2021
In the present study, a novel silver nanoparticles-decorated three-dimensional graphene-like porous carbon (Ag/3D GPC) nanocomposite has been synthesized via the method of carbonization and reduction of silver ions at the same time. This Ag/3D GPC nanocomposite possess an interconnected network of well crystalized and submicron-sized macropores with thin graphene walls of several nanometers, where silver nanoparticles distributing uniformly. The water based and ethylene glycol based Ag/3D GPC hybrid nanofluids have been prepared without any surfactant. The hybrid nanofluids with low concentration (<0.8 wt%) can be steadily dispersed for more than six months. The thermal conductivity enhancement for the nanofluids with 0.1 wt% can reach 10.3% and 8.8% at 25℃ compared with pure water and ethylene glycol, respectively. The viscosity of nanofluids is investigated, the temperature dependence of the dynamic viscosity obeys an Arrhenius-like behavior. The prepared Ag/3D GPC hybrid nanofluids with good stability and thermal conductivity are promisingly considered to be used in heat transfer field.
