Embodiment 1

[0041] One-dimensional TiO activated by MXene quantum dots 2 Preparation of nanocomposite photoanode:

[0042] Prepare a polytetrafluoroethylene high-temperature reactor liner with a capacity of 50 ml, add 15 ml of ultrapure water and 15 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid into it, and stir for 5 min at a speed of 1000 r / min. Subsequently, 0.45ml of tetrabutyl titanate was added dropwise into the inner container, followed by stirring for 15 minutes until the solution in the inner container became clear. Slowly immerse the cleaned FTO glass against the inner wall of the liner with the conductive surface facing down in the prepared precursor solution, and place the liner in a high-temperature stainless steel reaction kettle, and heat it at 150°C for 12 hours. After the water heating is over, take out the FTO glass in the liner, rinse it several times with deionized water, and blow it dry with nitrogen. It can be found that a layer of white substance, namely TiO2, grows on the ...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of photoelectrode material preparation and photoelectrocatalysis, and particularly relates to preparation and application of an MXene quantum dot activated one-dimensional TiO2 nano composite photoanode. MXene quantum dots, non-conjugated polyelectrolyte PDDA and a one-dimensional TiO2 nanorod array are combined together in an electrostatic layer-by-layer self-assembly mode to form a multi-layer heterojunction photoanode, and is applied to photoelectrocatalytic water decomposition. According to the preparation method, the MXene quantum dots are used for activating the one-dimensional TiO2 nanostructure coated with the polyelectrolyte for the first time, the prepared photoanode has efficient photoelectrocatalysis capacity, and the loading capacity of the MXene quantum dots can be achieved by regulating and controlling the number of self-assembly layers. The whole preparation process is simple, the design principle is reliable, and sustainable development of the environment and energy is facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of photoelectrode material preparation and photoelectric catalysis, and in particular relates to a one-dimensional TiO activated by MXene quantum dots 2 Preparation method of nanocomposite photoanode and its application in photocatalytic water splitting. Background technique [0002] In the early 1970s, Fujishima and Honda in Japan first discovered TiO 2 It can be used for photocatalytic decomposition of water to produce hydrogen. Since then, semiconductor photocatalysis and photoelectrocatalytic decomposition of water for hydrogen production have begun. [0003] For existing metal oxide semiconductors, TiO 2 Due to their good chemical stability, non-toxicity and low cost, they are widely used as benchmark semiconductors for photocatalytic reactions. One-dimensional nanostructured TiO grown directly from a conductive substrate 2 Most typically, their structural advantages are highly ordered nanostructure...
