Description

Preparation method of supported copper nitride catalyst
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of carbon dioxide electro-reduction catalysts, in particular to a preparation method of a supported copper nitride catalyst.
Background
In CO 2 RR, cu is the only CO 2 RR catalyst capable of producing significant amounts of hydrocarbons and oxygenates (such as CH 4、C2H4 and C 2H5 OH) due to its suitable binding energy to intermediates CO and H. However, due to the diversity of products and complex reaction pathways in CO 2 RR, it is difficult to obtain high selectivity of a single product when Cu is used as a single active site.
In the prior art, nitrogen-containing molecules can also be used as an auxiliary agent to improve the selectivity and stability of the Cu single-metal catalyst. Modification of Cu catalysts by nitrogen-containing organic polymers also results in higher C 2+ selectivity and reaction rates. For example, N-aryl pyridine derivative membranes increase C 2H4 selectivity by enhancing the stability of the linear adsorption of CO intermediates. The NxC layer deposited on the surface of the Cu particles can also improve the adsorption quantity of CO 2 through specific N-CO 2 interaction, thereby improving the selectivity and the catalytic stability of C 2. Nano Cu 3 N showed good C 2H4 selectivity in CO 2 RR by maintaining the positive valence state of Cu.
Researchers have developed a method for preparing nitrogen-carbon supported Cu 3 N composite catalyst by pyrolysis of cyanamide copper (CuNCN), wherein the selectivity of the obtained catalyst product Cu 3N/CxNy to C 2H4 products can reach 47.6%. The method is simple and easy to realize, but the conductivity and the stability of the final product Cu 3N/CxNy are poor, so that the product still has a large lifting space.

In summary, the method of the invention can simultaneously improve the conductivity and the structural stability of the catalyst, not only can improve the catalytic activity of the catalyst, but also can improve the selectivity of the catalyst to C 2H4 products in the carbon dioxide electroreduction process.

245.7mg of CuCl is added into a conical flask containing 50mL of deionized water, 5mL of concentrated ammonia water is added into the conical flask, and stirring is carried out for 20min to form a uniform blue complexing solution. 480mg of a 50% by mass aqueous solution of cyanamide was then added to a beaker containing 50mL of deionized water and stirred to form a homogeneous solution. 50mL of diluted aqueous cyanamide solution was added to the Cu complex solution, vigorously stirred for 5min, forming a uniform black suspension, filtered, and washed with deionized water. The black solid obtained was dried in a vacuum oven at 80 ℃ for 1 h to obtain CuNCN.
500Mg CuNCN solids, 500mg carbon fibers and 100mg deionized water were added to a ball milling tank. And then placing the ball milling tank in a ball mill to run for 12 hours at 2000rpm, thus obtaining the Cu 3 N catalyst loaded by the carbon fiber, which is marked as Cu 3 N-CF-1.
The method for testing the electrocatalytic reduction performance of carbon dioxide comprises the following steps: taking 3mg of Cu 3 N-CF-1 sample, dispersing in 1mL of isopropanol solution, performing ultrasonic dispersion for 30min, adding 10 mu L of 5% Nafion solution as a binder, continuing ultrasonic treatment for 20min, taking 50 mu LCu 3 N-CF-1 dispersion, dripping the dispersion on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode with the diameter of 6mm, airing, placing the glassy carbon electrode in an H-type electrolytic cell, using a platinum wire as a counter electrode, taking Ag/AgCl as a reference electrode, separating a cathode cavity and an anode cavity by Nafion 117 membranes, adding 40mL of KHCO 3 solution into the cathode cavity and the anode cavity respectively, introducing 20mL/min CO 2 gas into the cathode, and testing the carbon dioxide electrocatalytic reduction performance of Cu 3 N-CF-1 under different potentials. The gaseous products were quantitatively analyzed using on-line gas chromatography.
Example 2
The ball milling conditions in example 1 were changed to 2000rpm and run for 10 hours, the remaining conditions were kept in accordance with example 1, and the resulting catalyst was designated as Cu 3 N-CF-2. The carbon dioxide electrocatalytic reduction performance test method was consistent with example 1.
Example 3:
The conditions of the example 1 were completely identical to those of the example 1 except that 500mg of the conductive carbon fiber was replaced with 125mg of the conductive carbon fiber, and the obtained graphene-supported Cu 3 N catalyst was designated as Cu 3 N-CF-3. The carbon dioxide electrocatalytic reduction performance test method was consistent with example 1.
Example 4:
500mg of the conductive carbon fiber in example 1 was replaced with 125mg of the conductive carbon fiber, the ball milling conditions were changed to 2000rpm and operated for 20 hours, and the remaining conditions were kept the same as in example 1, and the obtained catalyst was designated as Cu 3 N-CF-4. The carbon dioxide electrocatalytic reduction performance test method was consistent with example 1.
Comparative example 1:
the preparation of copper cyanamide (CuNCN) in comparative example 1 was identical to that of example 1. And (3) taking 100mg of cyanamide copper solid, putting the cyanamide copper solid into a glass tube or a quartz tube with one sealed end, and sealing the cyanamide copper solid into the glass tube or the quartz tube. Then, the glass tube or the quartz tube filled with the cyanamide copper is put into a muffle furnace, and is respectively heated to 300 ℃ at a heating rate of 1 ℃/min, kept for 1h, and naturally cooled. The resulting catalyst was labeled Cu 3 N-NC. The carbon dioxide electrocatalytic reduction performance test method was consistent with example 1.
Analysis of results
Table 1 test results of examples and comparative examples
The catalyst was successfully obtained by the method of the present invention, and the catalyst of the present invention was subjected to carbon dioxide reduction performance test, and the test results are shown in table 1. As can be seen from table 1, the catalyst performance of each of inventive examples 1 to 4 was significantly better than that of comparative example 1. The selectivity of the supported Cu 3 N nanoparticle catalyst prepared by the ball milling method to C 2H4 is more than 10% higher than that of comparative example 1, the current density is increased by more than 10mA/cm 2, and the stability is improved by more than 5 hours.
By the ball milling method, cuNCN is decomposed successfully, and meanwhile, the ball milling is beneficial to generating defects of the conductive carbon material, so that the Cu 3 N nano particles obtained by CuNCN decomposition are supported. On the basis, the ball milling also promotes the stable connection of the conductive carbon material and the catalyst, thereby improving the conductivity of the catalyst, and the Cu 3 N nano-particles are uniformly dispersed on the carbon nanofiber as can be verified from the figure 1.
In order to realize the structural stability of the catalyst, the ball milling parameters and the mass ratio of CuNCN to conductive carbon are further regulated and controlled as shown in examples 1-4 in table 1. When CuNCN and conductive carbon quality, ball milling time and ball milling rotating speed are changed, the performance of the catalyst is affected. Comparison of example 1 with example 3 shows that as the mass ratio of CuNCN to conductive carbon increases, the performance and stability of the catalyst decreases, probably because too much CuNCN decomposes to produce Cu 3 N nanoparticles, resulting in too large a loading and uneven dispersion, thereby affecting the catalyst performance. However, as a result of comparison between example 3 and example 4, it was found that the dispersion of Cu 3 N nanoparticles could be achieved by increasing the ball milling speed, thereby improving the influence due to the excessively large mass ratio of the added amount; from a comparison of example 2 and example 4, it was found that the catalyst performance could be further improved by adjusting the ball milling time. It is possible that it is advantageous to sufficiently disperse and nanoparticle by extending the ball milling time and the ball milling rotation speed, thereby facilitating the nanoparticle to form a stable connection at the defect.
In summary, the method of the invention successfully obtains a catalyst with stable structure and good conductivity.
Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical solution of the present invention, and not for limiting the same; although the invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that: the technical scheme described in the foregoing embodiments can be modified or some or all of the technical features thereof can be replaced by equivalents; such modifications and substitutions do not depart from the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
