The invention discloses a preparation method and application of a bimetallic
phosphate oxygen evolution
electrode. The preparation method of the bimetallic
phosphate oxygen evolution
electrode comprises the following steps: cleaning a
nickel substrate in an alkaline solution to remove oil, and cleaning the
nickel substrate with pure water; soaking the cleaned
nickel substrate in an acid solution, cleaning the
nickel substrate with pure water, and placing the
nickel substrate in the pure water for later use; the
nickel substrate placed in the pure water serves as a
cathode, two pure nickel materials are placed on the two sides of the nickel substrate to serve as two anodes, and electro-deposition is conducted on the nickel substrate in a bimetallic
phosphate solution; and washing an
electrode obtained after electrodeposition of the nickel substrate, and
drying to obtain the bimetallic phosphate electrode. According to the preparation method, the adsorption free energy of a catalytic layer on the surface of the bimetallic phosphate
oxygen evolution electrode on a
reaction intermediate is optimized through the synergistic
electronic effect of two metals, so that the
intrinsic activity of
oxygen evolution reaction is improved, meanwhile, a relatively stable catalytic layer structure is formed, and the stability of the bimetallic phosphate
oxygen evolution electrode in the
oxygen evolution process is improved.
