Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of new electrocatalytic materials, in particular to an IrCoFe @ MXene composite catalyst and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Since fossil fuel is a non-renewable primary energy source, the problems of resource shortage, environmental pollution, climate change and the like brought by the fossil fuel bring great pressure on energy supply, and therefore carbon reduction and hydrogen increase are imperative to the development of clean energy. The hydrogen energy has the advantages of high efficiency, cleanness, reproducibility and the like, occupies an important position in the industrial fields of aerospace, electronic appliances and the like and human life, has an irreplaceable effect on fuel power, and is one of the most potential energy sources for solving the future energy crisis. Hydrogen is an ideal secondary energy source, and has a high hydrogen calorific value and an energy density more than twice that of solid fuel, compared with other energy sources. Hydrogen is an excellent energy storage medium for renewable and sustainable energy systems. The hydrogen as an energy carrier has the advantages that: the hydrogen and the electric energy can be efficiently converted into each other by the water electrolysis technology; the compressed hydrogen has a very high energy density; hydrogen has the potential to scale up to grid-scale applications.
Among the hydrogen production by water electrolysis based on renewable energy, PEM hydrogen production by water electrolysis is a potential industrial process that can produce large amounts of high purity hydrogen without the release of traditional by-products associated with fossil fuels, and avoids the disadvantages of alkaline liquid electrolyzers using strongly alkaline liquid electrolytes. Has the advantages of high efficiency, high gas purity, environmental protection, low energy consumption, no alkali liquor, small volume, safety, reliability, capability of realizing higher gas production pressure and the like.
Electrocatalytic decomposition of water, including Oxygen Evolution Reactions (OERs) and Hydrogen Evolution Reactions (HERs), where OER is the rate-determining step in electrocatalytic decomposition of water, has been accomplished with a number of anode catalysts effective in increasing OER history, e.g., the noble metal RuO2Transition non-noble metals cobalt and nickelOxides, and the like. However, there has been little development of electrocatalysts that are effective in promoting OER in acidic electrolytes. Iridium (Ir) is generally considered to be the best catalyst for OER under acidic conditions, its reserves are scarce and its abundance is even 10 times lower than that of platinum. In order to reduce the consumption of noble metal Ir, the commonly used means at present is to improve the activity of Ir-based catalyst by changing the atomic arrangement or to form a core-shell structure or alloy nanoparticles by adding non-noble metal ions and Ir, thereby changing the electronic performance of Ir, improving the water electrolysis efficiency and simultaneously reducing the consumption of Ir metal. For example, by adding Ni metal ions to Ir oxide, the resulting NiIr alloy oxide can improve the OER performance to some extent. In order to reduce the cost of PEM electrolytic cells, a simpler preparation method is designed, the dosage of noble metal Ir is reduced, and the stability and durability of the catalyst are imperatively maintained.
In view of this, the invention is particularly proposed.
