We determined the optimum dispersant to separate bulk NbSe material into 1D chain units. The NbSe, which had a negative zeta potential (-43.3 mV), showed acidic characteristics and strongly bonded with the amine head of octadecyl amine through a charge transfer (from the amine to Se atoms) reaction. The steric hindrance of the octadecyl tail resulted in excellent dispersion of NbSe (down to nanometre-sized mono-chains).
我们确定了将块状NbSe材料分离成一维链单元的最佳分散剂。具有负zeta电位(-43.3 mV)的NbSe表现出酸性特征,并通过电荷转移(从胺到Se原子)反应与十八烷基胺的胺头强烈结合。十八烷基尾部的空间位阻导致NbSe具有出色的分散性(低至纳米级单链)。
