Problems solved by technology

A prominent defect of this type of metal electrode is that the electrode reaction area is small and only concentrated on the surface in contact with the supporting electrolyte, resulting in a high overpotential of the ERC reaction and CO 2 The conversion rate is low; in addition, because the ERC reaction involves multiple electron transfer processes, the reaction process is complicated, and there are many intermediate products, especially when copper is used as the electrode, there are as many as 16 kinds of ERC reduction products, so the selectivity of the product is low One of the problems to be solved for electrode-like

Abstract

The invention relates to an electrode for CO2 electrochemical reduction and preparation and application of the electrode for CO2 electrochemical reduction. The preparation process of the electrode includes the steps of soaking a substrate material into an electroplating liquid containing main salt and additives after performing impurity removal on the substrate material, and performing electrochemical deposition under inert atmosphere protection and stirring conditions to obtain the electrode with micrometer Cu particles growing on the surface. The proportion of side atoms of the Cu particlesdeposited on the substrate surface of the prepared electrode is much higher than that of corner atoms, which is beneficial to improving the coverage of CO* on the surface of the electrode and providesa favorable environment for a subsequent CO* dimerization reaction and a hydrogenation reaction; and the electrode has a significant effect of inhibiting the side reaction of hydrogen evolution and meanwhile has high C2H4 selectivity.

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of carbon dioxide electrochemical reduction, in particular to an electrode with prism-shaped surface particles and its preparation technology. Background technique [0002] Electrochemical reduction of CO 2 (ERC) technology is the use of electricity to convert CO 2 Reduction to the target product to achieve CO 2 A technology for transformation and efficient use. with other COs 2 Compared with conversion technology, the outstanding advantages of ERC technology are simple operation, low cost, water can be used as protonated hydrogen source, and CO2 can be realized under normal temperature and pressure. 2 High-efficiency conversion, so there is no need for energy consumption caused by hydrogen production, heating, and pressurization required by chemical conversion technology, and the investment in equipment is small. [0003] At present, the main factors for the slow development of ERC technology include: ...
