Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of nanomaterials and energy technologies, and in particular to a high-performance integrated oxygen evolution reaction electrode material, a preparation method and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] High-purity hydrogen production from water electrolysis is a key area of ​​recent development in new energy. Electrochemical energy storage and conversion technologies, exemplified by proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolysis, have attracted widespread global attention due to their ability to effectively address the intermittent supply constraints of renewable clean energy and their environmentally friendly nature. However, energy consumption, driven by the catalytic performance of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), hinders the technical and economic feasibility of PEM water electrolysis for large-scale market adoption. Despite significant progress in the development of acidic OER catalysts suitable for PEM technology, the primary focus has been on the development and design of powdered active materials. Consequently, the bonding strength between the active material and the conductive current collector is limited by the chromatographic properties of the binder. Maintaining the stability of the working electrode under external conditions, such as binder aging caused by the oxidative reaction environment and mechanical erosion of the electrolyte, remains a significant challenge. Furthermore, the multi-interface system resulting from the supported structure reduces electrode conductivity and increases system internal resistance, while also limiting the active material loading capacity. By in-situ growing on the surface of a conductive substrate, and utilizing chemical or non-chemical bonding, the integrated design of the conductive current collector and catalytic material has become an ideal electrode preparation method. This in-situ composite strategy not only increases the effective loading of the active material, but also provides a tight connection that takes into account both the electrical contact between the active material and the current collector and the stability of the electrode structure.

[0003] Manganese oxides are low-cost, environmentally friendly, and acid-stable transition metal oxides. Based on the diverse bonding patterns of the MnO6 octahedral unit, they exhibit a rich variety of polymorphic structures, such as MnO, MnO2, Mn2O3, and Mn3O4. These polymorphic structures are considered promising materials for a wide range of electrochemical applications. MnO2, with its extensive corner-sharing structure, is the most widely studied alkaline OER catalytic material. However, cutting-edge research has found that these materials often undergo a phase transition to an edge-sharing octahedral structure at the interface after the OER reaction. These findings suggest that edge-sharing polymorphic manganese oxides (such as MnO and Mn2O3), with their shorter interatomic distances and more bonding sites than conventional MnO2, may be more favorable for the OER reaction. However, their diverse metastable nature poses challenges in the controlled synthesis of specific crystalline structures for manganese oxides. At the same time, the acidic OER catalytic performance of single manganese oxide is limited and cannot meet the basic performance requirements for commercial applications. Relying on the atomic structure characteristics of manganese oxide to further enhance the intrinsic catalytic activity of the material is another challenge to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is: In view of the shortcomings of the prior art described above, the present invention provides a high-performance integrated oxygen evolution reaction electrode material, preparation method, and application to address the difficulties in integrated design and low catalytic performance of existing electrode materials. The preparation method of the present invention obtains an in-situ grown ruthenium-loaded manganese oxide electrode material, which can achieve in-situ, controllable synthesis of manganese oxide polycrystalline materials (MnO, Mn2O3, Mn3O4, etc.) with rich edge-sharing atomic structural features on the surface of the conductive current collector. Through cation exchange, the manganese oxide interface cations are replaced with highly active precious metal elements (ruthenium, iridium, etc.), achieving a further leap in OER performance and greatly improving the intrinsic activity of the active sites.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the technical problem is: a method for preparing a high-performance integrated oxygen evolution reaction electrode material, comprising the following steps:

[0006] S1: In a three-electrode system, a high-conductivity three-dimensional electrode material is placed in an acidic electrolyte containing manganese ions, and amorphous manganese oxide is grown in situ on the surface of the electrode material by electrochemical deposition.

[0007] S2: The electrode material having amorphous manganese oxide on the surface obtained in step S1 is subjected to a high-temperature calcination treatment to controllably synthesize different manganese oxide crystal structures, wherein the manganese oxide includes one or more of MnO, Mn2O3, and Mn3O4;

[0008] S3: Combined with cation exchange, the surface interface of different manganese oxide-loaded three-dimensional electrode materials obtained in step S2 is modified with ruthenium sites (i.e., high-activity sites) to obtain high-performance acidic oxygen evolution electrode materials, thereby realizing the preparation of high-performance acidic oxygen evolution electrodes.

[0009] Preferably, the high-conductivity three-dimensional electrode material is one or more of carbon paper, carbon cloth, titanium felt, and stainless steel.

[0010] Furthermore, before the electrochemical deposition treatment in step S1, the substrate of the three-dimensional high-conductivity electrode material is treated with one or more of acetone, methanol, ethanol, deionized water, nitric acid, hydrochloric acid, and sulfuric acid. This treatment first removes impurities from the substrate surface and then effectively changes the hydrophilicity of the interface (the untreated substrate surface has localized hydrophobicity), which helps to improve the effective contact between the substrate and the electrolyte during the electrodeposition process.

[0011] Furthermore, the acidic electrolyte containing manganese ions in step S1 is an aqueous solution containing 0.5 M H2SO4, 0.2 M manganese salt and 0.6 M potassium salt, wherein M is mol / L.

[0012] Preferably, the manganese salt is one or more of manganese acetate, manganese sulfate, manganese nitrate, manganese chloride and manganese perchlorate.

[0013] Preferably, the potassium salt refers to one or more of potassium acetate, potassium sulfate, potassium nitrate, potassium chloride, and potassium perchlorate.

[0014] Specifically, the electrochemical deposition method in step S1 refers to performing an in-situ electrochemical deposition process for 30 to 10,000 seconds under a constant current density, wherein the constant current density is 0.1-10 mA cm -2 .

[0015] Furthermore, the high-temperature calcination process in step S2 is carried out under the protection of an inert gas such as nitrogen or argon.

[0016] Furthermore, in step S2, the high temperature calcination temperature is 100-900°C and the time is 1-3 hours. During the high temperature calcination process, the temperature is maintained at a constant temperature, and the material is subjected to a constant temperature heat treatment, and the temperature does not change during the constant temperature process.

[0017] Specifically, the cation exchange method in step S3 refers to immersing the three-dimensional electrode material loaded with manganese oxide in an aqueous solution containing ruthenium or iridium ions for 0.01-1 hour. After the immersion, it is washed with deionized water multiple times, and then dried and calcined.

[0018] The aqueous solution of ruthenium ions is prepared using a ruthenium salt with a salt ion concentration of 19 mol / L; the ruthenium salt is selected from one or more of ruthenium acetate, ruthenium nitrate, and ruthenium chloride;

[0019] The aqueous solution of iridium ions is prepared using iridium salts with a salt ion concentration of 19 mol / L; the iridium salts are selected from one or more of iridium acetate, iridium nitrate, and iridium chloride.

[0020] Furthermore, the drying step is performed at a temperature of 50-80° C. for 2-24 hours.

[0021] Furthermore, the calcination atmosphere is air, the temperature is 150-250° C., and the calcination time is 0.5-3 hours.

[0022] The preparation method of this invention utilizes electrochemical deposition to achieve in-situ growth of amorphous manganese oxide on the surface of a high-conductivity three-dimensional electrode material. High-temperature calcination allows for the controlled synthesis of different manganese oxide crystal structures (MnO, Mn2O3, and Mn3O4). Combined with cation exchange technology, highly active sites (such as Ru) are modified on the surface of the various manganese oxide-loaded three-dimensional electrode materials, enabling the preparation of high-performance acidic oxygen evolution electrodes. The manganese oxide crystal structures (MnO, Mn2O3, and Mn3O4) obtained using this preparation method are rich in edge-sharing MnO6 octahedral structural units, which facilitates structural stability and enhances catalytic activity in acidic reaction systems. The three-dimensional electrode materials prepared using this method exhibit high activity in the acidic oxygen evolution reaction. The method is easy to operate, highly controllable, and reproducible, making it an ideal technical approach for preparing a new generation of acidic oxygen evolution electrode materials.

[0023] A high-performance integrated oxygen evolution reaction electrode material is obtained by adopting the above-mentioned preparation method.

[0024] Furthermore, the electrode material includes noble metal element active sites, a manganese oxide crystal structure with edge-sharing MnO6 octahedral structural elements, and a corrosion-resistant, high-conductivity three-dimensional electrode material substrate.

[0025] The invention discloses an application of a high-performance integrated oxygen evolution reaction electrode material, wherein the high-performance integrated oxygen evolution reaction electrode material is used as an anode material of an acidic aqueous solution electrolysis cell.

[0026] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0027] (1) The high-performance integrated oxygen evolution reaction electrode material of the present invention realizes the integration of manganese oxide polycrystalline structure and conductive current collector, effectively improving the electrical contact between the active material and the current collector and the stability of the electrode structure. Furthermore, through the controllable synthesis of manganese-based polycrystalline materials rich in edge-sharing structures and the in-situ interface substitution of ruthenium components through cation exchange, the catalytic performance of the active material for oxygen evolution reaction is significantly improved.

The results are shown in FIG. Figure 5 .from Figure 5 It can be seen that different integrated electrode materials all showed excellent OER catalytic performance in acidic electrolyte systems, among which Ru-Mn2O3 / CC integrated electrode material showed the best OER catalytic performance at 10 mAcm -2 The overpotential under current density conditions is only 170 mV, which is better than most other reported acidic OER catalysts.
