Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of cobalt phosphide nano particles, which takes sodium hypophosphite as a phosphorus source at the temperature of 300 ℃ by a low-temperature phosphorization method to successfully convert an elemental cobalt nano particle thin film which is tightly grown on carbon cloth into cobalt phosphide nano particles (CoPNPS/CC). CoPNPS/CC shows excellent activity and stability for catalyzing hydrogen evolution. CoP particles and CoP and carbon cloth fibers are tightly connected together, which is beneficial to the mutual transmission of electrons so as to accelerate the decomposition efficiency of water. In addition, the flexibility of the carbon cloth enables CoPNPS/CC to grow on the surface of the carbon cloth tightly to form a uniform nano particle film, and in addition, the conductivity of the carbon cloth is favorable for electrons to flow freely between the CoPNPs/CC so as to accelerate the reaction; the three-dimensional structure of the carbon cloth is beneficial to the generated hydrogen to be quickly separated out, and the covering of the active sites caused by the accumulation of bubbles on the surface of the catalyst is reduced.

Description

Preparation method of cobalt phosphide nano-particles
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of hydrogen evolution catalysts, in particular to a preparation method of cobalt phosphide nanoparticles.
Background
The water electrolysis is one of the simplest methods for preparing high-purity hydrogen on a large scale, and the use of an electrocatalyst can obviously reduce the additional energy consumed by the water electrolysis. Since water electrolysis apparatuses based on proton exchange membrane technology need to be operated in strongly acidic electrolytes, it is essential to develop a hydrogen evolution catalyst that can be stably present in acidic electrolytes. At present, platinum group nano materials are still the catalysts with the highest catalytic performance in the acid electrolyte, but the high price caused by the scarcity of the platinum group nano materials severely restricts the application of the platinum group nano materials in water electrolysis and hydrogen evolution. Therefore, the development of the catalyst with high efficiency and low cost can effectively reduce the cost of hydrogen evolution. Initially, nickel-based materials were applied to hydrogen evolution catalysts under acidic conditions, and although nickel-based catalysts showed a certain catalytic activity, the materials were easily corroded in an acidic electrolyte and could not be used stably for a long period of time. After decades of intense research efforts, researchers have developed many stable and efficient acidic hydrogen evolution low-cost catalysts, including transition metal sulfides, carbides, nitrides, phosphides, and the like. Among a plurality of transition metal nano materials, the cobalt-based nano material has good application prospect. Phosphide is a high-efficiency hydrogen evolution catalyst developed in recent years, and a plurality of researchers try to prepare cobalt phosphide nano materials in consideration of the special electronic structure of cobalt element. For example, Schaak group prepared uniformly dispersed cobalt phosphide nanoparticles by heating and refluxing with trioctylphosphine as a phosphorus source with the aid of an organic reagent. In addition, the Sunxiaping group prepared carbon nanotube-supported phosphide-diamond nanoparticles by a low-temperature phosphating method and demonstrated good catalytic hydrogen evolution activity. The phosphorized diamond nano particles prepared by the method all need to use a polymer adhesive to fix the polymer adhesive on a conductive electrode to prepare a cathode of electrolyzed water for catalyzing hydrogen evolution, and the adhesive with relatively weak conductivity can possibly shield active sites to reduce mass transfer efficiency so as to influence the activity of the catalyst.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the defects of the prior art, the invention provides a preparation method of cobalt phosphide nanoparticles, which solves the problem that a relatively weak-conductivity adhesive possibly shields active sites to reduce mass transfer efficiency so as to influence the activity of a catalyst.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention is realized by the following technical scheme: a preparation method of cobalt phosphide nanoparticles specifically comprises the following steps:
s1, adding cobalt chloride hexahydrate and polyvinylpyrrolidone into N, N-dimethylformamide, and heating and stirring at 80 ℃ until the cobalt chloride hexahydrate and the polyvinylpyrrolidone are dissolved to obtain a viscous solution;
s2, soaking the carbon cloth into the viscous solution obtained in the step S1, and then drying the carbon cloth attached with the cobalt precursor at 80 ℃;
s3, putting the carbon cloth in a tubular furnace in a protective gas atmosphere, raising the temperature to a certain temperature at a speed of 10 ℃/min, and continuously maintaining for 2h to obtain simple substance cobalt nanoparticles (CoNPs/CC) uniformly growing on the surface of the carbon cloth;
s4, then, placing CoNPs/CC and a phosphorus source in a tubular furnace in a protective gas atmosphere, raising the temperature to a certain temperature at the speed of 2 ℃/min, and continuously maintaining for 2 h;
s5, finally, obtaining the cobalt phosphide nano particles (CoPNPS/CC) after the tube furnace is naturally cooled.
Preferably, the shielding gas in steps S4 and S3 includes one or more of nitrogen, helium, neon and argon.
Preferably, the certain temperature in step S3 is 600 ℃.
Preferably, the phosphorus source in step S4 is sodium hypophosphite.
Preferably, the certain temperature in step S4 is 300 ℃.
Advantageous effects
The invention provides a preparation method of cobalt phosphide nanoparticles. Compared with the prior art, the method has the following beneficial effects: according to the preparation method of the cobalt phosphide nano-particle, the Co NPs/CC is successfully converted into the CoP NPs/CC by taking sodium hypophosphite as a phosphorus source and adopting a low-temperature phosphating method at 300 ℃. As a self-supporting membrane electrode, CoP NPs/CC shows excellent activity and stability for catalyzing hydrogen evolution. Besides good catalytic activity of the CoP NPs, the special structure of the CoP NPs/CC also contributes greatly to the overall catalytic performance of the electrode. Firstly, CoP particles and CoP and carbon cloth fibers are tightly connected, and the interconnected structure is beneficial to the mutual transmission of electrons in the electrochemical test process so as to accelerate the decomposition efficiency of water. In addition, the carbon cloth substrate mainly has the following two functions: 1) the flexibility of the carbon cloth enables CoP NPs/CC to grow on the surface of the carbon cloth tightly to form a uniform nano particle film, and in addition, the conductivity of the carbon cloth is favorable for electrons to flow freely between the CoP NPs/CC so as to accelerate the reaction; 2) the three-dimensional structure of the carbon cloth is beneficial to the generated hydrogen to be quickly separated out, and the covering of the active sites caused by the accumulation of bubbles on the surface of the catalyst is reduced.
