Abstract

The invention relates to preparation and application of a copper electrode for electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide. The preparation method of the electrode comprises the following steps: treating a substrate, oxidizing the substrate at a high temperature, mixing a precursor copper salt solution with an alkaline precipitator, a reducing agent and an additive according to a certain ratio, depositing copper by a hydrothermal method, performing electrochemical potentiostatic reduction, and washing with concentrated hydrochloric acid to prepare the copper electrode. According to the invention, the Cu oxide with the nanowire structure grows on the substrate through a chemical oxidation reaction; then, thin-layer nano-particles grow on the surface through hydrothermal reaction; a surfactant and a reducing agent are introduced in the hydrothermal reaction process; the surface active agent is used for directionally adsorbing the surface of the substrate metal; the growth orientation ofthe metal oxide can be regulated and controlled, a reducing agent is introduced through hydrothermal reaction deposition, the nanowire part of the substrate layer is reduced to form hole copper, nanocopper particles with high specific surface area are deposited on the surface of the hole copper, the active specific surface area of the copper electrode is increased, and the proportion of edge andcorner active sites is increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of preparation and application of a copper electrode for electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide, and in particular relates to the preparation and application of a copper electrode for electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of my country's social economy, people's demand for energy is increasing day by day, and the consumption of fossil energy such as coal, oil, and natural gas will cause CO in the air to 2 The excessive emission of gas and the resulting "greenhouse effect" have become increasingly prominent, which have seriously affected human survival and sustainable development of society. CO 2 As a rich carbon source, how to reduce its emissions and effectively convert it into high value-added chemicals has become a research hotspot for many researchers in the world in recent years. So far, for CO 2 There are many methods of fixation a...
