The invention discloses a preparation method and application of a three-dimensional flower-shaped NixPy-NixSy
composite structure, and belongs to the field of NixPy-NixSy composite materials.According to the method,
nickel nitrate hexahydrate,
ammonium fluoride and
urea are selected for preparing a reaction solution, a high-temperature sealed reaction is conducted for sample manufacturing, the sample is made to react with
phosphorus powder to manufacture pure-phase NixPy, and the pure-phase NixPy is prepared; according to the preparation method, NixPy-NixSy is used as a
raw material and further reacts with
sulfur powder to generate the
composite material NixPy-NixSy, so that the NixPy-NixSy
composite material with regular morphology and excellent
dispersity is formed, the NixPy-NixSy
composite material has relatively large specific surface area and forms more active contact positions, and meanwhile, the
reaction temperature of the synthesis method is far lower than the high temperature required by other methods, so that the particle size is convenient to control, and the preparation method is suitable for industrial production. Therefore, the turnover frequency and the relative reactivity of the
crystal face are convenient to estimate, the emission of toxic and harmful gas PH3 is reduced, the phosphating efficiency is remarkably improved, and the
transition metal phosphorus sulfide is applied to the field of
humidity sensitivity for the first time to construct a novel
humidity sensor.
