Example 3
Adding 1.20g of ammonium molybdate and 0.387g of polyethylene glycol into a beaker filled with 28mL of water at room temperature, and stirring for 20 min; then adding 4.9ml of nitric acid with the concentration of 65-68%, stirring for 20min, transferring into a polytetrafluoroethylene lining, and carrying out hydrothermal reaction for 22 hours at the constant temperature of 170 ℃; after the reaction is completed, naturally cooling to room temperature, washing with ethanol and water, centrifuging and drying to obtain the molybdenum-based electrocatalystα-MoO3The XRD pattern and SEM pattern were the same as in example 1.
Example 4
Prepared in example 1α-MoO3Mixing with acetylene black and polyvinylidene fluoride in a mass ratio of 8:1:1, dispersing in 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, and stirring to form uniform slurry; the slurry was coated on a nickel foam and then dried at room temperature for 24 hours with a coating area of 1cm × 1cm to obtainα-MoO3And an electrode.

In the three-electrode system, certain voltage is applied, and electrocatalytic performance test is respectively carried out in 1M KOH and 1M KOH (potassium hydroxide) + 0.5M urea.
As can be seen from fig. 3 and 4, the addition of urea greatly reduced the overpotential of the electrolyzed water.
As shown in FIG. 3, for anodic oxidation, in KOH electrolysis system, water oxidation requires a high pressure of 1.611V to reach 40mA/cm2While the KOH + urea electrolytic system can reach 40mA/cm only by 1.365V2
