Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of a graphite-carbon black mixed air diffusion cathode. The air diffusion cathode is of a composite layer structure composed of a diffusion layer, a stainless steel mesh and a catalyst layer which are laminated in sequence. The stainless steel mesh is a 60-mesh stainless steel mesh with the thickness being 0.1 mm. Catalyst layer materials are embedded in the stainless steel mesh. The preparation method of the graphite-carbon black mixed air diffusion cathode includes the steps that the 0.5 mm sheet-like catalyst layer formed by mixing graphite and conductive carbon black is prepared, the 0.5 mm sheet-like diffusion layer formed by pressing and sintering the conductive carbon black is prepared, the catalyst layer is embedded into the stainless steel mesh through rolling, the diffusion layer is attached to the other surface of the stainless steel mesh and then tightly combined with the stainless steel mesh after being rolled, and therefore the air diffusion cathode of the composite layer structure is prepared. The prepared air diffusion cathode is used for electro-catalysis synthesis of hydrogen peroxide, high catalytic efficiency is achieved, and average current efficiency is 80% or above.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electrocatalytic synthesis, in particular to a catalyst for catalytically synthesizing hydrogen peroxide with graphite and carbon black as active components, a preparation method thereof, and an application in pure electrochemical and bioelectrochemical systems. Background technique [0002] Hydrogen peroxide is a strong chemical oxidant, which is widely used in printing and dyeing, chemical synthesis, medical disinfection and other fields. Especially in wastewater treatment, hydrogen peroxide can be used for deodorization, decolorization and disinfection. [0003] At present, the main synthesis method of hydrogen peroxide is anthraquinone oxidation, which is expensive, polluting and environmentally toxic. In addition, in electrochemical cells and chemical fuel cells, carbon-based electrode materials (such as graphite, activated carbon, carbon nanotubes, etc.) can be used as cathodes, where hydrogen pero...
