Problems solved by technology

However, the current reports on the preparation of one-dimensional nanostructures by liquid phase self-assembly methods mainly focus on metal oxides, while the reports on the preparation of one-dimensional transition metal sulfide nanostructures by self-assembly methods are still very limited.

Embodiment 1

[0027] NeS 2 The growth of the nanotube material was accomplished as follows: 0.2 mmol nickel chloride (NiCl 2 ·6H 2 O), 0.5 mmol sodium thiosulfate (Na 2 S 2 o 3 ·6H 2 O) and 0.11g of polyvinylpyrrolidone were dissolved in 60mL of deionized water to obtain an aqueous reaction solution; the aqueous reaction solution was transferred to a 100mL polytetrafluoroethylene autoclave, and the treated foamed nickel (size 1 × 3cm) was put into the reaction in the cauldron. Keep the reactor at 150°C for 10h, after cooling to room temperature, wash the nickel foam thoroughly with deionized water and ethanol, and then dry it at 70°C for 10h to obtain a bifunctional electrolytic water catalyst.

Abstract

The invention discloses a bifunctional water electrolysis catalyst and a preparation method and application thereof. In the bifunctional water electrolysis catalyst, NiS2 nanotubes approximately vertically grow on a substrate in an array form, the diameter of the NiS2 nanotubes is 20-80nm, and the length of the NiS2 nanotubes is 100-500nm. The formation of the nanotubes has undergone a nanosheet crimping process. The nanotube array grows on the foamed nickel substrate in situ, the NiS2 material shows excellent electro-catalytic performance on hydrogen production half reaction (HER) and oxygenevolution half reaction (OER) of water decomposition due to the special structure of the one-dimensional nanotubes, and the electro-catalytic performance is higher than that of other NiS2 materials inthe prior art. Particularly, when the bifunctional water electrolysis catalyst is used as a cathode and an anode of a two-electrode system at the same time to carry out a full-water-splitting reaction, the current of 10mA / cm < 2 > can be obtained by only needing the voltage of 1.58 V.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to catalysts, in particular to nickel sulfide (NiS 2 ) nanotube material and its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] Electrochemical water splitting to produce hydrogen and oxygen is a research hotspot in recent years. In practical applications, in order to accelerate the hydrogen production half reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution half reaction (OER), efficient electrocatalysts need to be developed. Although Pt and Ru / Ir-based materials have been proven to be highly efficient electrocatalysts for HER and OER, respectively, their low reserves and high price limit their large-scale use. In the past five years, various cheap and abundant materials have been developed as electrocatalysts for HER and OER, including transition metal oxides, sulfides, selenides, phosphides, nitrides, and carbides, etc. Among these materials, transition metal sulfides NiS 2 Due to its excellent electrocatalytic p...
