Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of catalysis technology, and specifically relates to a supported metal catalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction, its synthesis method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Hydrogen energy is a widely available, safe, efficient, and renewable green and low-carbon new energy source with high energy density and conversion efficiency, and has become a key pathway for global energy transition. Electrolysis of water to produce hydrogen is one of the important methods for achieving hydrogen production from renewable energy sources, and it has broad development prospects. To further develop low-cost hydrogen production processes, electrolysis catalysts are one of the most important components. Although precious metals such as palladium, platinum, ruthenium, and rhodium have shown good catalytic performance, their high price and low yield limit their large-scale application. Transition metals, with their low price and good performance, have become very promising electrocatalytic materials.

CN117248219A reports a nickel-iron-cerium ternary catalyst, which is prepared by first activating a nickel substrate material in a hydrogen atmosphere at high temperature and then impregnating it in an iron and cerium precursor solution.

[0092] Electrocatalytic reactions were performed using a three-electrode system. A glassy carbon electrode coated with a catalyst layer was used as the working electrode, an Hg / HgO electrode as the reference electrode, and a carbon rod as the counter electrode. A 1M KOH solution was used as the electrolyte, and a CHI 660E electrochemical workstation was used as the power source. Activity was evaluated using linear sweep voltammetry at a scan rate of 5 mV / s. Stability was tested using a galvanostatic method at a current density of 10 mA / cm². 2 The corresponding electric potential at that time is the voltage condition. When catalyst S2 is used as the catalyst, the catalyst reaches 10 mA·cm⁻¹. -2 The corresponding overpotential is 377mV.
