Comparative example 1
According to the same steps as described example 1 was repeated in a manner such that, however, the operation of step (3) is omitted, and white TiO is obtained in step (2) 2 And (3) carrying out the operation of the steps (4) and (5) to obtain the target product.
The catalysts prepared in examples 1 to 6 and comparative example 1 above were examined for their catalytic activity analysis, SEM analysis, TEM, XRD and Raman analysis, EPR analysis, XPS analysis, and photoelectric property analysis, and the results were as follows:
as is evident from FIG. 1, the Au nanoparticles of example 1 are supported on H-TiO as is evident from the scanning electron microscope image and the transmission electron microscope (FIG. 1a, FIG. 1 b) 2 Nanoparticle surfaces.
As shown in FIG. 2, the TiO of example 1 2 The crystal form of (2) was changed to the rutile form as compared with the crystal form of comparative example 1. In the figure, the angle 2 theta is about 27.4 degrees, 36.0 degrees, 39.2 degrees, 41.17 degrees, 54.3 degrees, 56.6 degrees, 62.7 degrees, 64.1 degrees, 68.9 degrees and 69.7 degreesIs typical of rutile TiO 2 The diffraction peak of the 2 theta angle of 38.17 degrees and 77.58 degrees corresponds to the diffraction peaks of the (111) and (311) crystal planes of the Au face-centered cubic structure. The presence of these diffraction peaks, on the one hand, illustrates the presence of nano Au in the prepared oxide supported Au catalyst.
As shown in FIG. 3, the diffraction peaks of examples 2-4 remain the same as in example 1. As shown in FIG. 4, the diffraction peaks of examples 5-6 remain the same as in example 1. This demonstrates that the catalysts to be protected according to the invention are structurally consistent and are all typically rutile TiO 2 Meanwhile, the catalyst contains nano Au.
As shown in fig. 5, the absorption wavelength of example 1 is significantly extended to the visible light region by the diffuse reflection spectrum test, whereas comparative example 1, comparative example 2 is not significantly extended to the visible light region.
As shown in FIG. 6, the electron spin resonance test shows that the electron spin resonance peak of example 1 has the highest intensity in the absence of light and illumination, indicating that the calcination in a hydrogen atmosphere causes TiO to react 2 Form Ti in 3+ Defects such as oxygen vacancies (FIG. 6 a). Due to the introduction of Ti 3+ Or oxygen vacancy, to cause TiO 2 Introducing a local state into the conduction band bottom of the reactor, thereby leading to TiO 2 The light absorption range of the light-emitting diode is expanded, and the light-emitting diode has the visible light and even infrared light absorption performance. Ti (Ti) 3+ Or oxygen vacancy and other defects can not only improve TiO 2 The hydrophilicity of the polymer is improved, the conductivity is improved, the photo-generated electrons and holes are generated by excitation under visible light, the transmission rate of the electrons and the holes is accelerated, and the recombination of the electrons and the holes is restrained, so that the separation efficiency of the electrons and the holes is changed, the separated holes further participate in ethanol oxidation reaction, and finally the photoelectric conversion efficiency is improved. The intensity of the electron spin formants of example 1 under light was also higher than under no light conditions (fig. 6 b), further confirming that example 1 was photo-responsive to visible light.
As shown in FIG. 7, the cyclic voltammogram test in the ethanol electrooxidation reaction is usually based on the oxidation peak current or current density in the normal sweep section to evaluate the catalytic activity of the catalyst. As shown, example 1 showed a significant oxidation peak around a scan voltage of 0.15V under various illumination conditions, indicating that the electrocatalytic oxidation performance was exhibited for ethanol oxidation, and the highest oxidation peak current density (fig. 7a,7b,7 c) was exhibited compared to comparative example 1, indicating that example 1 had the optimal electrocatalytic oxidation performance. From the summary bar graph of example 1 under different illumination (fig. 7 d), it can be seen that the peak current density of example 1 is significantly increased under the illumination, which means that the catalytic performance is significantly enhanced, especially under the sun illumination (fig. 7 d), the current density is increased by 18.3%, and also increased by 5.4% under the visible light. Due to the defects, example 1 can be excited to generate photo-generated electrons and holes under visible light, and the catalytic performance of ethanol oxidation under illumination is improved the most compared with comparative example 1.
Examples 1-4 pass cyclic voltammogram testing in an ethanol electrooxidation reaction, as shown in figure 8. Examples 2-4 were identical to example 1 and exhibited distinct oxidation peaks at about 0.15V at different light conditions, indicating that electrocatalytic oxidation performance was exhibited for ethanol oxidation (fig. 8a,8b,8 c). Although the catalytic performance of examples 2-4 was not as strong as example 1, the lowest current density peak of example 3 also exceeded 7mA cm -2 While the peak current density of comparative example 1 was only 5mA cm -2 Left and right. As shown in fig. 8d, the summarized columns under different illumination can be seen more intuitively, and the peak current densities of examples 2-4 are improved under both visible illumination and simulated sunlight, which indicates that both visible illumination and solar illumination can promote the improvement of the catalytic performance of examples 2-4.
Examples 1,5-6 pass cyclic voltammogram testing in ethanol electrooxidation reactions as shown in figure 9. Examples 5-6 were identical to example 1, and all showed significant oxidation peaks at around 0.15V at different light conditions, indicating electrocatalytic oxidation performance for ethanol oxidation (fig. 8a,8b,8 c). Although the catalytic performance of examples 5-6 was not as strong as example 1, the lowest current density peak of example 5 also exceeded 6mA cm -2 While the peak current density of comparative example 1 was only 5mA cm -2 Left and right. As shown in FIG. 8d, summaries under different illuminationThe columns can be seen more intuitively, and the peak current densities of examples 5-6 are not much different, indicating that the catalytic performance is much better under different light conditions. The peak current density of example 5 was not much different in the absence of light under visible light, indicating that the catalytic performance was comparable under visible light. The peak current density of example 6 was increased under both visible and simulated sunlight, indicating that both visible and solar illumination promoted the increase in catalytic performance of example 6.
For a more visual understanding of the peak cyclic voltammogram test current density for each of the examples and comparative examples, it can be seen from table 1:
table 1 cyclic voltammogram test current density peak data table for each of examples and comparative examples
As shown in fig. 10, the response of example 1 to light is very sensitive in passing a timed current curve (fig. 10 a) at 30 second intervals under illumination. Comparative example 1 is insensitive to the response to light. It can be seen from the graph that the current density of example 1 is at the highest level throughout the scan, which illustrates that the electrode produced in example 1 has the best long term stability to ethanol oxidation. As shown in fig. 10b, the radius of the impedance arc (diameter of impedance arc, DIA) on the electrode prepared in example 1 is greater than that of comparative example 1. In general, DIA can account for the magnitude of the electron transfer resistance of an electrode to some extent. The smaller the radius of the impedance arc, the smaller the electron transfer resistance on the electrode is, which is beneficial to the transfer of electrons on the electrode in the electrochemical reaction process; conversely, the larger the radius of the impedance arc, the larger the electron transfer resistance on the electrode is, which is unfavorable for the transfer of electrons on the electrode in the electrochemical reaction process. By means of fig. 10b, the minimum radius of the impedance arc of example 1 illustrates the fastest electron transport speed in example 1.
The photoelectric catalytic material provided by the invention uses TiO 2 Calcining the nano-particles for 5-15 hours in 500-1100 ℃ hydrogen atmosphere, thereby leading H-TiO to be 2 Is rich in Ti 3+ Defective sites such as oxygen vacancies and the like,thereby making H-TiO 2 Narrowing the band gap of H-TiO 2 The light absorption range of the catalyst is expanded from an ultraviolet region to a visible region, the performance of the original catalyst is changed, and finally the photoelectrocatalysis efficiency is improved.
