Abstract

The invention relates to an electrode for electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide and application thereof. A catalyst is an ordered core-shell catalyst. The preparation method of the electrode comprises the following steps: pretreatment of a substrate: immersing a substrate layer into a certain amount of a mixture of sodium hydroxide and oxide, and preparing a CuOx nanowire/Cu substrate by a chemical oxidation method; adding a reducing agent and an additive into copper salt, mixing according to a certain proportion, performing Cu deposition by utilizing variable current density, carrying out washing, drying and baking, and then putting the obtained electrode into a CO2 saturated electrolyte for reduction at a constant potential, and carrying out washing and drying; and soaking the prepared gas diffusion electrode in a concentrated hydrochloric acid solution with the concentration of 36%-38% to obtain the electrode. The vacancy copper has more active areas and defect sites and the coupling synergistic effect among the components is utilized, so that the selectivity and activity of the hydrocarbon are improved. By utilizing the interaction between Cu<+> and each metal, CO2 electroreduction is limited in a functional structural domain, so that the loss of the catalyst in the CO2 reduction process is avoided, and the stability of the catalyst is improved.
