Description

Selenium-doped nickel hercynite/nickel oxyhydroxide composite electrocatalyst material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a selenium-doped nickel hercynite/nickel oxyhydroxide composite electrocatalyst material and a preparation method and application thereof, belonging to the technical field of electrochemistry.
Background
The rapid increase in carbon dioxide emissions has raised concerns about global warming and has also raised an urgent need for sustainable clean energy. Among various clean energy sources, hydrogen is considered as one of the most promising alternatives to fossil fuels because of its advantages such as excellent energy density and environmental friendliness.
Among various methods for producing hydrogen, electrocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) in alkaline electrolyte has attracted much attention due to its high production safety and product purity. The key problem of the electrochemical water splitting reaction is high energy consumption, and the water electrolysis reaction still needs higher overpotential no matter the anodic Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) or the cathodic Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER), which greatly limits the water electrolysis efficiency. In order to reduce the overpotential of the water electrolysis reaction and reduce the consumption of electric energy, an electro-catalyst with high activity is explored to be an effective way for improving the water electrolysis efficiency and reducing the overpotential of oxygen generation. In the electrocatalytic decomposition of water, the anodic Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) is kinetically more difficult than the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) since it involves a slow four-electron process, which results in a drastic decrease in the efficiency of the water-splitting hydrogen production process. Therefore, the development of the anode oxygen evolution reaction catalyst with high activity and the reduction of the overpotential of the anode oxygen evolution reaction have very important significance for improving the hydrogen production efficiency of the electrolyzed water.
At present, noble metal based materials (IrO)2Or RuO2Etc.) catalysts are still considered to be the most advanced Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) electrocatalysts, but their scarcity and poor stability of materials has hindered their large-scale practical application. Therefore, there is a need to develop a cost-effective and sustainable alternative with electrocatalytic activity comparable to noble metal-based catalysts and abundant on earth. Great efforts have been made to find inexpensive alternatives in transition metal alloys, oxides, hydroxides, selenides and even chalcogenides. In recent years, sulfidation or selenization of transition metal oxides and hydroxides has been found to be an effective method for creating highly active sites in electrochemical processes, and a number of electrocatalysts have been reported. For example, Chinese patent document CN106430122A provides a NiSe2The invention discloses a transition metal chalcogenide nano-sheet, a preparation method and application thereof, wherein a nickel source compound and ammonia water are used as raw materials, and Ni (OH) is grown on a substrate in a heat preservation manner2Nanosheet, then Se displacement to obtain NiSe2Transition metal chalcogenide nanoplatelets. Chinese patent document CN110314690A discloses a bimetallic sulfide Ni with heterogeneous interface coupling3S2The preparation method of the/FeS composite material comprises the following steps: preparing a Ni and Fe-containing double metal hydroxide precursor by an electrodeposition methodAnd performing in-situ vulcanization treatment to form the dual-phase Ni and Fe sulfide composite material with a heterogeneous interface. However, the above catalysts have disadvantages of high overpotential or poor stability and complicated preparation process, so that the search for a stable and efficient catalyst is urgent.
Therefore, the preparation of an efficient and stable transition metal-based catalyst remains a very challenging issue. At present, no report is found on a method for accurately synthesizing a selenium-doped nickel hercynite/nickel oxyhydroxide composite electrocatalyst material.
