Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of functional nanomaterials technology, specifically relating to a method for preparing Fe / Cu / N doped porous carbon nanotubes and their application in electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reactions. Background Technology
[0002] Due to increasingly serious environmental problems and rapid growth in global energy demand, developing new clean energy devices is considered an effective strategy to alleviate the energy crisis and environmental pollution. Among these, fuel cells and metal-air batteries have become hot topics. Although platinum-based metal (PGM) catalysts exhibit significant catalytic performance for the electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), their high cost severely limits large-scale commercialization. Therefore, developing efficient, long-lasting, and low-cost ORR catalysts is of great significance for reducing the platinum load on fuel cells and for their practical application.
[0003] Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are crystalline materials with ultra-high porosity and extremely high surface area, and have been widely developed as sources of various controllable structural nanomaterials for electrochemical devices. MOFs not only combine with metal nodes bridged by organic ligands to provide the transition metals (TMs), carbon, and heteroatoms required for catalysis, but also possess controlled periodicity, making them important precursors for preparing highly efficient MNC catalysts for ORR processes. In recent years, Zn-MOFs have been considered suitable precursors for preparing carbon-based materials, possessing various surface geometries, large surface areas, and abundant pores. Fe-NC catalysts have attracted widespread attention due to their excellent ORR activity in both alkaline and acidic solutions. They are often formed with Zn to form bimetallic organic frameworks, followed by high-temperature annealing and zinc source evaporation, which induces abundant defects on the carbon support and endows Fe-NC with a porous structure. However, the carbon materials formed by this method still have some shortcomings in terms of durability, and their electrocatalytic oxygen reduction performance needs further improvement. Cu, second only to platinum in the volcano diagram, is a promising electrocatalytic oxygen reduction raw material among transition metals. Introducing Cu into a zinc-iron bimetallic organic framework can suppress the generation of H2O2 during electrocatalytic oxygen reduction. Simultaneously, the electronegativity difference between Fe and Cu can induce electron transfer between them, thereby optimizing the electronic structure of Fe and the bonding strength between reaction intermediates and active sites. However, Cu-based carbon materials obtained through pyrolysis often suffer from self-aggregation, irreversible integration, and surface oxidation due to their large ion diffusion coefficient. Furthermore, current research on the application of Fe@Cu-NC in electrocatalysis primarily involves co-doping iron and copper nanoparticles onto a zero-dimensional carbon framework. Therefore, a low-cost and simple preparation method is needed to obtain carbon materials with unique structures, ensuring good stability and high yield for their electrocatalytic applications. This invention aims to synthesize one-dimensional trimetallic MOF tubes and, by controlling the content of Zn, Fe, and Cu and the post-treatment method, to regulate the composition and structure of the carbon nanotubes, ultimately improving the electrocatalytic oxygen reduction performance of Fe@Cu-NC materials. Summary of the Invention

Then, add 1.2 g of PAN under magnetic stirring. The stirring speed is 300 rpm, the stirring time is 20 h, and the stirring temperature is maintained between 25℃ and 30℃ to prevent crystallization of the spinning solution. After complete dissolution, an electrospinning solution is obtained. The electrospinning solution is then used to prepare PAN / H3BTC nanofiber films by electrospinning. The electrospinning voltage is 15 kV, the spinning solution feed rate is 0.4 mL / h, and the distance between the needle and the copper mesh receiving plate is 18 cm.
[0041] 0.07 g of PAN / H3BTC nanofiber film was immersed in 50 mL of a trimetallic salt solution containing 1.418 g Zn(NO3)2·6H2O, 0.48 g Cu(NO3)2·3H2O, and 0.706 g Fe(acac)3 dissolved in ethanol. The solution was covered and sealed with plastic wrap and placed in an oven at 60 °C for 7 h. The product was then removed, washed with ethanol, and dried under vacuum at 60 °C to obtain PAN / Zn@Fe@Cu-BTC fiber film.

[0043] Step 3: Place the Zn@Fe@Cu-BTC nanotubes at the lower air outlet of the quartz tube and place the dicyandiamine (DCDA) at the upper air outlet. The mass ratio of Zn@Fe@Cu-BTC nanotubes to dicyandiamine is 1:18. Then, transfer it to a Nabor Thermal high-temperature calcination furnace and heat it to 950°C at a heating rate of 5°C / min under a nitrogen atmosphere. Hold it at this temperature for 3 hours to obtain Fe / Cu / N doped porous carbon nanotube material, denoted as Fe@Cu-NC.

[0052] Step 1: Take 16 mL of DMF as solvent and place it in a 20 mL glass bottle. Weigh 1.28 g of H3BTC and dissolve it in DMF by sonication for 10 min. Then, add 1.2 g of PAN under magnetic stirring. The stirring speed is 300 rpm, the stirring time is 20 h, and the stirring temperature is maintained between 25℃ and 30℃ to prevent crystallization of the spinning solution.

The electrospinning voltage is 15 kV, the spinning solution feed rate is 0.4 mL / h, and the distance between the needle and the copper mesh receiving plate is 18 cm.
[0053] 0.07 g of PAN / H3BTC nanofiber film was immersed in 50 mL of a bimetallic salt solution containing 0.48 g of Cu(NO3)2·3H2O and 0.706 g of Fe(acac)3 dissolved in ethanol. The solution was covered and sealed with plastic wrap and placed in an oven at 60 °C for 7 h. The product was then removed, washed with ethanol, and dried under vacuum at 60 °C to obtain PAN / Fe@Cu-BTC fiber film.
[0054] Step 2: Immerse the PAN / Fe@Cu-BTC fiber film in 20 mL of LDM for 5 min to etch away the polyacrylonitrile, then wash with ethanol, centrifuge, and freeze dry to obtain Fe@Cu-BTC nanotubes.
[0055] Step 3: Place the Fe@Cu-BTC nanotubes in a quartz tube and then transfer them to a Nabtech high-temperature calcination furnace. Under a nitrogen atmosphere, heat the material to 950°C at a heating rate of 5°C / min and hold for 3 hours to obtain Fe / Cu / N doped porous carbon nanotube material with low nitrogen doping content, denoted as Fe@Cu-NC.
[0056] Figure 9 The images show transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images (a) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images (b) of the target product obtained in step 3 of this embodiment. It can be seen from the images that no bamboo-like carbon nanotubes grow on the Fe@Cu-NC tube when it is not calcined with DCDA.
