Description

Preparation and application of RuO 2 anode acid oxygen evolution catalyst with novel porous structure
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of functional materials and energy sources, and particularly relates to preparation and application of a RuO 2 anode acid oxygen evolution catalyst with a novel porous structure.
Background
The exhaustion of traditional energy sources and their impact on the environment has prompted the search for alternative energy solutions. Among these, green hydrogen energy is a promising candidate due to its high energy density and zero emissions. Electrochemical water splitting driven by renewable energy is an ideal method for large-scale production of green hydrogen. However, the Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) of the anode involves inherently slow kinetics of multiple proton-coupled electron transfer relative to the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) of the cathode, impeding the efficiency of the reaction, requiring higher energy to drive the reaction. In addition, compared with the electrolytic water of the alkaline medium, the acidic medium can reach larger current density, lower resistance loss, higher hydrogen pressure and minimum gas crossover, thus having very high practical application prospect. While harsh operating conditions and slow kinetics present serious challenges to the stability and activity of the catalyst. Among them, noble metal Ir-based catalysts have exhibited excellent OER stability and good activity, but low reserves and high costs have restricted their large-scale commercial application. Therefore, the use of a high-activity low-valence catalyst is of great importance for promoting the practical application of water decomposition under acidic conditions.
In recent years, ruO 2 -based catalysts have been widely studied for their relatively low price, easy-to-regulate electronic structure, and excellent activity. However, ru tends to generate high-valence species under anodic oxidation conditions, causing dissolution in an acidic medium and gradual deactivation thereof, which presents serious challenges for the stability of RuO 2 catalyst. At present, a great deal of research is focused on regulating and controlling the charge structure of RuO 2 so as to regulate and control the catalytic activity of the RuO 2, wherein the doping of metal elements in RuO 2 not only can promote the catalytic activity of the RuO, but also can relieve the deactivation problem, but as the doping elements are continuously dissolved, the Ru-based catalyst is slowly deactivated. Therefore, how to develop a Ru-based catalyst with high activity and high stability still faces serious challenges. Among them, the porous catalyst has abundant active centers and is widely used in various fields. The RuO 2 catalyst with a porous structure is prepared, and meanwhile, the stability is taken into consideration, so that the RuO 2 catalyst has important significance for improving the water decomposition in the acidic environment.
To solve this problem well, pyridine is introduced as a capping agent to prepare a porous Ru-based catalyst, which can maximize the utilization of active centers in the catalyst to reduce the voltage required at constant current density, alleviating its dissolution rate. In addition, the catalyst can form stable Ru-S bond locally during the heat treatment process, so that the stability under the acid condition is improved. Therefore, the aim of improving the activity and stability of the RuO 2 catalyst is expected to be fulfilled.
