Description

Method for rapidly preparing self-supporting catalytic layer based on zeolite imidazole organic framework membrane
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of inorganic nano materials, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a self-supporting catalytic layer.
Background
Hydrogen fuel cells and metal-air cells are emerging energy conversion devices with the advantages of high power density, environmental friendliness, and the like. Such devices all require an air electrode with good oxygen reduction activity as the cathode. At present, noble metal materials such as platinum (Pt) are commonly used catalysts for Oxygen Reduction Reaction (ORR), however, the expensive cost of noble metal catalysts greatly hinders large-scale industrial application. In order to reduce the manufacturing cost of the fuel cell and promote the commercial application of the fuel cell, the development of non-noble metal catalysts is an important point of attention of researchers.
Among the numerous catalytic materials, zeolite Imidazole Frameworks (ZIFs) have a rich nitrogen-metal structure and unique dodecahedral morphology, attracting researchers' attention. By carbonizing the ZIF precursor, highly dispersed catalyst particles with a good pore structure can be obtained. Based on this method, a large number of highly active catalysts were developed and showed good oxygen reduction activity in the RDE test. However, most catalysts exist in the form of powder, and thus, when used for forming a catalytic layer of an electrode, the addition of a binder is required to fix the catalyst powder on the surface of a gas diffusion layer or an ion exchange membrane. However, most binders do not have conductivity, so the addition of binders can reduce the conductivity of the catalyst; at the same time, too much binder can cover the active sites of the catalyst, reducing the activity of the catalyst. In addition, in the process from the catalyst powder to the catalytic layer, the prior art cannot accurately control the pore structure of the catalytic layer, which is unfavorable for preparing the catalytic layer with good pore structure.
Recently many researchers have begun to study self-supporting electrodes to achieve freedom from adhesive dependencies. Self-supporting electrodes have many advantages, such as high specific surface area, high active site density, fast electron transport paths, short ion diffusion lengths, good pore structure, etc., which can enhance the conductivity of the catalytic layer, reducing mass transfer losses in electrochemical reactions. However, the existing preparation method of the self-supporting catalytic layer still has the problems of long deposition time, low active site density, uncontrollable catalytic layer structure and the like.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to solve the technical problems of complex preparation flow of a self-supporting catalytic layer, difficult regulation and control of a catalytic layer structure and the like, and provides a rapid preparation method of the self-supporting catalytic layer based on a zeolite imidazole organic framework membrane aiming at uncontrollability in the traditional catalytic layer spraying process. The method uses a flaky porous conductive substrate as a carrier, and prepares the self-supporting catalytic layer with a stepped pore structure by a current-driven rapid in-situ deposition and high-temperature carbonization method. The porous catalytic layer has a self-supporting structure, so that the preparation process of the catalytic layer is greatly simplified, and the porous catalytic layer has the advantages of good conductivity, high mass transfer efficiency, high active site density and the like, and can be applied to various energy storage and conversion devices such as zinc-air batteries, fuel cells and the like. In addition, the simple preparation process makes the invention easy to amplify, and has practical application significance and economic benefit.
In order to solve the technical problems, the invention is realized by the following technical scheme:
the invention provides a self-supporting catalytic layer rapid preparation method based on a zeolite imidazole organic framework membrane, which comprises the following steps:
(1) Respectively dissolving 2-methylimidazole and transition metal salt in the same solvent, and uniformly dispersing by ultrasonic;
(2) Mixing the two solutions obtained in the step (1) into an electrolyte according to the equal volume in an electrolytic cell, wherein the molar ratio of 2-methylimidazole to transition metal salt in the electrolyte is 2:1, a step of; electrifying a flaky porous conductive substrate serving as a working electrode, a carbon rod electrode serving as a counter electrode and a reference electrode to perform electrodeposition, wherein a catalyst precursor is generated on the flaky porous conductive substrate;
(3) Washing the flaky porous conductive substrate deposited with the catalyst precursor by using an alcohol solvent, and then flattening and drying;
(4) Heating the dried substrate to 900-1000 ℃ in inert atmosphere, keeping the temperature for 1-3 hours, and naturally cooling to room temperature to obtain the self-supporting catalytic layer.
Further, the solvent in the step (1) is methanol or ethanol.
Further, the transition metal salt in the electrolyte in the step (2) is zinc acetate.
Further, the transition metal salt in the electrolyte in the step (2) is zinc acetate and cobalt nitrate, and the molar ratio of the zinc acetate to the cobalt nitrate is 17:3.
further, the transition metal salt in the electrolyte in the step (2) is zinc acetate, cobalt nitrate and ferrous sulfate, and the molar ratio of the zinc acetate, the cobalt nitrate and the ferrous sulfate is 50:9:1.
further, the sheet porous conductive substrate in the step (2) is carbon paper or carbon nanotube cloth.
Further, the energizing mode in the step (2) is a potentiostatic method or a galvanostatic method, the potentiostatic method has a potential of-4 to-6V, and the galvanostatic method has a current of-1 to-3 mA/cm 2
Further, the inert atmosphere in the step (4) is nitrogen or argon.
The beneficial effects of the invention are as follows:
the invention aims to develop a rapid preparation method of a self-supporting catalytic layer, which reduces the manufacturing cost of the catalytic layer and optimizes the pore structure of the catalytic layer. Compared with the traditional preparation methods of the catalytic layers such as a spray coating method, a transfer printing method, a brushing method and the like, the self-supporting catalytic layer is directly prepared on the conductive substrate through electrodeposition-pyrolysis two-step operation, so that the preparation flow of the traditional electrode is greatly simplified, and the time cost of the catalytic layer production is reduced. The invention also regulates and controls the pore structure of the catalytic layer, and prepares the self-supporting catalytic layer with a stepped pore structure. Research shows that the existence of the stepped hole structure greatly improves the diffusion efficiency of the gas in the catalytic layer, thereby improving the electrocatalytic effect of the catalytic layer. In zinc-air battery applications, such self-supporting, stepped pore catalytic layers exhibit performance approaching that of commercial Pt/C catalytic layers, yet are much less costly to produce than Pt-based noble metal catalytic layers. In conclusion, the invention can improve the current manufacturing process of the catalytic layer, reduce the manufacturing cost and has important practical significance and economic effect.

To verify the oxygen reduction effect of the above catalytic layer, a rotating disk electrode test, a half cell test and a zinc-air cell test were performed on the catalytic layer, and the specific procedure was as in example 1.
In the comparative example, foamed nickel with higher porosity, larger pore diameter and smaller specific surface area is selected as the electrodeposited substrate. Due to the characteristics of the foam nickel, the catalytic layer structure is loose, and the density of active sites of the catalytic layer is extremely low. In the zinc-air battery test process, the current density and the power density are far lower than those of the self-supporting catalytic layer prepared by taking carbon nano tube cloth as a substrate, as shown in fig. 5.
The invention uses carbon paper, single-layer carbon nanotube cloth and carbon nanotube cloth with microporous layer as substrates, and prepares the non-noble metal self-supporting catalytic layer with a step pore structure by combining a rapid electrodeposition method and a one-step pyrolysis method. The pore structure and the active site density of the catalytic layer are optimized by regulating and controlling parameters such as metal types, pyrolysis temperature and time, deposition current, deposition voltage and the like. Compared with the traditional preparation method of the catalytic layer, the self-supporting catalytic layer has the advantages of simple preparation flow, low production cost, good mass transfer performance, strong conductivity and the like. Excellent performance was exhibited during the zinc-air battery test.
