Description

Nickel-based alkaline electrolyzed water catalyst co-doped with and combined with heterostructure and preparation method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of electrochemical catalytic materials, and particularly relates to a co-doped nickel-based alkaline electrolyzed water catalyst combined with a heterostructure and a preparation method thereof.
Background
At present, a good environment is a basis for survival, and sufficient energy is a precondition for social development. The environmental pollution and energy shortage problems faced by today's society are key issues restricting survival and development. Therefore, development of clean renewable energy is urgently needed. The hydrogen energy is used as a new energy source with zero carbon emission, sustainability, reproducibility and high energy density, and is the most environment-friendly clean energy source. Therefore, how to produce hydrogen energy in a low cost, efficient, pollution-free manner has become a research hotspot.
The two half reactions of the electrolyzed water, the hydrogen evolution reaction of the cathode and the oxygen evolution reaction of the anode have the advantages of no carbon emission, sustainable development, high product purity and the like, and are widely paid attention to. The electrolysis of water requires the application of a certain voltage to drive the production of hydrogen and oxygen. In order to reduce the energy consumption and improve the energy conversion efficiency, the process needs a high-efficiency, low-cost and continuous stable catalyst to reduce the energy consumption, thereby realizing the practical application of hydrogen production by water electrolysis. At present, the high-activity catalyst is still a noble metal-based catalyst such as platinum, ruthenium, iridium, rhodium and the like. However, it is expensive and has poor stability, which limits its large-scale application. Therefore, the electrocatalyst with low development cost, high catalytic activity and good stability is a key for practical application of hydrogen production by water electrolysis.
Currently, many non-noble metal-based electrocatalysts, such as Fe, co, ni, mo-based electrocatalysts, have been developed that are excellent in performance, low in cost, and good in stability. In particular, ni-based catalysts have been widely studied because of their good conductivity, high catalytic activity, low cost, easy availability, environmental friendliness, etc., but the catalytic activity and stability of metallic nickel are not very good. Therefore, various strategies have been developed to improve the catalytic activity and stability of nickel, such as metal compound synthesis, alloying, doping with different elements, heterostructures construction, etc. However, most nickel-based catalysts exhibit only good electrocatalytic hydrogen or oxygen evolution properties and are less efficient in water electrolysis due to their different selectivity for catalytic reactions.
Therefore, in order to realize efficient electrolysis of water, it is necessary to develop a bifunctional electrocatalyst having both excellent hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction.
Through the above analysis, the problems and defects existing in the prior art are as follows: the existing nickel-based catalyst has poor catalytic activity and stability and low water electrolysis efficiency.
The difficulty of solving the problems and the defects is as follows: how to synthesize the bifunctional catalyst with high catalytic activity and stable activity through the combination design of various strategies.
The meaning of solving the problems and the defects is as follows: the development of a dual-function electrocatalyst with excellent hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction simultaneously can realize high-efficiency water electrolysis.
