Abstract

The invention relates to a simple electro-deposition Co-Ce / NF electrode material and preparation and application thereof.The preparation method comprises the following steps: (1) dissolving a cobalt source, a cerium source and ammonium chloride in deionized water and mixing the components until the solution is clear, thereby preparing an electro-deposition solution; (2) in an electro-deposition device filled with the electro-deposition solution in the step (1), with foamed nickel as a working electrode for connection, a silver chloride electrode as a reference electrode and a platinum wire electrode as a counter electrode, preparing a Co-Ce / NF material through a one-step electro-deposition method; and (3) washing and drying the obtained Co-Ce / NF material to obtain the target product Co-Ce / NF electrode material. Compared with the prior art, according to the Co-Ce / NF electrode material synthesized by the invention, rare earth elements cerium and cobalt form an alloy to generate a synergistic effect; the electrochemical performance of the cobalt alloy is improved by using the activity of rare earth elements, the surface area of the material is increased by using foamed nickel as a carrier, and in addition, the synthesis method is simple, convenient, low in energy consumption and excellent in electrochemical performance and is expected to be applied to industrial large-scale production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of hydrogen energy, and relates to a simple electrodeposited Co-Ce / NF electrode material and its preparation and application. Background technique [0002] Hydrogen energy is currently recognized as a sustainable and most promising clean energy that can replace fossil fuels in the future. Splitting water in alkaline solution is an efficient method widely used for hydrogen production. In recent years, great efforts have been made to obtain electrode materials with low hydrogen overpotential and high catalytic efficiency. Generally, Pt and other noble metals have been proposed as optimal electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). However, its widespread application in large-scale industrial hydrogen production is limited due to its scarcity and high cost. Therefore, promoting the development of earth-abundant new electrode materials to replace noble metal electrocatalysts remains a critical...
