Description

Core-shell copper selenide @ nickel iron hydrotalcite electrocatalyst, preparation method thereof and application of electrocatalyst in water electrolysis
The technical field is as follows:
the invention relates to a core-shell copper selenide @ ferronickel hydrotalcite (Cu) for effectively improving the efficiency of water electrolysis2The invention discloses a Se @ NiFe-LDH) electrocatalyst and a preparation method thereof, relates to a catalysis effect of a core-shell copper selenide @ nickel iron hydrotalcite electrocatalyst prepared by the preparation method on an Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) and a Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) under an alkaline condition, and belongs to the field of electrocatalysis.
Background art:
the electrolysis of water has great significance for reducing petrochemical energy requirements and protecting the environment. However, in acidic and alkaline electrolytes, the electrolyzed water needs to break the O-H bond and release electrons to form O ═ O double bonds, and the kinetic process is very slow, usually requiring a potential higher than 1.23V, i.e. a large overpotential. Therefore, it is desirable to use a high activity catalyst to reduce the overpotential to achieve efficient water splitting. Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) is the bottleneck for water decomposition, albeit with noble metal catalysts, such as RuO2And IrO2However, it is expensive, scarce, and requires a large overpotential to drive the OER. Therefore, the development of an efficient, abundant and cheap OER non-noble metal catalyst is one of the subjects of current renewable energy research.
Transition double metal hydroxides (LDHs) have potential application values due to their compositional diversity and stability. Studies have shown that bimetallic NiFe-LDH has higher catalytic activity and lower overpotential than LDH containing only a single Ni or Fe component. However, the HER performance of NiFe-LDH is not satisfactory. Research shows that strong interaction between transition metal hydroxide and other metal compounds plays an important role in the structure and electrochemical properties of the constructed composite. Transition metal selenides are considered a promising class of support materials because they have unique electronic configurations and reasonably good catalytic activity, and can serve to modulate the OER and HER properties of LDHs. The specific surface area, the conductivity and the stability of the composite catalyst can be improved through reasonable structural design, and the electrocatalytic activity of the composite catalyst is further promoted.
The invention uses Cu2Se is used as a supporting carrier, and a core-shell Cu is prepared by an electrodeposition method2Se @ ferronickel hydrotalcite-like compound Cu2Se @ NiFe-LDH. The method optimizes the deposition conditions by controlling the deposition time and the concentration and proportion of electrolyte metal ions, tests the electrochemical performance of CuSe @ NiFe-LDH with different deposition times, and contrastively analyzes the influence of the deposition time on the appearance and the catalytic performance of the catalyst; cu produced by different metal ion concentrations2Se @ NiFe-LDH performance test is carried out, and the influence of the metal ion concentration on the appearance and the catalytic performance of the catalyst is comparatively analyzed; cu produced by different metal ion ratios2Se @ NiFe-LDH performance test is carried out, the influence of the metal ion ratio on the morphology and the catalytic performance of the catalyst is contrastively analyzed, the optimal condition of electrodeposition is obtained, and the core-shell Cu is prepared2Se @ NiFe-LDH electrode material and system research on the electrolytic water property of the material, and research work related to the material is not reported.
