Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of a carbon-coated cobalt oxygen evolution reaction electro-catalyst and belongs to the preparation field of electrochemical catalysts. The preparation method includes the steps that firstly, a carbon source and cobalt salts in proportion are placed into water for dissolving and mixing, and then evaporation to dryness is performed at the water bath condition at the temperature of 50 DEG C-80 DEG C to obtain powder evenly mixed; then the powder is heated to 400 DEG C-1000 DEG C under the shielding gas condition and then calcinated for 30 minutes-120 minutes to obtain a carbon-coated cobalt elementary substance; finally, an electrochemical pretreatment method is used for obtaining a nano-particle of carbon layer-cobaltic oxide-elementary substance cobalt, wherein the nano-particle is of an electric conduction core-shell structure. The method is simple in process, convenient to implement and low in requirement for preparation equipment and improves safety in the experiment process. The carbon layer-cobaltic oxide-elementary substance cobalt prepared through the method is even in diameter and good in electric conduction and has good electro-catalysis water oxidation performance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of an oxygen evolution reaction electrocatalyst coated with cobalt by carbon, and belongs to the field of preparation of electrochemical catalysts. Background technique [0002] The electrolysis of water to generate hydrogen and oxygen offers a possible way to store intermittent energy sources such as solar energy and wind energy. However, due to the slow kinetic process of the oxygen evolution reaction, the voltage required for water electrolysis is much higher than the thermodynamic potential for water splitting. The most active oxygen evolution reaction catalyst is RuO 2 and IrO 2 , but these precious metals are very scarce and cannot be used on a large scale. Therefore, it is of great importance to develop non-noble metal electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution reaction with high catalytic activity. [0003] In recent years, transition metal oxides, especially cobalt oxides, have attracted extensive a...
