摘要:

由于兰炭末粒径小、挥发分低等原因限制了其在工业生产中大规模利用。因此,兰炭末高附加值改性制备是当前极具吸引力和前景的研究课题。通过KOH协助微波热解低阶粉煤制备了含有碳纳米管的高附加值改性兰炭末,研究了KOH添加量(碱碳比)对改性兰炭末的形貌和结构、石墨化度、微晶结构和碳纳米管(CNTs)含量的影响,推测了改性兰炭末中碳纳米管的生成机制。结果表明:当碱碳比为1.0时,改性兰炭末中生成了直径在30~50 nm,长度约为几十微米的碳纳米管,其含量为3.01%(质量)。随着碱碳比增加,K的刻蚀和原煤所含矿物质产生的Fe3C对碳纳米管的生成具有促进作用,改性兰炭末的有序性有所增强,石墨层间距的交互作用增强,Raman光谱中出现碳纳米管的标志特征峰G′,表明生成了含有碳纳米管的高附加值改性兰炭末。此外,FT-IR光谱中改性兰炭末中的C—C、C—H和醚键C—O—C结构强度明显减弱。这种现象的产生可能有两方面原因:一是这些碳结构在催化剂的作用下成为了碳纳米管直接生成的固相碳源;二是这些碳结构热分解释放出CO和CH4,这些气体可作为碳纳米管的气相碳源。高附加值改性兰炭末中碳纳米管的生成可能是 “顶端生成”模型和“粒-线-管生成”模型共同作用的结果。

Abstract:

The limitation of large-scale utilization of bluecoke powders in industrial production due to their small particle size and low volatiles, and their preparation through high value-added modification therefore is an attractive and promising research subject for now. In this study, the high value-added modified bluecoke powders containing carbon nanotubes were prepared by KOH-assisted microwave pyrolysis of low-rank pulverized coal. The effects of KOH addition (alkali-carbon ratio) on the morphological structure, graphitization, microcrystalline structure and carbon nanotubes content of the modified bluecoke powders were investigated, and the generation mechanism of carbon nanotubes in the modified bluecoke powders was speculated. The results showed that carbon nanotubes with diameters of 30—50 nm and lengths of several tens of micrometers were produced in the modified bluecoke powders at the alkali-carbon ratio of 1.0, and the content was about 3.01%(mass). With the increment of the alkali-carbon ratio, the formation of carbon nanotubes was promoted by the etching of K and Fe3C produced from minerals in the raw coal, meanwhile the ordering of modified bluecoke powders and the interaction of graphite layer spacing were enhanced. The characteristic peak G' in the Raman spectra of carbon nanotubes was found that indicated the high value-added modified bluecoke powders containing carbon nanotubes were successfully produced. In addition, the intensities of C—C, C—H and ether bonded C—O—C structures in FT-IR spectra of the modified bluecoke powders were significantly weakened. This phenomenon was caused by two potential reasons. On the one hand, these carbon structures became the direct solid-phase carbon source of carbon nanotube with the presence of catalysts. On the other hand, the thermal decomposition of these carbon structures released CO and CH4, which could be used as the gas-phase carbon source for carbon nanotubes. The formation of carbon nanotubes in the high value-added modified bluecoke powders may be the result of the joint action of the “top formation” model and the “particle-wire-tube formation” model.
