With reference to Fig. 2, it has been confirmed that amine solvent is added to and is used to make compared with the comparative example 1 for not adding amine solvent Embodiment 1 and embodiment 2 in the precursor solution of standby electrode have at the electrode surface after battery operation to be clearly observed Cerium acicular texture.
Specifically, in the case of example 1, each acicular texture is formed to have the thickness and 0.5 of 50nm to 200nm μm to 5 μm of length, and in comparative example 1, thickness is only 20nm to 50nm and length is 0.2 μm to 0.5 μm.Namely It says, it has been confirmed that the acicular texture of cerium increases 2 times to 4 times in the electrode of addition amine.
In addition, removing or crackle are not observed in embodiment 1 and embodiment 2, and on the electrode surface of comparative example 1 Peeling-off and crackle.
From result above it has been confirmed that preparation method of the invention can increase the acicular texture of rare earth metal, thus aobvious Write the durability for improving electrode.
EXPERIMENTAL EXAMPLE 4: the comparison of electrode surface component
The electrode prepared in embodiment 1 and embodiment 2 and comparative example 1 is measured by EDX (Energy Dispersive Spectrometer) Component.It is measured three times in the difference of each electrode, mole % of Ru and N is shown in following table 3 in electrode.
[table 3]
As measurement as a result, using the feelings of the embodiment 1 of amine solvent and embodiment 2 in the preparation of electrode for electrolysis Under condition, the molar ratio of nitrogen and ruthenium is up to 35% to 50%, and in the comparative example 1 without using amine, the molar ratio of nitrogen and ruthenium is 13% to 19%.
From result above it has been confirmed that even if after the heat treatment, electrode prepared according to the methods of the invention also shows Out than not containing the higher nitrogen content as amine component of electrode of amine solvent in preparation process.
