Problems solved by technology

However, the preparation of the above-mentioned catalysts has the following problems: (1) organic solvents need to be used, and the process is cumbersome, time-consuming, and costly, and it is difficult to realize industrial production; When decomposing performance, it needs to be fixed on the conductive substrate with the help of polymer binders such as Nafion. Due to the additional addition of non-conductive substance Nafion, its catalytic anode oxygen evolution activity is reduced.
However, this method has the following problems: (1) The graphite disk substrate electrode is a two-dimensional flat electrode, and usually only the outermost layer is in contact with the electrolyte, which limits the number of active sites; (2) The situation of high current density or a large number of bubbles In this case, bubbles are easy to accumulate on the flat plate electrode, resulting in significant bubble overpotential, thereby increasing energy consumption; (3) The preparation process of the thin film catalyst needs to be calcined under a high-temperature inert atmosphere, which takes a long time, increases energy consumption, and is not easy to realize industrialization

Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method for a selenide thin film modifying a foamed nickel electrode and an application thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps that the foamed nickel electrode is subjected to surface treatment through hydrochloric acid and ethanol, a nickel oxide layer on the surface of the foamed nickel electrode is removed, and the clean and fresh metal surface is obtained; and after pretreating, the foamed nickel electrode is immersed into a mixed solution of a transition metal chloride, a sulfur group oxide and a supporting electrolyte, and the selenide thin film is deposited on the surface of the foamed nickel electrode through a electrochemical method. The selenide thin film obtained through the electrochemical deposition method is stable, catalytic precipitation of hydrolyzed oxygen can be realized; the foamed nickel electrode is of a multi-layer structure, the special three-dimensional porous structure, compared with another one-dimensional or two-dimensional substrate electrodes, has a richer surface area, the price is low, so that the industrial large-scale application is facilitated; and a thin film catalyst is promising in being used in the research field of water-electrolytic hydrogen making.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of environmental engineering, and in particular relates to a preparation method of a selenide film, in particular to a preparation method and application of a selenide film modified foamed nickel electrode for catalyzing water decomposition and oxygen precipitation. Background technique [0002] With the development of the global economy, people's consumption of natural resources such as coal, oil and natural gas is increasing day by day. As a clean, safe and efficient sustainable new energy, hydrogen fuel has attracted more and more attention. The largest source of hydrogen fuel is water, from which the hydrogen energy extracted is 9,000 times that of the earth's fossil fuel heat. Since hydrogen production by electrolysis of water can store and convert renewable energy such as solar energy, wind energy and tidal energy with hydrogen as the medium; therefore, hydrogen production by electrolysis of water has gradually ...
