Problems solved by technology

A prominent defect of this type of metal electrode is that the electrode reaction area is small, and it is only concentrated on the surface in contact with the supporting electrolyte, which constitutes a high ERC reaction overpotential and CO 2 An important reason for the low conversion rate; in addition, the covering and poisoning effect of the intermediate product on the electrode during the ERC reaction process will rapidly reduce the effective reaction area of ​​the electrode, and the electrode will quickly lose its activity.

Abstract

The invention relates to a nanometer array electrode used for CO2 electrochemical reduction, and preparation thereof. The nanometer array electrode is prepared through electrochemical anodic oxidationone-step method; on the surface of the electrode, catalytic particles are distributed in nanometer arrays. The preparation method of the electrode comprises following steps: firstly, a substrate material is subjected to oil removing and impurity removing processing; the substrate material is immersed in an anodic oxidation containing a cationic surfactant for electrochemical anodic oxidation processing so as to obtain the modified electrode with nanometer arrays on the surface. The characteristics are that: the nanometer array modified metal electrode is prepared in one step, preparation period is shortened; the catalyst diameter and length in the electrode nanometer arrays can be flexibly regulated and controlled through adjusting anodic oxidation parameters, and requirements of carbon dioxide electrochemical reduction technology on enlarging of electrode reaction area are satisfied.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of carbon dioxide electrochemical reduction, and particularly relates to electrode materials in this field and preparation techniques thereof. Background technique [0002] Electrochemical reduction of CO 2 (ERC) technology is the use of electric energy to reduce CO 2 Reduce to target product, realize CO 2 A technology for transformation and effective use. Since this technology can use water as a protonated hydrogen source, it has the advantages of abundant resources and low cost. In addition, the technology can be carried out under normal temperature and pressure, so the energy consumption caused by heating and pressurization required by chemical conversion technology is not required, and the equipment investment is small. [0003] At present, the main factors for the slow development of ERC technology include: (1) high reaction overpotential; (2) low catalytic activity; (3) poor selectivity of target products. ...
