Abstract

The invention provides an electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution and a preparation method and application thereof, belonging to the technical field of catalysts. The electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution is prepared from nickel ore through flotation and hot alkali reactions. According to the preparation method, nickel ore is used as a raw material and is widely available, and precious metal is not involved, so cost is low; the preparation method is simple in process and easy for industrial mass production; and the obtained hydrogen evolution electrocatalyst has excellent hydrogen evolution performance and good cycling stability, and is very suitable for industrial electrolysis of water to produce hydrogen. Data of embodiments in the invention shows that the overpotential of the hydrogen evolution electrocatalyst provided by the invention is only -48 mV under the condition of a current density of -10 mA / cm<2>; and after 10000 cycles through cyclic voltammetry, the hydrogen evolution overpotential of the hydrogen evolution electrocatalyst provided by the invention is changed into -59 mV.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of catalyst materials, in particular to a hydrogen evolution electrocatalyst and its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] The two major challenges facing mankind in the 21st century are energy crisis and environmental pollution. At present, hydrogen energy has become the most promising renewable energy due to its highest energy density and clean and pollution-free characteristics among conventional energy sources. [0003] The hydrogen evolution reaction is the cathodic half-reaction for total water splitting. The electrolyte used in the hydrogen evolution reaction can be acidic, neutral and alkaline electrolytes. The hydrogen evolution reaction in acidic electrolytes has a lower reaction barrier because it does not need to go through the water decomposition step. At present, the hydrogen evolution reaction consumes a large amount of electric energy, so from the perspective of e...
