Problems solved by technology

[0004] Among many structure-directing agents, anionic and cationic surfactants are commonly used, such as cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, etc., although they have certain effects on the precursor of carbon materials. However, the stable storage time of the dispersed carbon material solution is shorter than that of other structure-directing agents; amphoteric surfactants such as chitosan cannot meet the requirements of industrial applications due to their high price, and have not been widely used.
However, the application of new surfactants in the surface modification of carbon materials needs to be further studied, especially the low price, safety and non-toxicity, and can largely modify the surface of carbon materials to solve their long-term dispersion and prolong the carbon life. Surfactants for the storage time of the material solution have not yet been reported in the relevant work

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for surface modification of a carbon material. By adopting a safe, low-cost, non-toxic environment-friendly structure-directing agent and a one-pot hydrothermal method, functionalized radicals are simply and efficiently introduced into surfaces of carbon nanotubes and graphene so that the surface of the carbon material is significantly modified, the structure stability of the carbon material is maintained to the greatest extent, the dispersion of the carbon material in a solution is improved, the carbon material has good dispersing effect in the process that a dispersion liquid is maintained for a long time and thus the carbon nanotubes and graphene can be uniformly dispersed and stably exist in different matrix materials and the mechanical property, electrical conductivity and the like of a composite material can be significantly improved. Compared with the prior art, the method disclosed by the invention has the advantages that environmental friendliness is achieved, large-scale production can also be achieved and no highly toxic waste is produced and the method is simple, efficient and safe and, thus being a very promising and efficient modification method of carbon material.

Background technique [0002] In 1991, Dr. Iijima of Japan Electronics Corporation (NEC) discovered a peculiar carbon structure-carbon nanotube (CNT), which has a high aspect ratio and a unique quasi-one-dimensional tubular structure on the nanometer scale. Carbon nanotubes have very superior mechanical, electrical, thermal and chemical properties, and have great potential application value in the field of future science and technology. Therefore, after the discovery of carbon nanotubes, they quickly became a research hotspot in the fields of physics, chemistry and material science. Carbon atoms in carbon nanotubes are represented by sp 2 Hybridization is dominant, while the hexagonal grid stru...
