Problems solved by technology

Noble metals such as Pd and Pt are metal electrode materials with excellent electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity, but because these noble metals are expensive and difficult to be widely used in industrial production, research and development of new cathodes with low price, high activity, and low hydrogen evolution overpotential Non-precious metal material hydrogen evolution electrode is very important

Abstract

The invention relates to a hydrogen evolution electrode with copper and cobalt loaded on three-dimensional foamed nickel, which can be used for an electro-catalysis hydrogen evolution reaction in alkaline solution and is capable of simultaneously loading base metals and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the technical fields of material science and hydrogen production by electro-catalysis. The technical problem to be solved is to provide the composite hydrogen evolution electrode with copper and cobalt loaded on three-dimensional foamed nickel and a preparation method thereof. A method of plating a composite coating on an electro-mechanical surface is adopted, and copper and cobalt are electro-plated on the three-dimensional foamed nickel in sequence, so that the composite hydrogen evolution electrode is prepared. The prepared electrode has high catalytic activity, is non-toxic, and can keep stable structure and chemical activity under an alkaline condition. In addition, the preparation process of the composite hydrogen evolution electrode is simple, and is suitable for large-scale production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a three-dimensional foam nickel-supported copper and cobalt hydrogen evolution electrode which can be used for electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction in alkaline solution and simultaneously supports non-noble metal hydrogen evolution electrode and a preparation method thereof, which belongs to the field of material science and technology and the field of electrocatalytic hydrogen production. Background technique [0002] At present, humans mainly use non-renewable fossil energy such as petroleum and coal. Due to excessive exploitation by humans, these fossil energy sources have already faced the danger of depletion; and the use of fossil fuels has caused serious environmental pollution to humans, such as the greenhouse effect, acid rain and Haze, etc., seriously threaten human health and survival. Hydrogen is considered to be the most ideal energy carrier because of its abundant sources, clean and pollution-free, and high...
