Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electrocatalysis, in particular to a method for rapidly preparing a transition metal oxygen evolution catalyst by utilizing seawater. Background technique [0002] Seawater accounts for about 71% of the earth's surface area, and the stock of water in seawater is about 1.3*10 9 Billion tons, accounting for about 97% of the total water volume of the earth. At the same time, there are a large number of macro and trace elements in seawater, and seawater is highly corrosive, and its decomposition voltage is much lower than that of water. It can electrolyze seawater at a lower voltage and save energy. [0003] At the same time, with the depletion of fossil fuels and the increasingly serious energy crisis, people pay more attention to the development of renewable energy. Since the early 1970s, hydrogen has been regarded as an ideal clean energy. Electrolyzed water can also get the oxygen necessary for human survival. H...
