Disclosed is a method for preparation of a nickel-carbonitride sphere, which includes preparing a melamine-formaldehyde resin, adding a nickel salt and a surfactant to the melamine-formaldehyde resin to prepare a nickel-melamine resin mixture, and conducting spray pyrolysis for the mixture to produce nickel-containing powder including nickel-carbonitride spheres. In addition, this method may further include thermal treatment of the nickel-containing powder.

The present invention discloses a method for preparation of a hybrid comprising magnetite nanoparticles and carbon nitride nanotubes, comprising: preparing carbon nitride nanotubes by plasma chemical vapor deposition (CVD); dissolving the prepared carbon nitride nanotubes in triethyleneglycol to form solution and adding Fe (acetylacetonate)to the solution to obtain a mixture; and heating and cooling the mixture to form a hybrid comprising magnetite nanoparticles and carbon nitride nanotubes, in which the carbon nitride nanotubes are doped with magnetite nanoparticles.

Method for preparation of hybrid comprising magnetite nanoparticles and carbon nitride nanotubes

The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a transition metal-carbon nanotube hybrid material using nitrogen as a medium. The present invention is characterized in that nitrogen-added carbon nanotube is grown in the presence of metal catalyst particles by reacting an hydrocarbon gas with a nitrogen gas by a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and a transition metal-carbon nanotube hybrid material where a transition metal is uniformly attached to the entire carbon nanotube structure in which nitrogen with a great chemical reactivity is added as heterogeneous elements is chemically manufactured. Therefore, the present invention does not use an acid treatment required to attach transition-metal atoms to the carbon-nanotube, a surface treating process using a surfactant and the like and an inhibitor for preventing the coagulation of the transition metal so that a simplification of the process is obtained and the method is an environment-friendly method. The transition metal-carbon nanotube hybrid material manufactured by the above can be applied variously as a hydrogen storage material, a catalyst material, an electric field emission device and an electrode material.
