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 present invention relates to a CO 2 Nano array electrode for electrochemical reduction and its preparation. The electrode is completed in one step by electrochemical anodic oxidation technology. The catalyst particles on the surface of the electrode are distributed in the form of nano-arrays. The preparation of the electrode includes the following steps: first, the substrate material is degreased and impurity-removed; then, the substrate material is soaked in an anodic oxidation solution containing a cationic surfactant for electrochemical anodic oxidation treatment to obtain a nanometer surface. array of modified electrodes. The characteristic of this method is that the nano-array modified metal electrode can be prepared in one step, which shortens the preparation cycle; the diameter and length of the catalyst in the nano-array of the prepared electrode can be flexibly adjusted by adjusting the anodic oxidation parameters, which can meet the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide. Technology needs to expand the electrode reaction area.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide, and particularly relates to an electrode material in this field and a preparation technology thereof. Background technique [0002] Electrochemical reduction of CO 2 (ERC) technology is the use of electrical energy to convert CO 2 Reduction to the target product to achieve CO 2 A technology for transformation and efficient use. Since this technology can utilize water as a protonated hydrogen source, it has the advantages of abundant resources and low cost. In addition, the technology can be carried out at normal temperature and pressure, so there is no need for energy consumption caused by heating and pressurization required by chemical conversion technology, and equipment investment is low. [0003] At present, the main factors for the slow development of ERC technology include: (1) high reaction overpotential; (2) low catalytic activity; (3) poor target p...
