The application discloses a preparation method of functionalized
iron oxide nanoparticles. Firstly, the interlayer distance of
graphite is increased under the action of a
bicarbonate ammonia dispersant through high-energy ball milling treatment, and
bismuth trisulfide which can inhibit
hydrogen evolution is uniformly loaded on the
graphite powder through the ball milling effect; then, the formed
iron oxide and
bismuth trisulfide are fully mixed through an in-situ deposition method; after further high-energy ball milling treatment to form uniform particles, the particles are subjected to
hydrothermal treatment together with carbon nanotubes, so that the carbon nanotubes and the
graphite and
iron oxide particles form an interwoven
network structure, a large amount of space is provided in the
electrode, and the interlayer structure of the graphite also fully weakens the
passivation phenomenon of the iron
electrode. When the functionalized
iron oxide nanoparticles are applied to an iron-air battery, the main problems existing in the iron-air battery can be solved in a targeted manner, and the application has important practical significance.
