Abstract

The invention discloses a copper phosphide and titanium dioxide nanocrystalline compound-type photocatalytic-water-splitting hydrogen production catalyst and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of nano-catalysts. The preparation method includes the steps that copper nitrate is prepared into copper hydroxide, copper hydroxide and sodium hypophosphite are calcined at certain temperature and under nitrogen protection, and then a product is rinsed, centrifuged and dried to obtain product copper phosphide; then, copper phosphide and anatase titanium dioxide nanocrystals are mixed and ground evenly to obtain the catalyst through preparation. The reaction rate of photocatalytic-water-splitting hydrogen production can be increased to 7.94 mmol h<-1>g<-1> from 0.74 mmol h<-1>g<-1> of pure titanium dioxide, and is increased by over 10 times. In this way, the catalyst is used as a new technological means for solving energy crisis, having potential industry applicability and producing environmentally-friendly novel energy.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nano-catalysts, and in particular relates to a copper phosphide-titanium dioxide nano-crystal composite photocatalytic hydrogen production catalyst for decomposing water and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Titanium dioxide is a material with excellent photocatalytic performance. It is not only non-toxic but also relatively cheap. The source of raw materials is very rich. It has a high abundance in the earth and its whiteness is very high. It is a semiconductor material with excellent performance. It is the most widely used material in the field of hydrogen production by photolysis of water. It is an ideal material to solve the energy crisis and generate clean energy. However, the actual situation is that titanium dioxide is used as a photocatalyst for water splitting. Its photocatalytic water splitting efficiency is extremely low, and it is difficult to meet the requirements of...
