Description

Group-modified noble metal-based carbon dioxide electro-reduction catalyst and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a catalyst for electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide, in particular to a conductive polymer modified noble metal-based carbon dioxide electroreduction catalyst, a method for preparing the conductive polymer modified noble metal-based carbon dioxide electroreduction catalyst by in-situ polymerization, and the conductive polymer modified noble metal-based carbon dioxide electroreduction catalyst used as the catalyst for electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide to reduce CO2A method for synthesizing ethylene with high selectivity, belonging to the greenhouse gas emission reduction and resource utilizationAnd the synthesis and application fields of electrocatalytic materials.
Background
Fossil fuels have become a major source of human energy since the industrial revolution in the sixties of the eighteenth century. Fossil fuels in nature may be exhausted by humans in their entirety for hundreds of years. Meanwhile, the environmental impact of the products of fossil fuel combustion, greenhouse gases represented by carbon dioxide, is also becoming more and more significant. The world weather organization (WMO) global atmospheric monitoring system collects observation data showing the present atmospheric CO2The concentration was 145% of the pre-industrial level. The greenhouse effect will have a series of disastrous consequences, such as: glacier melting and sea level rising; exacerbation of the early effects, frequent extreme weather; plant diseases and insect pests, reduced yield of grains, global drought and the like.
Compared with other greenhouse gas treatment means, the electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide has many advantages: firstly, the existing carbon dioxide can be used as a raw material, the carbon dioxide does not need to be prepared again, and the energy problem and the environmental problem are solved; secondly, the reaction condition is mild and controllable; thirdly, the variety of the reduction product can be artificially controlled to obtain the required product.
The catalyst for carbon dioxide electroreduction also presents specificity due to the difference of adsorption strength of the catalyst to CO intermediate and H intermediate. Such as: a metal catalyst represented by tin, lead, bismuth, cobalt, mercury, and indium tends to reduce carbon dioxide to formic acid; noble metals such as gold, silver, palladium, etc. tend to reduce carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide. The reduction of carbon dioxide to hydrocarbons with higher value and energy density (e.g., ethylene) is more valuable than formic acid and carbon monoxide. Copper is currently the only metal electrocatalyst capable of reducing carbon dioxide to hydrocarbons due to its unique binding energy with reaction intermediates.
Although hydrocarbons have a higher industrial added value than other reduction products, the synthesis of hydrocarbons involves multiple electron transfer and is more difficult to achieve. Thus, carbon dioxide is reduced to ethylene (2 CO)2+12H++12e-→C2H4+4H2O) is a research with wide prospect, and the research can realize the emission reduction of greenhouse gases and the conversion of high value-added chemical products. The catalyst capable of generating ethylene by electrocatalysis of carbon dioxide has fewer types, and the current catalyst with ethylene selectivity is mainly concentrated on a copper catalyst. For other metals, CO is catalyzed2Reduction to ethylene still lacks effective means. Therefore, it is of practical significance to develop a catalyst capable of reducing carbon dioxide to ethylene and to broaden the selection range of the catalyst.

In order to achieve the technical purpose, the invention provides a group-modified noble metal-based carbon dioxide electro-reduction catalyst which is formed by coating a noble metal substrate with a conductive polymer.
The present invention is directed to modifying an existing noble metal catalyst with a conductive polymer comprisingVarious functional groups, such as imidazole, amino, hydroxyl and the like, which can form coordinate bonds with the transition metal, so that the conductive polymer can be stably coated on the surface of the noble metal catalyst, and the stability of the noble metal catalyst is improved; in addition, a large number of experiments find that the groups are favorable for stabilizing intermediates such as carbon monoxide generated in the reduction process of the carbon dioxide, can promote the further hydrogenation of the carbon monoxide intermediates to form ethylene, has a remarkable adjusting effect on the catalytic selectivity of the noble metal catalyst, and can obviously improve the reduction of the carbon dioxide (CO)2RR) the selectivity of ethylene in the product changes the current situation that the noble metal catalyst can only carry out specific electrocatalytic reduction on carbon dioxide to generate carbon monoxide.
In a preferred embodiment, the noble metal substrate is nano silver or nano gold. The noble metal matrix is a common carbon dioxide electro-reduction catalyst type in the prior art, such as silver nanowires and the like. These noble metal catalysts are carbon dioxide electro-reduction catalysts that can electro-reduce carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide, which are common in the art.
In a preferred embodiment, the conductive polymer includes at least one functional group selected from imidazole, benzene ring, amino group, and hydroxyl group.
In a preferred embodiment, the conductive polymer is at least one of PIL (imidazole ring-containing ionic liquid polymer), PPL (polyphenol), and PANI (polyaniline).
Preferably, the mass ratio of the conductive polymer to the noble metal matrix is 1:100 to 40: 100. Within the preferred ratio range, it is ensured that the conductive polymer forms a relatively stable coating layer of a suitable thickness on the surface of the noble metal catalyst.
The invention also provides a preparation method of the group-modified noble metal-based carbon dioxide electro-reduction catalyst, which is characterized in that a conductive polymer monomer is generated by an in-situ polymerization method and is coated on the surface of the noble metal substrate.

In a preferable scheme, the concentration of the potassium bicarbonate solution is 0.1-0.7 mol/L.
The group-modified noble metal-based carbon dioxide electro-reduction catalyst is applied to electro-catalysis of CO2The reaction mechanism for the reduction to ethylene:
first, carbon dioxide is reduced to carbon monoxide intermediates at the silver nanowire surface:
CO2(g)+H++2e-→COOH-;COOH-+H+→CO(adsorption state)+H2O;
If the carbon monoxide intermediate can not be stably adsorbed on the surface of the catalyst at this time, the carbon monoxide can be released in the form of gas products, which is the reason that the silver nanowires before modification can only generate carbon monoxide:
CO(adsorption state)→CO;
When a conductive polymer containing different groups is presentDuring the process, the polymer on the surface of the silver nanowire can stabilize a carbon monoxide intermediate and conduct protons, so that carbon monoxide has an opportunity to be coupled and hydrogenated, and the catalyst which can only generate carbon monoxide originally has the ability of generating ethylene: 2CO +8H+→C2H4+2H2O; the reaction process is schematically shown in FIG. 7.
The noble metal matrix of the invention is preferably silver nanowires (AgNWs), and compared with noble metal materials such as gold, palladium and the like, silver is relatively low in cost and easy to prepare. The invention takes the synthesis method of the silver nanowires as an example for explanation: mixing 40mL of ethylene glycol and 10mL of diethylene glycol, adding 0.66g of polyvinylpyrrolidone, adding 0.2mL of sodium chloride solution and sodium bromide solution after the solution is clarified, adding 0.54g of silver nitrate, heating the solution to 145 ℃, maintaining the temperature for 4 hours, and finally obtaining the silver nanowires through centrifugal separation.
