Technical Field

Background
With the increasing global energy demand, the increasing shortage of traditional fossil fuels and the continuous deterioration of natural environment, people have conducted extensive research on efficient energy conversion and storage technologies. Electrochemical Oxygen Evolution Reactions (OERs) have attracted increasing attention and research as half-reactions for the electrolysis of water and metal air batteries. Since the kinetics of the OER process is slow, the development of highly active electrocatalysts is urgently required in order to reduce the applied potential of the electrocatalytic reaction. The Ru/Ir-based electrocatalyst has excellent catalytic activity and stability, and can improve energy conversion efficiency in both acidic and alkaline solutions. However, the high cost of the above noble metal-based catalysts and scarcity of earth resources have hindered their widespread development and application.
The graphene-based catalyst can effectively load various functional nanoparticles, inhibit accumulation and aggregation of the nanoparticles, has good conductivity and is beneficial to electron transmission. In addition, structural adjustment is an effective method for improving catalytic performance. Mesoporous nanomaterials are considered to be one of the most effective strategies for enhancing electrochemical performance due to their large specific surface area, sufficient active sites and uniformly adjustable channels. The unique nanostructure loading the mesoporous metal particles on the surface of the graphene can not only enhance the interface contact of the graphene, but also inhibit the agglomeration of the mesoporous particles, so that the graphene has strong mechanical strength. Meanwhile, the mesoporous structure can expose more electrocatalytic active sites, and the electrocatalytic performance is enhanced. Therefore, the close combination of the mesoporous metal and the graphene can integrate and enhance the advantages of the mesoporous metal and the graphene, and a new idea is provided for the design and development of the OER electrocatalyst. However, obtaining highly uniform mesoporous metals and tightly binding with graphene have great difficulties, and thus the synthesis of mesoporous metal particle/rGO composite nanostructures is extremely challenging.
The invention provides a new synthesis method for preparing a graphene-loaded mesoporous metal alloy nano composite material, and the graphene-loaded mesoporous nickel-iron alloy electrocatalyst with high activity and high stability is synthesized by combining a lyotropic liquid crystal template method and a chemical reduction method.
