Description

High-activity oxygen evolution electrode material with thermocatalytic effect and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of catalysts for hydrogen production by water electrolysis, and particularly relates to the technical field of catalysts for anodic oxygen evolution reaction.
Background
The electrolyzed water has the advantages of abundant resources, renewability, capability of effectively utilizing clean energy resources such as wind power, photoelectricity, water and electricity in valley period and the like to carry out electric hydrogen conversion, capability of being combined with a fuel cell and the like, and is an important way for realizing hydrogen economy. The electrolytic water comprises two half reactions of anodic oxygen evolution and cathodic hydrogen evolution, wherein the oxygen evolution reaction is a kinetic limiting step due to the fact that four electrons are involved, and is a main root cause of high energy consumption and low efficiency in the electrolytic hydrogen production process.
Noble metals Ru and Ir-based compounds are considered as catalysts with optimal oxygen evolution performance, but cannot realize large-scale industrial application due to high price and scarce resources. Therefore, the development of non-noble metal catalysts with low oxygen evolution overpotentials is an important research direction.
Of the non-noble metal oxygen evolution electrocatalysts, transition metal, e.g., nickel and cobalt based catalysts exhibit high oxygen evolution electrocatalytic activity, but most of them reach 10mA cm -2 The current density still needs high overpotential of 250-400 mV, and the application effect is not good.
On the other hand, the anode surface modification method is one of the important methods for preparing oxygen evolution electrodes, and the method utilizes metal surface oxides as electrode active coatings, and the electrochemical stability, thickness, form, magnetism, chemical bond structure, surface electronic structure, conductivity and the like of the oxide layers are main factors influencing the oxygen evolution performance. The current methods for preparing the anode active coating mainly comprise an electroplating method, a metal diffusion method, a thermal decomposition method and the like, and the active coating electrode prepared by the methods usually has the defects of short service life, complex preparation process and the like, and is difficult to meet industrial application.
In addition, in the actual process of producing hydrogen by electrolyzing water, there is a concern that the water electrolysis process is accompanied by a heat effect which cannot be ignored even under the condition of 100% faradaic efficiency, and at a high current density (500 to 1000mA cm) facing large-scale industrial application -2 ) The effect is more remarkable, the temperature of a water electrolysis system (comprising an electrode, a diaphragm, electrolyte and the like) can be increased to 50-90 ℃, the electric energy consumption of hydrogen production by water electrolysis is increased, and the tolerance to the used catalyst is also severe. Most current research on water electrolysis electrocatalysts does not take into account the thermal effects associated therewith or the efficient use of other low-value thermal energies.
