Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of N-doped porous carbon coated nano-particles (Co@Ir / NC-x, and x is the quality ratio of Ir) of a Co-Ir core-shell structure and application of the N-doped porous carbon coated nano-particles of the Co-Ir core-shell structure to catalytic water splitting. The preparation method has the advantages that (1) the preparation process is simple and direct, and energy consumption is low, specifically, Co / NC obtained after a zeolite imidazole framework material (ZIF-67 for short) is calcined is directly subjected to Galvanic replacement with Ir<3+> at theroom temperature, high temperature and high pressure are not needed, and accordingly the energy consumption is low; (2) the catalytic performance is good, and the stability is high, specifically, a Co@Ir / NC-10% sample is in a 1M KOH solution, in an oxygen producing test, the current density is 10 mA cm<-2>, the overpotential is 280 mV, and the performance is higher than IrO2; in a hydrogen producing test, the current density is 10 mA cm<-2>, the overpotential is -121 mV; besides, after a stability test of 12 h, the oxygen producing activity of IrO2 is attenuated by 55.8% while the oxygen producing activity of Co@Ir / NC-10% is attenuated only by 20.6%, and the hydrogen producing stability of Co@Ir / NC-10% is far higher than that of commercial Pt / C under the same conditions; and (3) the catalyst cost is low and the Co source is wide, specifically, the nano-particles are of the core-shell structure with Co as a core and Ir as a shell, the amount of Ir is reduced on the basis of more exposedcatalytic activity sites, a core metal precursor Co is wide in source and low in cost, the catalyst cost is greatly reduced, and great commercial application prospects are achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The cobalt-iridium core-shell nanomaterial prepared by the invention is used for electrochemical oxygen evolution and hydrogen evolution reactions to split water, and belongs to the field of new energy materials. It specifically relates to the preparation of nano-catalysts with core-shell structure and its application in catalytic water splitting. Background technique [0002] With the continuous consumption of fossil fuels and the seriousness of environmental pollution, it is essential to develop renewable and sustainable clean energy. Hydrogen is considered to be the most ideal substitute for fossil fuels because of its high energy storage density and low pollution characteristics. Electrochemical catalytic water splitting is the most promising technology for the large-scale production of hydrogen. The water splitting process involves two reactions, hydrogen evolution and oxygen evolution, but both require highly active electrocatalysts to reduce t...
