Description

Cobalt-nickel hydroxide sleeve type modified carbon fiber composite material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a cobalt-nickel hydroxide sleeve type modified carbon fiber composite material and a preparation method and application thereof, belonging to the technical field of catalytic materials.
Background
With the continuous consumption of fossil energy and the continuous increase of environmental problems, people have increasingly growing requirements on clean energy and green development. The electrocatalytic anode Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) plays an important role in the field of new energy resources, such as electrocatalytic decomposition of water for hydrogen evolution, fuel cells and the like. However, the oxygen evolution reaction involves four electron transfer, a kinetic lag process. At present, noble metals such as ruthenium, iridium and the like and oxides thereof have high electrocatalytic activity and can improve oxygen evolution efficiency, but the commercial application of the noble metals is limited by factors such as high price, low reserves and the like. Therefore, the research and development of a non-noble metal OER catalyst which is convenient for production and application is still one of the important directions of scientific research.
The research of iron-based transition metal compound on OER electrocatalytic mechanism shows that the low-valence element compound such as cobalt hydroxide Co (OH)2Etc., which are further converted to their corresponding oxyhydroxide forms such as cobalt oxyhydroxide (CoOOH), etc., during the electrocatalytic process, and these oxyhydroxides are believed to be the true active sites for electrocatalytic oxygen Evolution [ direct oxygen Evolution of Structural Evolution of Metal charogenide in electrocatalytic Water Oxidation [ J]. ACS nano 2018, 12 (12):12369-12379.]. It has been reported that the cobalt-nickel layered hydroxide has excellent electrocatalytic activity [ Hyd ] for anodic oxygen evolution reaction in alkaline electrolysis environmentrothermalcontinuous flow synthesis and exfoliation of NiCo layered double hydroxidenanosheets for enhanced oxygen evolution catalysis [J]. Nano letters 2015, 15(2):1421-7.]. However, the oxygen evolution efficiency under neutral electrolytes has been rarely studied; in the practical application process, the catalyst material also has the problems of poor conductivity, easy agglomeration, poor stability and the like. In the traditional water electrolysis system research, the electrocatalytic powder material is often fixed on a conductive substrate by using a binder to perform oxygen evolution reaction, the use of the binder inevitably introduces interface transmission resistance in the processing process, covers active sites on the surface of the material, limits the permeation and diffusion of reactants in an electrode, influences the exertion of the catalytic performance of the material, increases the difficulty of electrode preparation, and severely limits the actual production and application of the oxygen evolution electrocatalyst.
