Compare with prior art, the present invention has outstanding advantage:
1, described diine monomer can penetrate into less space or defective, obviously improves and gathers diine/carbon nano tube composite fibre mechanical performance.The mechanical performance of pure nano-carbon tube fiber is owing to the existence of space and defective is significantly reduced, usually between 0.15-0.18GPa
14,32For space and this negative effect of defective with inside drop to minimum, prior art is with other component, for example polymer
9,33Join in the carbon nano-tube fibre, use mean molecule quantity to be about 350, the polymethyl methacrylate of 000g/mol can be brought up to 0.27GPa with TENSILE STRENGTH
34,, but because big polymer molecule is mainly filled out in big space or defective (polymer molecule gets into the size that mainly depends on molecular weight in the hole) that little space or defective still exist
35So,, the amount that is improved still fails to satisfy actual requirement,
2, the present invention makes gathers soaking in the space and defective of carbon nano-tube fibre except gathering the diine molecule of diine/carbon nano tube composite fibre; Gathering the network structure of diine in CNT causes its mechanical strength obviously to improve (shown in Figure 4); Synthetic diine/carbon nano tube composite fibre the mechanical strength of gathering that makes of the present invention is 0.89GPa, and the intensity of pure nano-carbon tube fiber has only 0.17Gpa; The TENSILE STRENGTH of pure nano-carbon tube fiber is 0.15-0.35GPa, and pure TENSILE STRENGTH of gathering the diine crystal fibre is about 0.32GPa
34, well-known, single-root carbon nano-tube slightly up to 150GPa
36The fracture of carbon nano-tube fibre is most likely owing to the slip of adjacent carbons nanotube under strong stress effect, and among the present invention, it is crosslinked with CNT in polymerization process to gather diine; Stop it to slide, make the mechanical performance of gathering diine/carbon nano tube composite fibre improve.
In addition, when being heated to 81 ℃, the TENSILE STRENGTH of composite fibre reaches 0.99GPa; When being heated to 132 ℃, TENSILE STRENGTH only reaches 0.91GPa, and this is because after temperature is higher than 110 ℃, the disordering of gathering diine
37Among the present invention, realize the raising of TENSILE STRENGTH through solvent processing.Among the present invention, bring up to 0.92Gpa by the 0.89GPa before handling, can reach 1.1GPa by the TENSILE STRENGTH of gathering diine/carbon nano tube composite fibre that oxolane is handled.
Table 1 is pure nano-carbon tube fiber and the TENSILE STRENGTH of gathering diine/carbon nano tube composite fibre, wherein demonstrates other two groups of composite fibres and also has similar characteristic.
A wherein, b and c represent three groups of different samples.
3, compare with single-root carbon nano-tube, the electrical conductivity of carbon nano-tube fibre has reduced significantly, because the existence of a large amount of contact resistances between the adjacent carbons nanotube, the formation of polymer/carbon nano-tube composite fibre also further reduces.For example, polyvinyl alcohol is compounded on the carbon nano-tube fibre, the electrical conductivity of the composite fibre that obtains at room temperature has only 2S/cm, and the electrical conductivity of pure carbon nano-tube fibre is 300S/cm.Big polymer molecule is easy to assemble, especially in the space and defective of fibrous inside.Among the present invention, gather diine and disperse (Fig. 2) equably because the diine monomer soaks into to make in littler space and the defective, the polymerization of diine make combine between the CNT more closely reduced contact resistance.Therefore, the polymer/carbon nano-tube composite fibre has higher electrical conductivity than the composite fibre that directly obtains with polymer.In fact, polymer/carbon nano-tube composite fibre high conductivity at room temperature can reach 350S/cm.It should be noted that the pure diine crystal that gathers is 10 in the electrical conductivity of room temperature
-6S/cm.The present invention improves the composite fibre electrical conductivity.
4, the resistance that gathers diine/carbon nano tube composite fibre that the present invention makes significantly increases (as shown in Figure 5, as wherein to gather diine/carbon nano tube composite fibre and pure nano-carbon tube fibre diameter and length and be respectively 6.6nm and 2.3mm).The resistance of pure nano-carbon tube fiber is calculated by Fig. 5 a, is 8.26K Ω.Among the present invention, form after the blue polymer/carbon nano-tube composite fibre, resistance reaches 9.62K Ω; When temperature reached 81 ℃, the resistance of composite fibre was increased to 10.16K Ω, and during 132 ℃ of higher temperature, resistance further is increased to 10.26K Ω; After oxolane was handled, resistance reached 9.94K Ω.Wherein reason is that the increase hot and resistance that solvent processing causes is because the disordering of gathering diine in the composite fibre

A wherein, b and c represent three groups of different samples.
The present invention carries out novel the synthetic of diine/carbon nano tube composite fibre that gather on the basis of prior art solution methods, especially provide one to have a method of good physical polymer/carbon nano-tube composite fibre through monomer is synthetic.The present invention forms between orderly carbon nanotubes arranged and gathers the diine network structure, makes the composite fibre that makes have better machinery and electric property.Under the room temperature, the TENSILE STRENGTH of composite fibre is up to 1.1GPa, and electrical conductivity is up to 350S/cm.Preparation method of the present invention is simple, and the composite fibre that makes has the variable color behavior, makes this composite fibre on especially nondestructive inspection context of detection of many sensings is used, have very big potentiality.
