Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, the electrode substrate materials used for the electrochemical catalytic reduction of carbon dioxide are carbon paper, carbon cloth, carbon sheet, carbon felt and other materials with certain conductive properties. These carbon-based materials do not have a nano-network structure, and the catalyst cannot enter the interior of the substrate material. Composite with it efficiently; the current preparation method for the electrochemical catalytic reduction of carbon dioxide is the coating method, that is, the catalyst is coated on the substrate material. This method cannot make the catalyst and the substrate material tightly composite, and it is easy to make the catalyst Falling into the electrolyte solution, causing a drop in efficiency

Abstract

The invention relates to a copper / silver-based electrode taking a conductive bacterial cellulose composite film as a substrate, and the electrode is obtained by taking the composite film as the substrate and carrying out Cu / Ag ion in-situ chemical reduction, catalytic reduction or hydrothermal synthesis. Compared with a traditional electrode taking carbon cloth as a substrate, the catalytic electrode prepared by the invention has higher catalytic efficiency and longer electrode service life due to a three-dimensional nanofiber network structure, a high specific surface area and high conductivity. The preparation method is environmentally friendly, simple in process and short in preparation time. The electrode has good application prospects in the fields of carbon dioxide electrocatalytic reduction, fuel cells, photocatalysis, biocatalysis and the like, and has important significance in environmental protection, energy cyclic utilization and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electrode materials, in particular to a copper / silver-based electrode with a conductive bacterial cellulose composite film as the base. Background technique [0002] Bacterial nanocellulose (BC) is a kind of cellulose produced by microorganisms. Bacterial nanocellulose has excellent mechanical properties, low density and perfect 3D network structure. As a new material, bacterial nanocellulose is widely used in textiles. , medical, food, and conductive materials, compared with synthetic polymers, bacterial nanocellulose not only has good mechanical properties but also has renewable properties. [0003] With the outbreak of the industrial revolution, human beings demand and use fossil fuels more and more, which leads to the shortage of resources on a global scale and the greenhouse effect caused by carbon dioxide, which leads to a series of environmental problems, such as rising sea levels, melting glaciers, etc. . ...
