Description

Nitrogen-doped carbon composite material with high load of transition metal single atom, preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a nitrogen-doped carbon composite material with high load of transition metal single atoms, a preparation method and application thereof, belonging to the technical field of electrocatalysts.
Background
Oxygen Reduction Reaction (ORR) in metal-air batteries, fuel cells, and the likeThe field is an important half-reaction. Currently common ORR electrocatalysts include noble Pt-based catalysts, heteroatom-doped carbon, nitrogen-doped carbon, and carbon-coated Fe 3 C complexes, monatomic catalysts, and the like. Due to the scarcity, high cost, poor stability and other problems of noble metals, the development of cheap and efficient non-noble metal catalysts (such as Fe, co and the like or non-metal catalyst carbon) capable of replacing noble metal catalysts is an important research direction in the field of energy technology research, and plays an important role in solving some key technical problems and cost problems in the field of energy storage and conversion.
Monatomic catalysts have received much attention because of their high atom utilization, high selectivity, adjustable coordination environment, and excellent catalytic activity. Generally, the metal-nitrogen-carbon (M-N-C, M is Fe, co, ni, cu, zn or Mn) catalyst has definite M-N metal active centers at atomic level 4 The coordination configuration provides convenient conditions for the exertion of electrocatalysis performance and the regulation and control of coordination structure and the like. Of the plurality of M-N-C catalysts, having Fe-N 4 The configured Fe-N-C catalyst has more proper binding energy to oxygen-containing intermediates in an ORR process, so that the Fe-N-C catalyst shows very excellent ORR catalytic activity and stability and is considered as a material which has potential to replace noble metal platinum catalysts [ Angew. Chem.2017,129,13988-13992; adv.mater.2018,30,1803220; adv. Mater.2020,32,2004900]. Increasing the intrinsic activity of the catalyst and the number of active sites are two major ways to increase the activity of the catalyst [ Science,2017,355, eaad4998]. The design of the carrier material plays an important role in regulating and controlling the loading capacity and intrinsic activity of the catalyst. Heteroatom doped carbon materials, particularly nitrogen doped carbon, are commonly used support materials for single atom catalysts, and by selecting appropriate materials containing precursors of carbon and nitrogen elements, favorable conditions can be provided for the loading and dispersion of metal active centers. In the high-temperature pyrolysis treatment process, the precursor compound can be converted into nitrogen-doped carbon under the high-temperature condition, the relatively strong electronegativity of nitrogen element can enable metal atoms to be anchored on a nitrogen-doped carbon carrier, the graphitization degree of a carbon material formed in the pyrolysis process can be improved due to the existence of the metal element, and the catalysis is further improvedThe conductivity of the agent. Bamboo-like carbon nanotube/Fe prepared by adopting surfactant P123, melamine and ferric nitrate 3 In the C nanoparticle composite catalyst, metal in the precursor composite can agglomerate and form particles in the high-temperature pyrolysis process, and it is difficult to obtain a uniformly dispersed monatomic catalyst [ J.Am.chem.Soc.2015,137,1436-1439 [ ]]. When a metal organic framework structure-NH is adopted 2 -MIL (Fe) -as a precursor material, when phytic acid and melamine are used for regulating and preparing a metal monatomic catalyst, the obtained composite structure of the Fe-N-C catalyst and iron phosphide FeP [ J.colloid Interface Sci.,583 (2021) 371-375]. The above examples demonstrate that the selection of the precursors of the synthesis catalyst and the proportion of the amounts of the precursors have a very significant influence on the morphology of the final catalyst, the form in which the metallic elements are present. The loading of metal atoms in most of the catalysts is generally low, the loading of most of Ni monatomic catalysts is only 1wt%, and the Fe is mostly less than 2 wt%; nat. Nanotechnol.2022,17,174-181]. The low loading capacity is not beneficial to the application of the catalyst in the actual industrial production, so the development of the monatomic catalyst with high loading capacity and high stability is also a great key problem in the field of catalysis.
