Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method for a WO3-LDH (Layered double hydroxide) composite film for photoelectrocatalytic water decomposition. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: dissolving ammonium tungstate and concentrated hydrochloric acid into water to obtain a solution, stirring the solution and transferring the solution into a lining of a high-pressure reaction kettle, and inserting pre-treated conductive glass FTO; then, carrying out solvothermal reaction, naturally cooling the room temperature, washing and drying the conductive glass, and carrying out thermal treatment for at least one hour at a temperature being 450-500 DEG C under air atmosphere, thereby obtaining a WO3 film; and the WO3 film as a working electrode, taking an aqueous solution of nickel nitrate and iron nitrate as electrolyte, depositing NiFe-LDH on the surface of the WO3 film under constant current, finally obtaining the WO3-LDH composite film. The product prepared by the preparation method has high photoelectric conversion efficient, low photooxidation water take-off potential, and has a wide application prospect in the fields such as photocatalytic degradation, photoelectrocatalytic water decomposition, artificial photosynthesis and photo-assisted energy storage batteries.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of inorganic non-metallic materials, in particular to a kind of WO for photocatalytic water splitting 3 -Preparation method of LDH (Layered double hydroxide) composite film. Background technique [0002] In the 1970s, the ever-increasing environmental pollution and energy shortages have made people aware of these two potential global crises. For the sustainable development of human society, it is urgent to develop environmentally friendly non-pollution technology and alternative clean energy. Among many green environmental protection and renewable energy projects, semiconductor photocatalysis technology using natural sunlight energy has become one of the most promising technologies. In 1972, Japanese scholars Fujishima and Honda first reported the TiO 2 The study of photoelectric water splitting on the electrode surface [A. Fujishima and K. Honda. Photolysis-decomposition of water at the surface of an irradiated se...
