The invention belongs to the technical field of water
electrolysis hydrogen production, and particularly relates to a jack fruit shell grain-shaped
alkaline water electrolysis hydrogen production
electrode and a preparation method and application thereof. The alkaline electrolytic water
hydrogen production
electrode comprises a
nickel support body and micron-sized granular
nickel hydroxide uniformly distributed on the surface of the
nickel support body, wherein a
platinum catalyst is grown on the surface of the micron-sized granular nickel
hydroxide in situ; the preparation method of the alkaline electrolytic water
hydrogen production electrode comprises the following steps: immersing a nickel support body into a first
electrolyte for first electrochemical deposition to obtain a nickel-supported nickel
hydroxide electrode, and immersing the nickel-supported nickel hydroxide electrode into a second
electrolyte for second electrochemical deposition to obtain a nickel-supported
platinum-loaded nickel hydroxide electrode; according to the preparation method, by selecting a first
electrolyte formula, a second electrolyte formula and electrodeposition parameters, the prepared
hydrogen production electrode can improve the overall
conductivity of a catalyst layer, the limiting space of the
hydrogen production electrode promotes ordered migration of hydrogen species on different active sites of
platinum / nickel hydroxide, and the hydrogen production electrode is lower in hydrogen production
energy consumption and adapts to stable operation of a working condition environment.
