Abstract

A surface treatment method for improving electro-catalysis hydrogen production performance comprises the steps of 1, preparing a precursor with the hydrothermal growth method; 2, preparing phosphorous nanosheets or nanowires by means of the precursor prepared in the step 1; 3, conducting CV scan round by means of a three-electrode system with the nanosheets or nanowires obtained in the step 2 as a working electrode, a saturated Ag / AgCl electrode as a reference electrode and a platinum sheet as a counter electrode, wherein the surface roughness and surface active sites of the phosphorous nanosheets or nanowires are both increased after scanning. The method has the advantages that by taking Ni2P nanosheets, CoP nanowires, NiCoP nanowires and other transition metal phosphides as the working electrode, the preparing method is simple and environmentally friendly, morphology is easy to control, preparation materials are abundant, and cost is low; after CV scan round is conducted with the transition metal phosphides as the working electrode, electro-catalysis hydrogen production performance is improved greatly, and electro-catalysis performance is excellent; besides, an electro-catalyst material capable of replacing a noble metal catalyst is obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electrolytic water catalytic hydrogen production materials, in particular to a surface treatment method for improving electrocatalytic hydrogen production performance. Background technique [0002] Energy shortage and environmental pollution are two serious problems faced by human beings in the process of sustainable development. Hydrogen is a sustainable, environmentally friendly energy carrier that can meet global energy needs. Noble metals are currently the most active catalysts for the electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction, but unfortunately, due to their high cost and rarity, their use in large-scale hydrogen production is limited. Active materials are imminent. [0003] In recent years, researchers have done a lot of work on transition metal compounds, synthesized MoSx, WS 2 , MoC, CoS 2 , CoSe 2 , FeP, MoP, Ni 2 P, CoP and other low-priced, abundant electrocatalysts, in these electroca...
