Description

Preparation method of carbon cloth in-situ growth cobalt oxide nanosheets
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of hydrogen production electrocatalysts by water electrolysis, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a three-dimensional netlike transition metal cobalt oxide electrocatalyst formed by nano sheets in situ grown on a carbon cloth substrate.
Background
In recent years, with the widespread use of fossil fuels, serious energy and environmental crisis have arisen, forcing people to seek alternative energy sources. The hydrogen energy is widely focused by a plurality of scientific researchers because of the advantages of high combustion value, green pollution-free property and the like, and the hydrogen production process equipment for electrolyzing water is simply considered as the hydrogen production technology with the most application prospect. Currently, platinum-based materials are the best catalysts for water electrolysis hydrogen production due to their low overpotential and high current density, however the high cost and scarcity of such materials limit their practical application. Therefore, there is a need to develop and design green, efficient and inexpensive catalysts for producing hydrogen by electrolysis of water.
Recently, the transition metal cobalt-based nano material is found to be an efficient electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction, and has wide application prospect in the fields of super capacitors, lithium ion batteries and the like. However, cobalt-based nanomaterials have the disadvantage of poor conductivity and unstable structure during hydrogen evolution. Research shows that constructing special shapes such as spheres, yolk shells, lines and the like is an effective means for improving the hydrogen production performance of the electrode material by water electrolysis (Sci.Adv., 2019,5, eaav 6009). Wherein the two-dimensional structure can increase the specific surface area of the material, increase the catalytic active site and improve the catalytic activity of the material (ACS appl. Mater. Interfaces,2018,10,25409-25414). However, the nanomaterial size of the lamellar structure is difficult to control and stacking occurs easily to reduce the electrochemical activity of the material. In addition, conventional electrode materials often require the use of binders in the fabrication of the electrode, resulting in a reduction in the active sites of the material. Therefore, the material is loaded on the conductive substrate, so that not only can the conductivity of the material be increased, but also the material can be directly used as an electrode material.

For testing electrochemical hydrogen production performance
The hydrogen production performance test method comprises the following steps: three-electrode system, saturated calomel electrode (reference electrode), graphite rod (counter electrode), coO/CC (working electrode), electrolyte of 0.5. 0.5M H 2 SO 4 A solution. Introducing nitrogen for 30min to remove oxygen before testing, wherein the test method comprises linear voltammetry and sweep speed of 2mV/s; electrochemical impedance method with frequency range of 0.1Hz-10 5 Hz, amplitude of 5mV; timing current curve method, current density 10mA/cm -2 . The test voltage was corrected to the hydrogen electrode formula: e (vs. rhe) =e (vs. sce) +0.242V.

From the impedance plot of the sample, coO/CC has more excellent conductivity at the same voltage. FIG. 7 is a graph of sample stability with no significant change in current density after 18 hours. The scanning electron microscope image (figure 8) of the sample after the stability test shows that the morphology of the sample is not changed obviously, which indicates that the prepared sample has good hydrogen production stability.
