Abstract

This invention relates to the field of electrocatalysis technology, specifically to a single-element selenium-nickel-iron alloy composite electrocatalyst, its preparation method, and its application. Using nickel chloride, ferrous sulfate, urea, ammonium fluoride, and selenium dioxide as precursors, a two-step hydrothermal method is employed. In the first step, a nickel-iron alloy is prepared in situ on a foamed iron substrate using nickel chloride, ferrous sulfate, urea, and ammonium fluoride precursors. In the second step, selenium dioxide is used as a selenium source to composite elemental selenium with the nickel-iron alloy, resulting in the in-situ growth of a single-element selenium-nickel-iron alloy block catalyst on a foamed iron substrate. The electrocatalyst of this invention exhibits excellent catalytic activity and stability in the electrocatalytic water desorption oxygen reaction, meeting the requirements for large-scale industrial applications.
