Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of electrocatalytic material preparation technology, specifically to a method for preparing and applying a high-curvature carbon nanotube onion-supported diatomic catalyst. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing global demand for clean energy, the application of electrocatalytic materials in energy conversion and storage has attracted much attention. Especially in the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), efficient and stable electrocatalysts are crucial for improving the performance of hydrogen fuel cells and metal-air batteries. However, existing electrocatalytic materials still have significant shortcomings in terms of active site utilization efficiency, long-term stability, and preparation cost, limiting their large-scale commercial application.
[0003] A search revealed a patent, CN113174608B, which discloses a dual-doped porous cobalt phosphide nanosheet electrocatalytic material and its preparation method, published on October 25, 2022. This patent improves the specific surface area and conductivity of cobalt phosphide nanosheets by doping them with Cr and Fe bimetals, exhibiting good electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution and oxygen evolution performance. However, in this technical solution, the distribution of metal atoms mainly depends on the doping process, making atomic-level precise control difficult and potentially leading to uneven distribution of active sites, affecting catalytic efficiency. Furthermore, the structural stability of the cobalt phosphide substrate may be challenged at high current densities, especially during long-term operation, where metal atom migration or aggregation can easily occur, leading to catalyst deactivation.
[0004] A search revealed a non-metallic electrocatalytic material, its preparation method, and its applications, published on August 18, 2023, with publication number CN115011972B. This patent describes the preparation of a non-metallic electrocatalytic material with good conductivity and bifunctional catalytic activity by combining graphene oxide with black phosphorus nanosheets. However, in this technical solution, the surface defect types of graphene oxide as a support are relatively homogeneous, making it difficult to achieve strong anchoring of active sites. This may lead to the migration or leaching of metal atoms in the electrochemical environment, reducing the long-term stability of the catalyst. Furthermore, black phosphorus nanosheets exhibit poor chemical stability in humid environments, which may further limit their durability in practical applications.
[0005] The aforementioned problems indicate that existing electrocatalytic materials still have shortcomings in terms of precise anchoring of active sites, long-term stability, and optimized design of support materials. In particular, regarding the preparation and application of diatomic catalysts supported on high-curvature carbon substrates, current technologies have not fully exploited the unique structural advantages of high-curvature carbon materials, nor have they effectively solved the stability problem of diatomic sites under harsh electrochemical environments. Therefore, this invention aims to provide a method for preparing and applying diatomic catalysts supported on high-curvature carbon nanotubes. By fully utilizing the abundant topological defects and electronic properties of high-curvature carbon materials, precise and stable anchoring of diatomic sites can be achieved, thereby significantly improving the ORR activity, selectivity, and long-term stability of the catalyst, meeting the needs of next-generation high-performance electrocatalysts.
