The invention relates to a Cu-Te / ZnO (at) Gr
composite material and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: step 1, pre-alloying
copper and
tellurium; step 2, supersonic gas atomization
powder preparation; 3,
zinc oxide in-situ growth, wherein the surface of the Cu-Te pre-alloyed
powder obliquely grows and is coated with a ZnO
nanoneedle array; 4,
antioxidant composite treatment is conducted, specifically, the ZnO-coated Cu-Te
powder prepared in the step 3 is soaked in an
ethanol solution containing 0.8 wt% of an organic borosilicate complexing agent; and step 5, chemically bonding
graphene, and treating by adopting a pH
response type graphene oxide dispersion liquid. By adopting the technical scheme, the obliquely growing ZnO
nanoneedle transition layer and the
graphene shell layer are constructed to synergistically form a three-dimensional anchoring structure, chemical bonding with graphene is enhanced, and on the basis of the low-temperature in-situ reaction of the
zinc-
ammonium complexing solution and the synergistic effect of the organic
boron-
silicon complexing agent, a compact glass phase is formed at a high temperature, so that the performance of the
composite material is improved. The volatilization rate of the
Te element is reduced, and a Si-O-Zn
covalent bond is formed between ZnO and graphene in combination with three-stage
pH regulation.
