Abstract

The invention provides a bifunctional oxygen electrocatalyst taking a hollow carbon nanotube as a carrier and preparation. A dopamine hydrochloride coated halloysite nanotube as a precursor, a hollow carbon nanotube is acquired through heat treatment and acid pickling, then nickel-cobalt metal oxide is added, a NiCo-LDH nanosheet is grown and formed on the surface of the hollow carbon nanotube carrier, after heat treatment, a highly-ordered hollow NC@ NiCo2O4 nano composite material is formed and is used as a catalyst with oxygen reduction performance and oxygen evolution performance in a metal-air battery. The invention also provides an application of the difunctional oxygen electrocatalyst in the metal-air battery. According to the bifunctional oxygen electrocatalyst, the halloysite nanotube and the dopamine hydrochloride are combined to construct the nitrogen-doped hollow carbon nanotube, and the metal oxide NiCo2O4 and the hollow carbon nanotube are combined into a whole so that the catalytic activity of a catalyst ORR and the catalytic activity of a catalyst OER can be remarkably improved, a noble metal oxygen electrocatalyst is replaced, the cost of the catalyst and a metal-air battery is reduced, and good commercial application prospects are realized.
