Problems solved by technology

However pure Cu 2 O as a photocatalyst has the following two disadvantages: (1) The electrons and holes generated by photoexcitation are easy to recombine on the surface of the catalyst and convert into thermal energy, thereby reducing the photoelectric conversion efficiency or hydrogen production of the catalytic process; (2) due to Cu 2 Cu in O is in an intermediate valence state (+1) and is easily oxidized, making it difficult to preserve the catalyst, and it is prone to photocorrosion to reduce the reactivity of the catalyst.
[0005] At present, there is no report about the cuprous oxide photoelectrode modified with cuprous sulfide and nickel sulfide simultaneously.

Abstract

The invention discloses a cuprous oxide / cuprous sulfide / nickel sulfide three-layer photoelectrode and preparation and application thereof. The cuprous oxide / cuprous sulfide / nickel sulfide three-layerphotoelectrode comprises a stannic oxide glass carrier, and a cuprous oxide film, a cuprous sulfide film and a nickel sulfide film are sequentially arranged on the conductive surface of the stannic oxide glass carrier from inside to outside. The preparation method comprises the following steps: preparing a cuprous oxide film on a stannic oxide glass carrier through electro-deposition; preparing acuprous sulfide film on the cuprous oxide film by adopting an anion exchange method to obtain a cuprous oxide / cuprous sulfide double-layer compound; and preparing nickel sulfide on the cuprous sulfidefilm by adopting a cation exchange method to obtain a cuprous oxide / cuprous sulfide / nickel sulfide three-layer compound so as to form the cuprous oxide / cuprous sulfide / nickel sulfide three-layer photoelectrode. The cuprous oxide / cuprous sulfide / nickel sulfide photocatalytic electrode prepared by the method does not contain noble metal, is relatively low in cost, simple in preparation process andhigh in photoelectric reduction efficiency, and has the characteristic of high catalytic activity when being used for reduction of nitroaromatic hydrocarbon.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a photoelectrode. In particular, it relates to a cuprous oxide / cuprous sulfide / nickel sulfide three-layer photoelectrode and its preparation and application. Background technique [0002] Water pollution caused by industrial production is a serious problem in the 21st century. Nitroaromatic compounds have high stability due to the existence of a strong electron-drawing group nitro, which is difficult to degrade in the natural environment. Reducing the nitro group and converting it into an amino group, since the amino group is an electron-donating group, can effectively improve the degradable activity of the aromatic compound. The reduction of existing nitroaromatic compounds requires strong reducing substances such as iron powder or sodium borohydride, and the cost is relatively high. Photoelectrochemical catalytic technology can combine photoelectric conversion and electrocatalysis to convert solar energy into electrical ene...
