2, the Raman optical characterisation of single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics
Among the present invention, respectively the single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics before and after the purifying is carried out microcell Raman collection of illustrative plates and characterize, the optical maser wavelength of employing is 514.5nm (2.41eV).The Raman spectrum of the original single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics of Fig. 7 a has shown and document (A.M.Rao, E.Richter, S.Bandow, B.Chase, P.C.Eklund, K.A.Williams, S.Fang, K.R.Subbaswamy, M.Menon, A.Thess, R.E.Smalley, G.Dresselhaus, M.S.Dresselhaus, Science, 1997, the characteristic peak of two groups of single-layer carbon nano-tubes that 275,187) conform to shows that the product that we produce is a single-layer carbon nano-tube.Illustration in Fig. 7 a can see that the first group of peak that is positioned at low frequency range comprises 165cm -1, 182cm -1, 207cm -1, 229cm -1, be the breathing mould (RBM) of single-layer carbon nano-tube, its frequency displacement relevant with the diameter of single-layer carbon nano-tube (ω=223.75/d, the ω Raman is breathed the frequency displacement of mould, the diameter of d single-layer carbon nano-tube).According to the relation of single-layer carbon nano-tube diameter and Raman frequency shift, the caliber scope that can obtain the single-layer carbon nano-tube that the present invention produces is at 1~1.5nm, and this result with our transmission electron microscope observing conforms to.Wherein be positioned at 207cm -1The RBM peak higher be because the result of single-layer carbon nano-tube resonance raman.The second stack features peak position of Fig. 7 a is in 1568cm -1And 1590cm -1, be the tangential flexible mould of single-layer carbon nano-tube, promptly be equivalent to the G mould of graphite material Raman spectrum.Because it is folding that the small-size effect of single-layer carbon nano-tube makes that the Brillouin zone of its phonon mould takes place, produce a plurality of peaks thereby cause the G mould that division takes place.Be positioned at 1346cm -1The peak at place is the D peak of single-layer carbon nano-tube, corresponding to amorphous carbon, nanocarbon particle and defective etc. in the single-layer carbon nano-tube sample.With 1590cm -1G compares at the peak, and the D peak of single-layer carbon nano-tube is lower among Fig. 7 a, and the amount of amorphous carbon is lost seldom in the interpret sample, and this conforms to our electron microscopic observation.
Fig. 7 b is the Raman spectrum of the single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics behind the purifying.As can be seen, breathe mould except on original position, going out the peak, be positioned at low frequency 143cm through the Raman of the later single-layer carbon nano-tube of purifying -1The position has also shown characteristic peak, the corresponding about 1.6nm of caliber (shown in illustration in Fig. 7 b).This is because in the air oxidation process, single-layer carbon nano-tube with big caliber is more stable than little caliber, be not easy oxidizedly to fall, so thereby the relative quantity of the single-layer carbon nano-tube of big caliber increases its raman characteristic peak is showed in the breathing mould of Raman spectrum behind the purifying.While is for the high-frequency characteristic peak of Fig. 7 b, can see through the D peak of the single-layer carbon nano-tube behind the purifying and the ratio at G peak and reducing greatly, behind this explanation purifying in the single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics of the present invention impurity obviously reduce, be very effective thereby the air oxidation of further adopting in the proof experiment cooperates the purification process of strong acid treatment.
3, the mechanical property of single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics is measured
Among the present invention, the single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics of producing has the yardstick of macroscopic view, utilizes a small-sized stretching device directly to measure the mechanical performance of single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics, as shown in Figure 8.Fig. 8 a has shown the mechanical meaurement result of original single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics.By calculating, the apparent Young's modulus that can obtain original single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics is about 188GPa, and its fracture strength is 144Mpa.In addition, show (shown in Fig. 8 b) for the single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics stretching measurement result behind the purifying, the Young's modulus of single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics is about 139GPa behind the purifying, and its fracture strength is about 107MPa.
Report before the contrast, the mechanical moduli of the film (backpaper) of the CNT that obtains than common overlength single-layer carbon nano-tube bundle or post processing of the Young's modulus of single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics is all wanted high many (A.B.Dalton, S.Collins as can be seen, E.Mounoz, J.M.Razal, V.H.Ebron, J.P.Ferraris, J.N.Coleman, B.G.Kim and R.H.Baughman, Nature, 2003,423,703; R.H.Baughman, C.X.Cui, A.A.Zakhidov, Z.Iqbal, J.N.Barisci, G.M.Spinks, G.G.Wallace, A.Mazzoldi, D.D Rossi, A.G.Rinzler, O.Jaschinski, S.Roth, and M.Kertesz, Science, 1999,284,1340).Take all factors into consideration among the present invention the effective cross-section of CNT in the tube bank of the voidage in the single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics and carbon pipe, can obtain the effective cross-section that single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics stretches and account for 26% ± 10% of total cross section greatly.Consider the influence of effective cross-section, further can calculate that the true Young's modulus of not purified single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics can reach 700GPa.Sample to different size among the present invention is tested, and the result shows that the Young's modulus for not purified single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics is about 700 ± 270GPa, and fracture strength is about 600 ± 231MPa.And the nonwoven fabric behind the purifying, its Young's modulus is about 500 ± 190GPa, the about 400 ± 154MPa of fracture strength.
The single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics for preparing among the present invention can have extraordinary mechanical performance, is mainly derived from its particular structure.On the one hand, the single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics of producing is tangled mutually and is formed by many single-layer carbon nano-tube bundles.These carbon nano-tube bundles have the length that reaches the hundreds of micron, and weave in closely.This compact structure and firm interweaving make that stress can be good at transmitting in carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics, therefore the elasticity linear zone in the stretching experiment can just really react the elastic stretching characteristic of single-layer carbon nano-tube, thereby the Young's modulus that obtains is relatively near the elastic modelling quantity (1TPa) of single-layer carbon nano-tube.In addition, the single-layer carbon nano-tube among the present invention is to grow down in higher relatively temperature (1100 ℃) to form, and the degree of graphitization of the CNT that it comprises is very high, and defective seldom.Theoretical research shows that defective single-layer carbon nano-tube seldom has the very high elastic modelling quantity that gets.
4, the high temperature furnace growth temperature is to the influence of single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics preparation
Among the present invention, adopt methane as carbon source, single-layer carbon nano-tube can be synthesized in wider temperature range (800~1200 ℃).Simultaneously, different reaction temperature is influential to the output of single-layer carbon nano-tube.Shown in the table 1 Relationship with Yield of reaction temperature to single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics.Be lower than under 800 ℃ the temperature, we find to have only a spot of product attached on the quartz ampoule gatherer.Be higher than 1100 ℃ and work as reaction temperature, the primary product that obtains is the amorphous carbon of grey, and can not collect with the form of film.Among the present invention, relatively the temperature of the growth single-layer carbon nano-tube of You Huaing is 1100 ℃, the reaction temperature high more (to 1200 ℃) that this and other people report, and the output of single-layer carbon nano-tube is different more.This mainly is owing under higher temperature, owing to methane speeds up from pyrolysis, thereby changed the feed speed of carbon source to catalyst granules.Therefore produce more amorphous carbon, and generate less single-layer carbon nano-tube.
The relation of table 1 single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics productive rate and high temperature road growth temperature
Figure A20081010317900121
5, low temperature oven catalyst sublimation temperature is to the influence of single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics preparation
Among the present invention,, can regulate and control the productive rate and the quality of single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics by the sublimation temperature of control catalyst.Table 2 has shown the Relationship with Yield of low temperature oven catalyst sublimation temperature to single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics.
The relation of table 2 single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics productive rate and ferrocene consumption
Figure A20081010317900122
As can be seen, with the raising of the sublimation temperature of catalyst, the amount of the catalyst that is introduced into is many more, and the output of product is big more.Certainly, a part is owing to the amount that coats the iron particle in the single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics of original preparation has increased greatly in the output of increase.And under lower catalyst sublimation temperature, can produce purer single-layer carbon nano-tube non-woven fabrics.
The above embodiments only are used for illustrating this explanation, and it should not be construed is that protection domain to this explanation carries out any restriction.And, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that do not breaking away under the present invention spirit and the principle, to various equivalent variation that the present invention carried out, modification and in the text not the various improvement of description all within the protection domain of this patent.
