Abstract

The invention provides a double metal hydroxide-composited porous bismuth vanadate photo-electrode and a preparation method thereof, wherein a composite of Co-Al double metal hydroxide and bismuth vanadate is grown on the surface of an electric-conductive glass substrate. The pore size of the bismuth vanadate is 50-120 nm and the particle size of the bismuth vanadate is 200-300 nm. The Co-Al double metal hydroxide is grown on the bismuth vanadate particles with the thickness being 10-100 nm. The preparation method includes following steps: 1) preparing a porous bismuth vanadate electrode through an electro-deposition precursor method; and 2) growing the Co-Al double metal hydroxide on the porous bismuth vanadate electrode. The method is simple in operation and is mild in reaction conditions. With zinc ion as an electro-deposition additive for controlling the size and appearance of the bismuth vanadate electrode, the method is more green and environment-friendly compared with a method in the prior art with an organic template agent or organic additives, so that the method is suitable for large-scale production. The photo-electrode can be directly used in photo-electro-chemical water oxidizing catalytic reaction. Because of excellent catalytic performance and visible light absorption capability of the Co-Al double metal hydroxide, the photo-electrode is significantly improved in water oxidizing performance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of preparation of photoelectrode materials, in particular to a double metal hydroxide composite porous bismuth vanadate photoelectrode and a preparation method thereof, and is used for photoelectric catalytic water splitting driven by sunlight. Background technique [0002] The excessive development and use of traditional energy sources such as coal, oil and natural gas in modern society has caused a huge energy crisis and environmental pollution problems. In order to achieve sustainable development, the development and utilization of renewable energy industry has become an important strategic goal of all countries in the world. Among them, solar energy, as a clean renewable energy source, has tens of thousands of times the reserves of other renewable energy sources; at the same time, solar energy hardly releases CO during use. 2 Greenhouse gases such as solar energy can help alleviate environmental problems such as ...
