Low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials have broad application prospects and huge industry development potential

Low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials refer to carbon materials with a material microstructure ranging from zero to two dimensions and with at least one dimension of the dispersed phase less than 100nm. According to different structures, low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials can be divided into three types: two-dimensional carbon nanomaterials, one-dimensional carbon nanomaterials and zero-dimensional carbon nanomaterials. Compared with traditional carbon materials. Low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials have the advantages of compatibility with multiple substrates, large specific surface area, small size, good light absorption properties, and good chemical stability, and are expected to have broad application prospects in many high-tech fields.

There are a wide variety of low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials. Two-dimensional carbon nanomaterials include multi-layer graphite nanosheets, graphene, etc.; one-dimensional carbon nanomaterials include carbon nanowires and carbon nanotubes; zero-dimensional carbon nanomaterials include graphene quantum dots, fullerenes, etc. Zero-dimensional carbon nanomaterials refer to materials whose three-dimensional scale directions are all at the nanoscale, and fullerene is its representative product. At present, only the United States, Japan, Russia and other countries in the world have fullerene mass production capabilities. In November 2022, my country discovered natural onion-like fullerene with an outer diameter of approximately 55nm, which is important for the research of zero-dimensional carbon nanomaterials. significance.

Low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials have become a hot research topic in various countries around the world. After years of development, their preparation processes have continued to make breakthroughs and innovations. Taking two-dimensional carbon nanomaterials as an example, its main preparation methods include hot wire chemical vapor deposition, ion beam deposition, pulsed laser deposition, sputtering deposition, and radio frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition. Sputtering deposition is the most commonly used method for preparing two-dimensional carbon nanomaterials in industry, and can be subdivided into three types: magnetron sputtering, radio frequency sputtering and DC sputtering.

According to the “2023-2028 China Low-Dimensional Carbon Nanomaterials Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report released by the Industrial Research Center It shows that low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials have excellent properties and are one of the new materials with the greatest development potential. They are expected to be widely used in many fields such as biological imaging, new energy, electronics and electrical. In the electronic and electrical field, low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes and graphene can be used as negative electrode materials for lithium-ion batteries, which can effectively improve battery charge and discharge performance. As downstream demand increases, the development space of my country’s low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials industry will further expand.

The main manufacturers of low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials in my country include Shandong Dazhan Nanomaterials, Henan Clayway Nanocarbon Materials, Shenzhen Watt New Materials, Jiangsu Tiannai, etc. With the increasing enthusiasm of local enterprises for research and development, the development speed of my country’s low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials industry will continue to accelerate.

          Industry analysts said that low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials have excellent comprehensive properties and have broad application prospects in many high-tech fields. At present, low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials have become a hot research topic in various countries around the world. With continuous breakthroughs and innovations in R&D and production technology, the prosperity of the low-dimensional carbon nanomaterials industry will continue to increase, and the future market prospects will be broader.
