Co2P电催化剂快速制备及海水OER性能探究

Efficient preparation of Co2P electrocatalyst and characterization of OER in seawater

  • 摘要: 自然界中海水储量丰富,将其作为电解制氢原料具有广阔的应用前景。然而,电解过程中氯离子(Cl) 的存在会引发析氯反应(CER)副反应竞争和阳极材料腐蚀,严重制约了海水电解技术的发展。为解决这一困境,开发具有优异催化活性、耐氯腐蚀特性以及低成本的析氧反应(OER)电极材料已成为当前研究的重点。本研究采用电沉积法在泡沫镍基底上几分钟内快速合成了Co2P/NF电极。该电极在碱性海水环境中展现出卓越的OER性能(286 m@100 mA/cm2)和优异的长期稳定性(100 h仅衰弱2.7%)。这得益于CV激活产生的PO43−对海水Cl的排斥作用,从而延长电极使用寿命。

     

    Abstract: Seawater is abundant in nature, and its application as a raw material for hydrogen production by electrolysis has a broad prospect. However, the presence of chloride ions (Cl) in the electrolysis process triggers chlorination evolution reaction (CER) side-reaction competition and anode material corrosion, which seriously restricts the development of seawater electrolysis technology. To address this dilemma, the development of oxygen volution reaction (OER) electrode materials with excellent catalytic activity, chlorine corrosion resistance properties, and low cost has become the focus of current research. In this study, a Co2P/NF electrode was rapidly synthesized on a nickel foam substrate in a few minutes by electrodeposition. The electrode exhibits excellent OER performance (286 m @100 mA/cm2) and excellent long-term stability (Only 2.7% weakness in 100 h) in alkaline seawater environment. This is attributed to the repulsive effect of PO43− generated by CV activation on Cl in seawater, thereby extending the service life of the electrode.
