Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution, and in particular to an electrode for hydrogen evolution and a preparation method thereof, and a hydrogen evolution reaction device. Background Art
[0002] The key condition for the realization of electrocatalytic hydrogen production is the development and application of efficient hydrogen evolution catalysts. Hydrogen evolution catalysts include metal-based catalysts and non-metal-based catalysts. Non-metal-based catalysts can effectively improve catalytic performance by regulating the intrinsic electronic structure and chemical environment of the substrate through laboratory doping, and have become a research hotspot in universities and research institutes. However, due to the limitations of technical conditions, equipment precision and scale, the process of realizing industrial application is still difficult. The research on metal catalysts in hydrogen evolution catalysts has a history of nearly half a century and has been industrialized. The early research and application of hydrogen evolution catalysts focused on the Raney nickel alloy coated cathode used in chlor-alkali batteries, mainly focusing on how to realize and control the cost of hydrogen evolution reaction. In the 1990s, research on stainless steel cathodes and their surface doping improvements began, and some research on perovskite catalysts was conducted to improve the efficiency of hydrogen evolution catalysts and reduce costs.
[0003] The grain size and shape of traditional hydrogen evolution catalysts are irregular, and their arrangement is irregular. They have different electron-binding abilities for hydrogen ions and atoms in the electrolyte, which leads to inconsistent hydrogen evolution reaction rates. The catalyst also has different dissolution and consumption rates due to electron transfer during the reaction. At the same time, traditional catalysts and their manufacturing processes are prone to crystal agglomeration. After crystal agglomeration, the adsorption and desorption surface of the hydrogen evolution reaction is reduced. After the hydrogen evolution reaction occurs on a larger surface of the crystal, the hydrogen aggregation becomes larger, the desorption rate slows down, the solution resistance increases, and the energy consumption of the hydrogen evolution reaction increases. The crystals after agglomeration have irregular shapes. After the hydrogen evolution reaction occurs on the surface, the hydrogen aggregation has an increased impact on the irregular crystals, which accelerates the peeling of the catalytic crystals and shortens the service life of the catalyst. In locations where the catalytic crystals are less covered, the energy consumption of the hydrogen evolution reaction is relatively large and the speed is relatively slow. The amount of hydrogen produced in the electrolyte is different and the distribution is uneven, resulting in uneven solution resistance and high local energy and heat generation of the catalyst. The catalytic energy consumption increases while the catalyst life is shortened.
[0004] In addition, catalysts made by traditional processes are prone to agglomeration due to uneven catalyst growth, which may form cracks of varying degrees on the surface of the carrier. Although these cracks increase the surface area of the catalytic reaction to a certain extent, in acid-base corrosive electrolytes, the cracks will accelerate the peeling of the catalyst from the matrix, which is not conducive to extending the service life of the catalyst.
[0005] Among the numerous noble metal hydrogen evolution catalysts, platinum-based noble metal catalysts have excellent HER activity, but they are susceptible to poisoning, and their catalytic activity and tolerance in acidic and alkaline media are also different, which greatly limits the application of platinum-based noble metal catalysts. In order to overcome the technical defects of unstable HER activity, short service life in acidic media, and easy poisoning and inactivation of platinum-based noble metal catalysts, the present invention combines the research on industrial production conditions and the action mechanism of the catalytic activity of hydrogen evolution of platinum-based catalysts, and through the control of the production process of platinum-based noble metal catalysts, develops a corrosion-resistant hydrogen evolution catalyst that can be industrialized, can be stably exerted in both acidic and alkaline media for a long time, has no inactivation of hydrogen evolution catalytic action, and has a lower hydrogen evolution overpotential. After the corrosion-resistant hydrogen evolution catalyst is double-layered, the catalyst can be tightly combined with the carrier, making the conductivity more excellent and the service life longer.

By adopting ruthenium platinum metal and its oxide, and utilizing a catalyst layer deposited on the surface of a carrier coated with a multi-catalytic layer under the action of ultrasonic vibration, after being calcined for 0.5h-1.0h in an atmosphere of 350°C-550°C, an ultrasonic compaction catalyst layer with uniform crystal distribution, compact combination and density formed by aggregation of nano materials can be formed on the surface of the carrier, so that the crystal particles of the corrosion-resistant hydrogen evolution catalyst of the present invention are uniform and small, and the surface is smooth and flat, and the number of overall active points of the catalyst is increased, so that the catalyst has a lower hydrogen evolution overpotential under harsh acid and alkaline conditions, a longer service life and a stronger hydrogen evolution catalytic ability. Such structural features, on the one hand, greatly increase the contact area with the electrolyte, allowing the hydrogen evolution reaction to occur rapidly, allowing hydrogen to be rapidly desorbed and desorbed on the smooth and dense catalyst surface. On the other hand, the ultrasonic compaction catalyst layer has a dense structure with uniform, fine crystal particles and a smooth and flat surface, which reduces the acid-base corrosive electrolyte from penetrating into the cracks generated by catalyst agglomeration to corrode the matrix material inside, thereby effectively improving the service life of the hydrogen evolution catalyst working in the acid-base corrosive liquid. In addition, the nanocrystalline ultrasonic compaction catalyst layer composed of ruthenium platinum metal and its oxides and the multi-catalyst layer connecting the ultrasonic compaction catalyst layer and the carrier together constitute the corrosion-resistant hydrogen evolution catalyst of this patent. The multi-catalyst layer connecting the ultrasonic compaction catalyst layer and the carrier adds the same elements as the carrier and precious metal components with hydrogen evolution catalytic effect, so that the two and the carrier form a stable and firm enamel solid solution, while increasing the active components of the hydrogen evolution catalyst, the coating and the interface bonding force between the coating and the substrate can be strengthened, thereby effectively extending the service life of the hydrogen evolution catalyst.

[0084] Therefore, the electrode for hydrogen evolution and the preparation method thereof, as well as the hydrogen evolution reaction device of the present invention have a large contact area with the electrolyte, which allows the hydrogen evolution reaction to occur rapidly, allowing hydrogen to be rapidly desorbed and desorbed on the smooth and dense catalyst surface, and has the characteristics of lower hydrogen evolution overpotential, longer application life, and stronger hydrogen evolution catalytic ability under harsh acid and alkaline conditions.
