Description

Foam metal loaded bi-spinel type oxide CuCo 2 O 4 -Co 3 O 4 Preparation and application of derivatives thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of nano composite materials, in particular to a foam metal loaded bi-spinel oxide CuCo 2 O 4 -Co 3 O 4 And the preparation and application of the derivative thereof.
Background
The excessive use and rapid depletion of fossil energy such as coal, oil, and natural gas have caused global warming and other environmental problems, and thus the development of sustainable and environmentally friendly energy is imperative. The hydrogen energy has high efficiency and zero CO 2 The advantages of emissions are considered to be the most promising renewable energy source, however the low efficiency of hydrogen production from electrolysis of water makes efficient and clean hydrogen production technology still a challenge. In general, the electrocatalyst that works best for the OER reaction in alkaline electrolytes is RuO 2 And IrO 2 The high cost and low abundance on earth of noble metal-based oxides hinders their application and industrialization. Therefore, it is important to develop an electrocatalyst that is efficient, inexpensive, and has high stability.
Researches find that the transition metal and the derivatives thereof have high catalytic activity while being low in price, and are very suitable to be used as substitutes of noble metal catalysts. AB composed of 3d transition metals 2 O 4 The spinel oxide (A, B = transition metal) has good electrochemical activity, oxygen is arranged according to cubic close packing in the crystal structure of the spinel oxide, divalent metal cations are filled in one eighth of tetrahedral voids, and trivalent metal cationsThe cations fill in one-half of the octahedral voids, the remaining unoccupied interstitial spaces tend to open the spinel structure to accommodate the migration of the cations, and the mixed valency of the metal cations also helps provide donor-acceptor sites for oxygen adsorption, thereby facilitating the water electrolysis reaction. That is, the introduction of other atoms into the crystal lattice can greatly affect the electronic structure of the original catalyst, thereby enhancing the inherent activity and conductivity of the catalyst.
Besides, there is a more specific spinel oxide Co 3 O 4 . Co is a large storage, low cost and efficient oxygen evolution in alkaline solutions 3 O 4 Spinel type oxides are considered to be one of the best OER catalysts. It is generally believed that the 3d empty or semi-empty orbitals of Co can interact with pi electrons of oxygen and reduce the adsorption energy of O, HO and HO in the center of the 3d band, while the introduction of other atoms can improve the oxygen evolution performance of the cobalt-based catalyst, promote the breaking of Co-O bonds and the formation of O-O bonds, to increase the electrical conductivity of the material and accelerate proton transport. Since the Cu-based compound has a structure corresponding to O 2 Similar bionic chemical action makes the Cu-based electrocatalyst attract much attention, and the introduction of Cu into the Co-based electrocatalyst can change not only the environment around the 3d orbit and 3d electron of Co, but also increase the adsorption energy of water and change the Gibbs free energy of adsorption intermediates, thereby improving the catalytic activity of the catalyst.
