2、TEM
Fig. 7 is a TEM image of the nano-porous cobalt electrode material obtained in example 5, wherein black shaded areas and white bright areas are clearly observed from the matrix in fig. 7(a), wherein the black shaded areas represent porous structural ligaments, the white bright areas represent porous pores, and the uniformly distributed white bright areas and black shaded areas illustrate that the pore sizes and the ligaments are uniformly distributed, which is consistent with the result observed in the SEM image. In order to better determine the components of the nano-porous structure formed after dealloying, TEM selective diffraction spectrum analysis is performed on the nano-porous structure, and after calibration, as shown in fig. 7(b), three main diffraction rings are (312), (204) and (513) crystal planes of Co, which further proves that the dealloyed amorphous alloy is mainly a nano-porous structure of simple substance Co.
3. Pore size distribution statistical map
Fig. 8 is a statistical graph of the pore size distribution of the nanoporous cobalt electrode material obtained in example 5, and it can be seen from the graph that the pore size distribution is normally distributed, mainly around 40nm, and the pore size distribution is uniform, which further proves the theory that the amorphous alloy generates a uniform nanoporous structure in the dealloying process.
4. Specific surface area
FIG. 9 is a fitting graph of capacitance current and scanning rate of the nanoporous cobalt electrode material and the ZrAlCo amorphous strip obtained in example 5at a voltage of 0.05V, a cyclic voltammetry test is performed on the two materials under a potential condition of 0.05V, response current difference values of oxidation reaction and reduction reaction of the materials at the potential can be obtained, a scanning rate of 10-50mV/s is selected to obtain current difference values at the scanning rates, then linear fitting is performed, the larger the slope of the linear fitting result indicates that the performance in the electrochemical test is better, the ratio of the slope of the fitting straight line is the ratio of the electrochemical active area, and as can be seen from the graph, the obtained result indicates that the slope of the nanoporous cobalt is 13.9 times that of the amorphous alloy strip, that is, the electrochemical specific surface area is 13.9 times that of the amorphous alloy strip, and the electrode material has a larger electrochemical active specific surface area, thereby providing more active sites and accelerating the reaction.
[ Performance test ]
A ZrAlCo amorphous alloy strip, a pure Co simple substance and the nano-porous cobalt electrode material obtained in example 5 are used as working electrodes, a platinum sheet is used as a counter electrode, a saturated calomel electrode is used as a reference electrode, a Methyl Orange (MO) solution with a simulated pollutant of 20mg/L is applied with a square wave potential of 1.5V by using an electrochemical square wave method, a degradation experiment is carried out on methyl orange, and the absorbance of the methyl orange solution before and after degradation is tested, and the result is shown in FIG. 10.
As can be seen from fig. 10, the degradation rates of the pure Co simple substance and the ZrAlCo amorphous alloy strip on methyl orange can only reach 63.03% and 90.53%, respectively, while the degradation rate of the nano-porous cobalt electrode material obtained in example 5 on methyl orange can reach 98.20%. The high catalytic activity of the nano-porous cobalt electrode material benefits from high specific surface area, and ligaments formed by the mutually nested pore channels and the nano-porous structure formed by the metal ligaments are uniformly distributed, so that the dispersity and the specific surface area are increased, and the contact efficiency with pollutants is improved; the porous structure of the porous structure can enable liquid to flow rapidly, provide channels for diffusion and transmission of guest reaction molecules, provide more attachment points for degradation reaction, provide more redox reaction sites and accelerate reaction speed; on the other hand, the porous Co catalytic matrix material does not need to be subjected to load treatment, so that the material can be self-supported, the problem of reduction of the specific surface area caused by agglomeration is solved, the stability of the electrode material is maintained, and the catalytic activity of the electrode material is ensured.
