Problems solved by technology

However, due to the very few active groups on the surface of carbon nanotubes, its interaction with the polymer matrix is ​​weak
In addition, the aspect ratio and specific surface area of ​​carbon nanotubes are very large, so they are easy to agglomerate and entangle with each other, and it is difficult to disperse uniformly in polymers, so that the excellent performance of carbon nanotubes cannot be reflected in composite materials (A.Allaoui , S. Bai, H.M. Cheng, J.B. Bai, Composites Science and Technology 62(2002))
In addition, since the size of carbon nanotube aggregates is mostly above the micron level, if the aggregates cannot be opened, it is easy to cause the spinneret to be blocked during the spinning process, and it is easy to cause broken ends during drafting, which will reduce the production rate of the product. decline
[0008] At present, methods such as treatment with strong acid (such as aqua regia) are mostly used to improve the dispersion, but this will destroy the structure of the carbon nanotube itself and leave some impurities (J.L.Bahr, J.M.Tour, Chem.Mater.ASAP (2001))
At the same time, the strong acid treatment process will increase the production cost and easily cause environmental pollution, which is not conducive to the large-scale promotion and application of carbon nanotube composite materials.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a conductive fiber and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a polymer / carbon nanotube conductive fiber and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Polymer materials have the advantages of light weight, good comprehensive performance, good molding processability, and low price. Chemical fibers prepared from polymer materials have been widely used in many fields such as national defense, military industry, construction and clothing. [0003] Most chemical fibers have high volume resistance, and are prone to static electricity due to friction and induction during production and use. When wearing ordinary clothes and walking on the insulating ground, the electrostatic potential can reach more than 3000V. Higher electrostatic voltage can cause electric shock to the human body and cause damage to electronic components; electrostatic discharge can cause accidental explosion of gunpowder and chemicals; el...
