Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of electrolyzed water devices and electrolyzed water processes, and particularly relates to a MOF-derived oxygen evolution catalyst and a preparation method and application thereof by laser rapid heating. Background Art
[0002] We are urgently in need of developing renewable energy to reduce the dependence on fossil fuels. Hydrogen energy has always been recognized as the most potential green energy carrier, with characteristics such as high energy density, light mass and easy transportation, clean and pollution-free energy release process, and rich reserves. It is an important raw material for fertilizer production, oil refining and hydrogenation in industry. Producing "green hydrogen" through electrocatalytic water splitting is a sustainable method with high efficiency and broad application prospects.
[0003] The electrolyzed water processes mainly include alkaline water electrolysis (AWE), proton exchange membrane (PEM), and anion exchange membrane (AEM), etc. AEM has attracted extensive attention due to its high hydrogen production efficiency and lower cost-benefit compared with PEM (transition metal catalysts can be used instead of platinum group metal catalysts, the membrane used in AEM electrolysis is cheaper than Nafion membrane, and stainless steel can be used instead of Ti as the porous transport layer and bipolar plate in AEM electrolysis). In AEM electrolyzed water devices, the electrocatalyst greatly affects the efficiency of hydrogen production by electrolyzed water. Therefore, designing and preparing electrocatalysts with high activity and stability is of great significance for promoting the development of electrolyzed water. Metal-organic framework (MOF) materials can be used as good precursors for synthesizing efficient catalysts due to their advantages such as high specific surface area, adjustable pore size, and well-defined metal nodes. Composites based on three-dimensional transition metals such as iron, cobalt, and nickel can generally be used as OER catalysts to replace commercial noble metals.
[0004] Direct laser scribing technology is an advanced printing technology that can convert non-conductive substances into active electrode materials by laser according to a set pattern. Compared with traditional methods, this preparation method is faster, has lower costs, and can print fine patterns with high precision. We hereby propose a method of using MOF materials as precursors, introducing metal iron-1,10-phenanthroline complex (Fe-Phen), and rapidly heating through direct laser scribing technology to prepare electrocatalysts with high activity and stability for electrolyzed water. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The present invention provides a MOF-derived AEM electrolytic water anode material, a preparation method thereof, and an application. The present invention mixes ZIF-67 with Fe-Phen and prepares a high-activity and stable anode electrode for AEM electrolytic water by direct laser scribing, selects and optimizes process parameters and raw material types during the preparation process, and solves the problems of scarcity, high price, and low catalytic efficiency of traditional noble metal catalysts, as well as the complex preparation process of loading powder catalysts onto electrodes and the introduction of binders to reduce the conductivity between the catalyst and the carrier.
