Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of catalytic hydrogen production, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a composite material of nickel oxide nanowire - copper nitride supported on graphene and its application in catalytic hydrolysis of ammonia borane for hydrogen production. Background Art

[0002] As an efficient and clean secondary energy carrier, the large - scale production and safe storage and transportation of hydrogen energy are the core. Ammonia borane (NH 3 BH 3 ) is regarded as a highly potential chemical hydrogen storage material due to its high hydrogen storage density (19.6 wt%) and controllable hydrolysis characteristics under mild conditions. However, the hydrolysis reaction of ammonia borane (NH 3 BH 3 +2H 2 O→NH 4 BO 2 +3H 2 ↑) needs to be driven by an efficient catalyst. However, traditional noble metal - based catalysts (such as Pt, Ru) are limited by scarcity and cost problems and are difficult to meet the actual application requirements. Therefore, the development of transition metal - based catalysts with high activity, high stability and low cost has become a research hotspot in this field.

[0003] In recent years, nickel - based and copper - based catalysts have attracted much attention due to their catalytic potential for ammonia borane hydrolysis. However, single metal oxides (such as NiO) or nitrides (such as Cu 3 N) have problems such as insufficient exposure of active sites, low electron transfer efficiency and poor cycle stability. Research shows that by constructing a heterojunction interface, the electronic structure of catalytic materials can be effectively regulated. For example, the combination of nickel oxide (NiO) and copper nitride (Cu 3 N) can form a heterojunction, induce the redistribution of interface charges, optimize the adsorption / desorption energy barriers of reaction intermediates, and thus significantly improve the catalytic activity. In addition, the heterojunction structure can promote the kinetic processes of key steps (such as H 2 O molecule activation and B - N bond cleavage) in the hydrolysis reaction through a synergistic effect, further breaking through the performance bottleneck of single components.

[0004] The selection of the catalyst support is crucial for its stability and dispersion. Graphene is considered an ideal catalyst support due to its ultra - high specific surface area, excellent electrical conductivity and chemical stability. Compared with traditional carbon materials (such as activated carbon, carbon nanotubes), the two - dimensional layered structure of graphene can provide rich anchoring sites for metal nanoparticles, inhibit the migration and agglomeration of active components during the reaction through strong metal - support interaction (SMSI), and thus improve the cycle stability of the catalyst. In addition, the oxygen - containing functional groups on the surface of graphene can further promote the adsorption of reactants through chemical bonding, thereby promoting the reaction.

[0005] Although existing studies have explored the composite systems of metal oxides / nitrides and graphene, the co - design of NiO - Cu 3 N heterojunction and graphene has not been reported yet. In the prior art, non - noble metal catalysts still face problems such as easy inactivation of active sites, insufficient regulation of heterojunction interfaces, and weak binding force between carriers and active components.

[0006] Therefore, developing a method for preparing a nanowire nickel oxide - copper nitride supported graphene composite material, using the interfacial effect of nickel oxide - copper nitride to synergistically enhance the catalytic performance of ammonia borane hydrolysis for hydrogen production, and using the strong anchoring effect of the graphene carrier to inhibit the structural collapse of nanowires in the cyclic reaction, so as to achieve a double improvement in catalytic stability and activity, is the problem that this invention is committed to solving. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a preparation method for a nanowire nickel oxide - copper nitride supported graphene composite material. This invention has the advantages of simple synthesis method, mild conditions, and regular morphology of the obtained nickel oxide - copper nitride / graphene target product.

[0008] The inventors of this application found that compounding nickel oxide and copper nitride into a nickel oxide - copper nitride / graphene composite for catalytic reactions can produce a synergistic catalytic effect, enhancing the reaction activity and stability. Therefore, developing a method for preparing nickel oxide - copper nitride composites with a simple preparation process, low cost, and excellent product performance that can be applied to industrial production is the problem that this invention is committed to solving.

[0009] To solve the above - mentioned technical problems, this invention adopts the following technical solution: A preparation method for a nanosheet nickel oxide - copper nitride supported graphene composite material, comprising the following steps:

[0010] (1) Dissolve soluble copper salts and nickel salts in ultrapure water according to a ratio to prepare a mixed salt solution A;

[0011] (2) Ultrasonically disperse the carrier graphene in ultrapure water;

[0012] (3) Slowly drop the graphene dispersion into solution A under magnetic stirring to form solution B;

[0013] (4) Slowly drop an alkaline solution into solution B to form solution C; the alkaline solution is selected from one or more of urea, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, ammonia water, and hexamethylenetetramine;

[0014] (5) Transfer solution C to a reaction kettle, react at 100 - 180 °C for 6 - 12 h, filter and wash, collect the product, and dry it.

[0015] (6) Place the sample in a muffle furnace and calcine it at 350 °C for 2 h. After the reaction is completed, collect the sample;

[0016] (7) Using ammonia gas as the ammonia source, place the sample in step (6) upstream of the tubular furnace and calcine it for 0.5 - 5 h under an ammonia atmosphere at 300 - 400 °C for partial nitridation treatment.

[0017] Preferably, the soluble copper salt in step (1) is selected from one or more of copper acetate monohydrate, copper sulfate pentahydrate, copper nitrate hexahydrate, and copper chloride dihydrate, and the soluble nickel salt is selected from one or more of nickel acetate tetrahydrate, nickel sulfate hexahydrate, nickel nitrate hexahydrate, and nickel chloride hexahydrate.

[0018] Preferably, the soluble copper salt and nickel salt in step (1) are dissolved in ultrapure water in any ratio between 1:10 and 10:1.

[0019] Preferably, the amount of the base added in step (4) is 10 - 50 times the amount of the metal ions in terms of the amount of substance.

[0020] The present invention also discloses the application of the nickel oxide - copper nitride composite material prepared by the above method in catalyzing the hydrolysis of ammonia borane to produce hydrogen.

[0021] The "nanowire nickel oxide - copper nitride supported graphene composite material" proposed by the present invention breaks through the technical bottleneck through the following innovative points: (1) Utilize the electron synergy effect of the NiO - Cu 3 N heterojunction to optimize the intrinsic catalytic activity of the active sites; (2) The nanowire structure provides a high specific surface area and abundant exposed active sites; (3) The graphene support inhibits the structural collapse of the nanowires in the cyclic reaction through strong anchoring, achieving a double improvement in catalytic stability and activity. This design provides a new idea for the development of highly efficient and stable catalysts for the hydrolysis of ammonia borane to produce hydrogen.

[0022] In summary, the preparation method of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] 1. By precisely adjusting the nitridation time and the feeding amounts of nickel salt and copper salt, nickel oxide - copper nitride supported graphene composite catalysts with different ratios can be obtained.

[0024] 2. The nickel oxide - copper nitride supported graphene composite material prepared by the present invention has obvious electron synergy effect and metal - support interaction, and shows a synergistic effect in catalyzing the hydrolysis of ammonia borane to produce hydrogen.

The whole preparation process is simple, environmentally friendly, has very good experimental reproducibility, low cost, and is easy for industrial production, and can produce the nickel oxide - copper nitride supported graphene composite material on a large scale.
