Description

Preparation method of copper oxide doped nickel-iron hydrotalcite nanosheet/graphene bifunctional water decomposition catalyst
The technical field is as follows:
the invention belongs to the technical field of new energy materials and electrocatalysis, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a copper oxide-doped ultrathin nickel-iron hydrotalcite nanosheet/graphene bifunctional water decomposition catalyst, which further comprises electrocatalysis application of the catalyst in oxygen evolution reaction and hydrogen evolution reaction of water electrolysis in an alkaline medium
Background art:
with the environmental issues such as global warming caused by fossil fuels becoming prominent, hydrogen energy has attracted considerable attention as an ideal new energy source for researchers, including efficient storage and conversion of hydrogen energy. The slow progress of Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) and Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) involved in the hydrogen energy storage process is one of the main problems hindering the application and popularization of the electrolyzed water. In the apparatus for electrolyzing water, noble metals Pt and alloys thereof are commonly used as the catalyst for HER, and noble metals Ru, Ir and oxides thereof are used as the catalyst for OER. The noble metal catalyst has limited application in new energy due to its small earth reserve, high price and other factors. And these noble metal catalysts can only catalyze either OER or HER singly. Therefore, research and development of a bifunctional electrocatalyst which can be easily produced and used as a non-noble metal and can simultaneously act on HER and OER becomes a hot research point.
The nickel-iron-based material comprises nickel-iron hydroxide and oxide, and has good OER catalytic performance. Wherein the nickel-iron hydroxide is also called nickel-iron hydrotalcite, which is a two-dimensional layered material with a general formula of [ Ni ]1-x 2+Fex 3+(OH)2]x+(An-)x/n·mH2O, consisting of a positively charged hydroxide layer and an interlayer anion in charge balance therewith. The earth element reserves are abundant, so the method has good prospect in practical application. In the practical application process, the NiFe-LDH catalyst material also has the defects of small specific surface area, poor conductivity, easy aggregation, poor stability and the like. In order to overcome the defects, researchers peel LDH into single-layer or multi-layer hydrotalcite-like nano-sheets (LDHNS) to improve the specific surface area and the active site of the LDHNS, and simultaneously compound materials such as some carbon materials including Graphene (GR) and Carbon Nano Tubes (CNT) with the LDHNS to improve the conductivity of the composite material, prevent the LDHNS from aggregating and improve the performance of the composite material. GR is an sp2Two-dimensional material with one carbon atom thickness and formed by hybridization of carbon atoms and with ultrahigh specific surface area (2600 m)2Per gram) and excellent conductivity (-10)6S/cm) can greatly improve charge transfer and mass transfer efficiency in electrocatalytic reactions. And negatively charged oxidized stoneThe electrostatic accumulation of Graphene (GO) and LDH nano-sheets with positive charges at the face-to-face molecular level can enable transition metal catalytic centers in the LDH nano-sheets to be in contact with conductive sp2The hybridized carbon atoms are in close contact, and the diffusion distance of the electrolyte is greatly shortened. Although the problems of poor conductivity, aggregation and the like of the LDH material can be solved by compounding LDH and GR by electrostatic assembly, the efficiency of electrolytic oxygen evolution at high potential has a certain limit, i.e. the response current density of the catalyst at high potential is small. In recent years, many reports have been made on obtaining a water-decomposing catalyst by electrodeposition on a copper foil, a copper mesh, or a copper sheet, and the response current density at a high potential is large. Therefore, copper is uniformly doped in the crystal lattice of the nickel-iron hydrotalcite in the form of copper oxide, and an unexpected effect can be achieved on the electrocatalytic water decomposition of the nickel-iron hydrotalcite.
In order to simplify the preparation method of the catalyst and improve the performability of industrial production, divalent nickel, divalent copper and trivalent iron are dissolved in a mixed solution of formamide and water of GO, diluted alkali is used for direct titration, ultrathin CuNiFe-LDHNS grows in situ on a GO substrate, and the copper oxide doped ultrathin nickel-iron-nickel-like hydrotalcite nanosheet/graphene (CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO) water decomposition catalyst is prepared through thermochemical reduction treatment. At present, the CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO water decomposition catalyst prepared by the method and the research of the catalyst used for the water electrolysis reaction under the alkaline condition are not reported.
According to the method, the graphene oxide is used as a substrate, the ultrathin CuNiFe-LDHNS grows in situ in a mixed solution of formamide and water, and the CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO catalyst is prepared by thermal chemical reduction, so that the complex steps of LDH stripping, doping CuO after LDH synthesis and the like are avoided, the specific surface area of the catalyst is increased, the active catalytic sites of the catalyst are enriched, and the overpotentials of OER and HER are reduced, so that the electrocatalytic performance of the catalyst on water decomposition is improved. The electrocatalyst prepared by the method fully exerts the synergistic effect of CuO, ultrathin NiFe-LDHNS and rGO on the aspect of electrocatalysis, and has important significance for developing a novel bifunctional water-splitting electrocatalyst.
The invention content is as follows:

The invention also aims to provide application of the copper oxide-doped ultrathin nickel-iron hydrotalcite nanosheet/graphene bifunctional catalyst in oxygen evolution reaction and hydrogen evolution reaction of water electrolysis in an alkaline medium.
According to the method, graphene oxide is used as a substrate, ultrathin CuNiFe-LDHNS grows in situ in a mixed solution of formamide and water, and then chemical reduction is performed to prepare the CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO water decomposition catalyst, so that the steps of LDH stripping, doping CuO after LDH synthesis and the like are avoided, the active sites of the catalyst are increased, the overpotentials of OER and HER are reduced, and the electrocatalytic performance of the catalyst is improved.

Comparative example 2:

And from the mapping graph (c) of copper, CuO is uniformly doped in the LDHNS, so that more edge sites appear in the LDHNS, and the doping of CuO causes the LDHNS to generate more defects, so that CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO has more active sites and catalytic centers, and is more beneficial to the adsorption of water molecules and hydroxide radicals on the surface of the catalyst and the desorption of hydrogen and oxygen in the electrochemical catalysis process, thereby improving the comprehensive water decomposition catalytic performance of the catalyst.
FIG. 2 is an XRD pattern of the CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO composite obtained in example 1 and the NiFe-LDHNS/rGO obtained in comparative example 2. As shown in the figure, both CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO and NiFe-LDHNS/rGO show the characteristic peak of the LDH, which indicates that the NiFe-LDH in the two compounds keeps good crystal characteristics. In addition, the XRD pattern of CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO also shows characteristic peaks of (111), (200) and (202) crystal faces of CuO, but the width of characteristic diffraction peaks of LDHNS and CuO in the composite is widened to some extent, the intensity is also reduced, the ultrathin characteristic of LHDNS and the low crystallinity of CuO are fully explained, and the electrocatalytic activity is favorably exerted.
Example 5:
respectively dispersing 10mg of the catalysts obtained in example 1, example 3, example 4, comparative example 1 and comparative example 2 in 300 muL of ethanol and 30 muL of 0.5 percent Nafion solution, ultrasonically mixing the solutions, dripping 4 muL of slurry on a glassy carbon electrode, tabletting after completely drying the glassy carbon electrode on an electrochemical workstation CHI660D to measure the OER electro-catalytic performance of the glassy carbon electrode;
the electrocatalysis performance tests all use a saturated Hg/HgO electrode as a reference electrode, a Pt electrode as a counter electrode, the sweep rate is 10mV/s, and the electrolyte is 0.1M KOH.
Example 6:
dispersing 10mg of the catalyst (solid content 8.36%) obtained in example 1 in 300. mu.L of ethanol and 30. mu.L of 0.5% Nafion solution, ultrasonically mixing the solution, dripping 3. mu.L of the slurry on a rotating disk electrode, and after the slurry is completely dried, measuring the HER electrocatalytic properties of the slurry on a CHI660D electrochemical workstation at a rotating speed of 1600 rmp;
the electrocatalysis performance tests all use a saturated Hg/HgO electrode as a reference electrode, a carbon rod electrode as a counter electrode, the sweep rate is 10mV/s, the sweep rate direction is from positive potential to negative potential, and the electrolyte is 0.1M KOH.
FIG. 3 is 2.5% CuO obtained in example 1An OER linear voltammogram of a glassy carbon electrode modified by an NiFe-LDHNS/rGO compound, a 1% CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO compound obtained in example 3, and a 5% CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO compound obtained in example 4. As shown in the figure, the OER initial overpotential of the electrode modified by 2.5% CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO compound is 260mV, which is significantly lower than 1% CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO compound (290mV) and 5% CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO compound (300 mV). Meanwhile, when the current density is 10mA/cm2The overpotentials for the 2.5% CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO composite, the 1% CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/GO composite, and the 5% CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO composite were approximately 272, 319, and 301mV, respectively. Obviously, the doping of 2.5% of Cu in the crystal lattice of the ultrathin nickel-iron hydrotalcite is the optimal amount for improving the performance of the catalyst.
FIG. 4 is the OER linear voltammogram of the 2.5% CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO composite obtained in example 1, the CuNiFe-LDHNS/GO composite obtained in example 2, the NiFe-LDHNS/GO obtained in comparative example 1, and the NiFe-LDHNS/rGO modified glassy carbon electrode obtained in comparative example 2. The initial overpotential for 2.5% CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO is 233mV, almost the same as NiFe-LDHNS/rGO, but significantly lower than the overpotentials (248 and 245mV, respectively) for CuNiFe-LDHNS/GO and NiFe-LDHNS/GO. However, the CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO reaches 10mA/cm2The corresponding overpotential is 252mV, which is lower than NiFe-LDHNS/rGO, CuNiFe-LDHNS/GO and NiFe-LDHNS/GO (254, 272 and 275mV respectively); and when the current density reaches 100mA/cm2When the catalyst is used, the overpotential corresponding to CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO is 289mV, which is obviously lower than 322mV corresponding to NiFe-LDHNS/rGO, which shows that the doping of CuO effectively increases the OER catalytic performance of the catalyst.
FIG. 5 is a constant voltage test chart of the 2.5% CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO composite modified glassy carbon electrode obtained in example 1 under 1.53V. As shown in the figure, 12h of test shows that the OER current density of the CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO is only slightly attenuated, which shows that the CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO shows good OER catalytic stability in an alkaline solution and has longer service life.
FIG. 6 is a graph showing 2.5% CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO composite obtained in example 1, CuNiFe-LDHNS/GO composite obtained in example 2, NiFe-LDHNS/GO obtained in comparative example 1, and NiFe-LDHNS/rGO modified in comparative example 2HER linear voltammogram of RDE. As shown in the figure, compared with NiFe-LDHNS/rGO, the HER initial potential of 2.5 percent CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO catalyst is slightly shifted positively to reach-10 mA/cm2The overpotential is reduced from 360mV to 320mV, which is obviously lower than that of samples NiFe-LDHNS/GO and NiFe-LDHNS/rGO which are not doped with CuO, so that the method can be inferred that the CuO is doped into the ultrathin nickel iron hydrotalcite, the mass transfer rate and the electron transfer rate can be obviously improved, and the HER catalytic performance of the composite catalyst is improved.
FIG. 7 is a linear sweep voltammogram of an electrolytic cell assembled with 2.5% CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO composite obtained in example 1, CuNiFe-LDHNS/GO composite obtained in example 2, NiFe-LDHNS/GO obtained in comparative example 1, and NiFe-LDHNS/rGO obtained in comparative example 2 as cathode and anode, respectively, to catalyze the water electrolysis reaction in 0.1M KOH. As shown, the 2.5% CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO complex electrocatalyzed water decomposition with an initial overpotential of 310mV, which is the same as the NiFe-LDHNS/rGO complex but lower than the CuNiFe-LDHNS/GO complex (330mV) and the NiFe-LDHNS/GO (370 mV). Up to 10mA/cm2When the current density is high, the overpotential corresponding to CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO is 362mV, which is obviously lower than the overpotentials (372, 406 and 432mV) corresponding to NiFe-LDHNS/rGO, CuNiFe-LDHNS/GO and NiFe-LDHNS/GO, which indicates that the doping of CuO causes LDHNS to generate more defects, increases CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO active sites and catalytic centers, and the reduction of GO into rGO increases the conductivity of the catalyst, therefore, CuO-NiFe-LDHNS/rGO shows good bifunctional water decomposition catalytic performance.
