less than 10.
[0009] Furthermore, a collection layer is disposed below the low dielectric constant organic solvent, the collection layer has a density greater than that of the low dielectric constant organic solvent, and is poorly soluble or insoluble in the low dielectric constant organic solvent.
[0010] Furthermore, the collection layer is a deionized water layer.
[0011] Furthermore, the low dielectric constant organic solvent is n-hexane or cyclohexane.
[0012] Furthermore, the distance between the outlet ends of the first metal nozzle and the second metal nozzle is 3 to 5 cm.
[0013] Furthermore, a liquid outlet is provided at the bottom of the product collection container.
[0014] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0015] The two-component solutions in the first raw material container and the second raw material container of the utility model are respectively transported to the first metal nozzle and the second metal nozzle under the driving of the first injection pump and the second injection pump, and then the two-component solutions are respectively atomized into a plurality of femtoliter-scale (10 - 15L) small particles. The utility model can simultaneously atomize and spray the two components of a two-component reaction mixed solution under the action of an electric field, and the outlet ends of the first metal nozzle and the second metal nozzle are relatively arranged so that the spraying direction is toward a point between the two, so that the small particles of the two-component solution after atomization are sprayed and mixed and reacted at the point, thereby enhancing the microscopic mixing efficiency of the reaction mixed solution, and the nucleation of the particles is carried out in a relatively uniform solution environment (low dielectric constant organic solvent), and the prepared particles are smaller in size and have a narrower distribution range, thereby solving the problem of difficult control of particle size, morphology, etc. The outlet ends of the first metal nozzle and the second metal nozzle of the utility model are located below the liquid level of the low dielectric constant organic solvent, so that the outlet ends of the first metal nozzle and the second metal nozzle are isolated from the air. Compared with being in the air, the influence of other ions in the air is reduced, and a better preparation effect can be achieved at a smaller voltage, and the safety is greatly increased.
[0016] A collection layer is provided below the low dielectric constant organic solvent in the utility model, and the product can be suspended in the collection layer, reducing the product from adhering to the inner wall of the product collection container, so as to facilitate the collection of the product. In the utility model, the spacing between the outlet ends of the first metal nozzle and the second metal nozzle is 3 to 5 cm. If the spacing between the first metal nozzle and the second metal nozzle is too large, the two components are not easy to contact, which affects the reaction rate. If the spacing is too small, the products formed are easy to agglomerate, and the agglomeration of the products easily leads to the final product particles being too large in size.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the specific implementation modes of the accompanying drawings, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0021] Embodiment 1
[0022] Figure 1The double-needle electrospray device for constructing a flying reactor according to the utility model is a specific embodiment. The double-needle electrospray device includes a first injection pump 1, a second injection pump 2, a first raw material container 3, a second raw material container 4, a positive high-voltage power supply 5, a negative high-voltage power supply 6, a first metal nozzle 7, a second metal nozzle 8, and a product collection container 9. The first metal nozzle 7 is connected to the positive high-voltage power supply 5 through a wire, and the voltage of the positive high-voltage power supply 5 is 0-30kV. The second metal nozzle 8 is connected to the negative high-voltage power supply 6 through a wire, and the voltage of the negative high-voltage power supply 6 is 0--30kV, so that there is a voltage difference between the first metal nozzle 7 and the second metal nozzle 8, and the two components of the two-component reaction mixed solution can be atomized and sprayed at the same time under the action of the electric field. The first metal nozzle 7 and the second metal nozzle 8 are arranged at both ends above the product collection container 9, and the outlet ends are both extended into the product collection container 9. The outlet ends of the first metal nozzle 7 and the second metal nozzle 8 are arranged relative to each other, so that the spray direction is toward a point between the two, so that the small particles of the two-component solution after atomization are sprayed and mixed and reacted at this point, thereby enhancing the microscopic mixing efficiency of the reaction mixed solution.
[0023] The product collection container 9 is used to contain a low dielectric constant organic solvent, so that the nucleation of the particles is carried out in a relatively uniform solution environment, and the prepared particles are smaller in size and have a narrower distribution range. The dielectric constant of the low dielectric constant organic solvent is less than 10, which reduces the weakening of the electric field by the low dielectric constant organic solvent, thereby reducing the influence of the weakening of the electric field on the atomization effect. The outlet ends of the first metal nozzle 7 and the second metal nozzle 8 are located below the liquid level of the low dielectric constant organic solvent, so that the outlet ends of the first metal nozzle and the second metal nozzle are isolated from the air. Compared with being in the air, the influence of other ions in the air is reduced, and a better preparation effect can be achieved at a lower voltage, and the safety is greatly increased. The distance between the outlet end of the first metal nozzle 7 and the outlet end of the second metal nozzle 8 is 3 to 5 cm. If the distance between the first metal nozzle 7 and the second metal nozzle 8 is too large, the two components are not easy to contact, which affects the reaction rate. If the distance is too small, the product formed is easy to agglomerate, and the product agglomeration is easy to cause the final product particle size to be too large. A collection layer is provided below the low dielectric constant organic solvent, the density of the collection layer is greater than that of the low dielectric constant organic solvent, and the collection layer is poorly soluble or incompatible with the low dielectric constant organic solvent, so that when the low dielectric constant organic solvent and the collection layer are added to the product collection container 9, the low dielectric constant organic solvent and the collection layer can be divided into two layers and the collection layer is located below the low dielectric constant organic solvent. The low dielectric constant organic solvent is n-hexane or cyclohexane, and the collection layer is a deionized water layer. The product can be suspended in the deionized water to reduce the adhesion of the product to the inner wall of the product collection container 9, so as to facilitate the collection of the product. A liquid outlet is provided at the bottom of the product collection container 9 for collecting the product; in addition, when the product collection container 9 needs to be cleaned, the liquid and impurities after cleaning the product collection container 9 can also be discharged from the liquid outlet for cleaning.
[0024] The first raw material container 3 and the second raw material container 4 are detachably mounted on the first injection pump 1 and the second injection pump 2, respectively, so as to facilitate adding two-component solutions into the first raw material container 3 and the second raw material container 4. The first raw material container 3 and the second raw material container 4 are respectively connected to the first metal nozzle 7 and the second metal nozzle 8 through pipelines, so that the two-component solutions in the first raw material container 3 and the second raw material container 4 can be transported to the first metal nozzle 7 and the second metal nozzle 8 under the drive of the first injection pump 1 and the second injection pump 2, respectively.
[0025] The two-component solutions in the first raw material container 3 and the second raw material container 4 are respectively transported to the first metal nozzle 7 and the second metal nozzle 8 under the driving of the first injection pump 1 and the second injection pump 2, and then the two-component solutions are respectively atomized into a plurality of femtoliter-scale (10 -15L) small particles. The utility model can simultaneously atomize and spray the two components of the two-component reaction mixed solution under the action of an electric field, and the outlet ends of the first metal nozzle 7 and the second metal nozzle 8 are relatively arranged so that the spraying directions are all toward a point between the two, so that the small particles of the two-component solution after atomization are sprayed and mixed and reacted at the point, thereby enhancing the microscopic mixing efficiency of the reaction mixed solution, and the nucleation of the particles is carried out in a relatively uniform solution environment (low dielectric constant organic solvent), and the prepared particles are smaller in size and narrower in distribution range, thereby solving the problem of difficult control of particle size, morphology, etc.
