Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of hydrogen energy technology, and in particular to a defective carbon material supported molybdenum disulfide-based composite material X-CTAB-Y and its preparation and application. Background Technology

[0002] With economic development and ever-increasing energy demand, the environmental problems caused by human use of fossil fuels are becoming increasingly serious. However, with the over-exploitation and use of fossil fuels, a series of difficulties and challenges have arisen, including limited crustal reserves, the depletion of surface fossil fuels leading to restrictions and cost constraints on deep-sea extraction. More importantly, the large-scale use of fossil fuels has caused extremely negative environmental problems and impacts on daily human production and life. Harmful gases produced during the use of fossil fuels, such as CO2 and NO... x and SO x However, this will cause irreversible damage to the environment in the long run. Promoting sustainable energy development has become an inevitable trend. my country is committed to energy conservation, emission reduction, and energy structure transformation, but it needs to solve the problems of renewable energy storage and sustainable utilization. Hydrogen energy, as an ideal high-energy-density (142.35 kJ / kg) energy source, offers a solution. -1 Hydrogen energy is a secondary energy source, with water as its only combustion product, unlike fossil fuels which produce byproducts, making it one of the best clean energy sources. Besides its high energy density, hydrogen energy also has the following advantages: abundant raw materials for hydrogen production, as it can be directly produced from water; and convenient storage and transportation, as it can be stored in high-pressure tanks in gaseous or liquid form, or in solid hydrogen storage materials. Therefore, hydrogen energy has immeasurable application prospects in solving the environmental pollution problems and energy shortage crisis caused by fossil fuels. Currently, hydrogen production is still in its early stages, mainly through chemical methods such as water-gas reforming, which generates pollutants and fails to meet the requirements of clean production. Electrolysis of water, as a method for producing high-purity hydrogen, does not produce greenhouse gases during the process, and the purity of the produced hydrogen can reach over 99.7%, sufficient to meet the requirements of actual production. However, large-scale application of water electrolysis is currently not feasible due to the large overpotential compared to the theoretical water decomposition voltage of 1.23V, resulting in high costs and limited promotion.

[0003] Highly efficient electrocatalysts are required for hydrogen production through water electrolysis. These electrocatalysts should possess low overpotentials to achieve efficient electrochemical reactions. Currently, electrocatalysts mainly include noble metal-based electrocatalysts, transition metal-based electrocatalysts, and non-metal-based electrocatalysts. Among them, platinum-based catalysts are commercially used due to their high efficiency and stability. However, their extremely scarce abundance in the Earth's crust makes them prohibitively expensive. Therefore, it is necessary to replace the structure of non-noble metal catalysts. Developing efficient, stable, and scalable low-cost electrocatalysts is key to realizing the "hydrogen economy" blueprint. Rational design of transition metal-based electrocatalysts can solve the critical problems of high prices and limited precious metal resources in current electrocatalysts. However, in acidic media, transition metal-based electrocatalysts suffer from easy corrosion and short lifespan. Therefore, it is necessary to construct acid-resistant carbon support composite materials to increase the corrosion resistance and long lifespan of these electrocatalysts. Summary of the Invention

The mass ratio of X-CTAB-MoS2 to the molten salt mixture is (1:2)-(2:1); The high-temperature calcination temperature is 400-800℃, and the high-temperature calcination time is 2-6 hours; The inert gas atmosphere includes argon and / or nitrogen. The molten salt mixture is selected from two or more of KCl, LiCl, and NaCl; In the X-CTAB-MoS2-SD, SD represents sulfur-defective molybdenum sulfide (MoS2). z The sulfur-defect molybdenum sulfide MoS₂ z 1 <Z<2。 7. The application of the defective carbon material supported molybdenum disulfide-based composite material X-CTAB-Y as described in any one of claims 1 to 6 in the electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution under acidic conditions.

8. The application of the defective carbon material supported molybdenum disulfide-based composite material X-CTAB-Y as described in any one of claims 1 to 6 in a hydrogen electrolyzer or fuel cell.
