Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method and an electrocatalytic application of a nickel-doped Fe3O4 nano-powder. The preparation method comprises the following steps: adding certain proportions ofa nickel source and an iron source into a specially-made reaction solution to prepare a ferronickel pre-reaction solution, heating the pre-reaction solution for a certain time, and collecting to obtain a ferronickel precursor nano-powder; and placing the ferronickel precursor nano-powder in a tubular furnace, and carrying out annealing treatment under the protection of nitrogen to obtain the nickel-doped Fe3O4 nano-powder. The introduction of active atom nickel makes the nickel-doped Fe3O4 nano-powder have an excellent catalytic activity in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) of water decomposition and have an overpotential of 0.293 V (relative to a standard hydrogen electrode), a Tafel slope of 43 mV / dec and a charge transfer resistance of 34 ohms.
