Abstract

The invention provides a flexible nano-porous/amorphous composite material for hydrogen production by electrolyzing water and a preparation method thereof. A Ni-Zr-Ti (Pt, Au, Pd) amorphous alloy wire or a thin strip is used as a precursor, and Zr and Ti elements are selectively removed through surface dealloying, so that the composite material is prepared. The nano composite material has a double-continuous nano porous structure with a high specific surface area and an amorphous matrix layer, and meanwhile has good mechanical flexibility and can be bent at any angle of 180 degrees. The composite material is directly used for electrolyzing a hydrogen evolution electrode, and shows excellent hydrogen evolution electrocatalytic activity, and the performance is obviously superior to 10 wt%of commercial Pt/C catalysts. The flexible nano-porous/amorphous composite material not only can solve the problem that an existing block nano porous electrocatalytic material is generally brittle, but also can overcome the defect that because the specific surface area of a traditional amorphous block body and a strip is not high, the catalytic activity is insufficient, and has a great applicationprospect in the aspect of high-performance electrolytic water hydrogen production electrode devices.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of preparation and application of clean and sustainable energy, and in particular relates to a flexible nanoporous / amorphous composite material for hydrogen production by electrolysis of water and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the intensification of the world's energy crisis, the development of new energy is imminent. Among many new energy sources, hydrogen energy, as an efficient and clean energy source, has been widely concerned and applied in the 21st century. Hydrogen evolution reaction (HER: hydrogenevolution reaction) by electrolysis of water is an important means to realize industrial and cheap production of hydrogen. At present, the electrode materials used for HER generally have disadvantages such as high price, low specific surface area, and low electrocatalytic activity, which lead to high hydrogen evolution potential and high energy consumption of electrolytic electrodes...
