Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of advanced inorganic nanomaterials, and specifically relates to metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials, a method for manufacturing the same, and their use.
Background Art
[0002] With the consumption of conventional fossil energy and the worsening of environmental pollution problems caused by its combustion, carbon dioxide emissions are increasing, and the goals of "carbon peak out" and "carbon neutral" still face severe challenges. Therefore, the development of new sustainable clean energy sources to replace fossil fuels has become an urgent task. Currently, solar energy, wind energy, bioenergy, tidal energy, and hydrogen energy are relatively mature new alternative energy sources. Among them, hydrogen energy has attracted attention as a clean energy source with high energy density, cleanliness, and no pollution. In addition, there are many hydrogen energy sources, such as hydrogen production from fossil fuels, hydrogen production by carbon capture, and hydrogen production by water electrolysis. Among the numerous production processes, hydrogen production by water electrolysis has a relatively simple process and relatively mature technology. Hydrogen production by water electrolysis can be divided into alkaline water electrolysis hydrogen production technology (ALK), solid oxide electrolysis cell hydrogen production technology (SOEC), and proton exchange membrane water electrolysis technology (PEM). Compared with ALK technology, PEM hydrogen production has a high operating current density (exceeding 1 A / cm 2 ), high overall efficiency (74% - 87%), high hydrogen volume fraction (>99.99%), high gas generation pressure (3 - 4 MPa), fast dynamic response speed, and can also cope with the fluctuations of renewable energy power generation. Therefore, it is considered the most promising water electrolysis hydrogen production technology for development.
[0003] However, due to the local superacidity and oxidizing properties of the anode of PEM electrolyzers, common transition metal catalysts such as iron, cobalt, and nickel dissolve rapidly and it is difficult to function stably. Iridium oxide is currently the catalyst commercially used for PEM because of its extremely high stability in acidic oxygen evolution. However, its price is soaring, and due to the scarcity of resources, it is becoming difficult to utilize it on a large scale to meet future hydrogen energy demands. With the successful production of domestic proton exchange membranes, in the future, the cost of the membrane will be significantly reduced, and finding an alternative acidic oxygen evolution catalyst with good activity and stability will be the key to reducing the cost of pure water electrolysis.
[0004] The acidic oxygen evolution activity of ruthenium oxide is very high, but the potential of 1.33 V (compared with the standard hydrogen electrode) when RuO 4 is oxidized is within the operating potential of the oxygen evolution reaction. Therefore, the oxidation of ruthenium is involved in the oxygen evolution process, resulting in the formation of expensive ruthenium oxide, which dissolves in the electrolyte and ultimately leads to the loss of active sites and the degradation of the catalytic properties of the oxygen evolution reaction. However, due to its low price, designing a ruthenium-based oxygen evolution catalyst with high activity and stability is very promising but difficult.
[0005] In recent years, scientific researchers have made great efforts to improve the oxygen evolution activity and stability of ruthenium-based catalysts. For example, by doping transition metals such as iron, cobalt, nickel, and chromium into ruthenium oxide, defects are introduced into ruthenium oxide, the morphology of ruthenium oxide is adjusted and controlled, or ruthenium oxide is supported on a stable substrate. Ultimately, the electronic structure of ruthenium oxide changes, the adsorption to oxygen-containing intermediates is improved, and the electrode catalytic properties and stability of oxygen evolution are further enhanced. The problems of low activity and poor stability have not yet been solved.
[0006] To solve the above problems, the present invention is proposed.

[0062] The above technical solutions may be freely combined if there is no contradiction.
[0063] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects.
[0064] The acid-insoluble metal oxide-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention has the following advantages.
[0065] (1) The acid-insoluble metal oxide-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention is reported for the first time as an acid-insoluble metal doped into the interior of ruthenium oxide crystals to replace part of the position of ruthenium oxide in the lattice. The acid-insoluble metal doping does not destroy the inherent structure of ruthenium oxide and completely maintains the crystal structure of rutile-phase ruthenium oxide. In addition, the acid-insoluble metal is highly uniformly dispersed in the material, and no heterogeneous phase of the oxide of the acid-insoluble metal is generated. Therefore, ruthenium at the active site is sufficiently adjusted and controlled and maintains a stable state during the oxygen evolution reaction.
[0066] (2) The acid-insoluble metal oxide-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention has uniform particle size, is porous, and has a simple synthesis method. The acid-insoluble metal oxide-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial further reduces the usage amount of precious metal ruthenium. Due to the doping of the acid-insoluble metal, the covalent bond between ruthenium and oxygen is weakened by the introduction of the acid-insoluble metal, and ruthenium at the active site becomes a lower valence number. When the obtained acid-insoluble metal-doped ruthenium oxide is used as an oxygen evolution anode material in the acidic electrolysis of water, it has high activity and stability. In particular, in the material of the present invention, the advantages of the acid-insoluble metal element are as follows. 1. It does not dissolve in the acidic electrolyte and maintains the stability of the material. 2. The introduction of the acid-insoluble metal element weakens the covalent bond between ruthenium and oxygen. The reasons are as follows: (1) The acid-insoluble metal element and its oxide have high acid stability and antioxidant properties, can stably adjust and control the active site during oxygen evolution, and can improve the stability of ruthenium oxide. (2) According to the adsorption theory, since the acid-insoluble metal has weak adsorption to the oxygen-containing intermediate, when doped into the lattice of ruthenium oxide, it improves the adsorption of the oxygen-containing intermediate by the ruthenium site, ultimately leading to an improvement in the activity of the ruthenium site. On the other hand, existing elements of iron, cobalt, nickel, and chromium, which are often doped with ruthenium oxide, do not have the above effects. Doping of iron, cobalt, nickel, and chromium usually does not conform to tetravalent ruthenium oxide due to its low valence, resulting in oxygen defects. Eventually, the oxygen generation reaction mechanism changes to a lattice oxygen oxidation mechanism. As a result, the oxygen generation reaction activity is improved, but due to the instability of the oxygen defects, the stability of the catalyst cannot be maintained.
[0067] (3) Regarding the activity, when the acid-insoluble metal oxide-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention is used as an oxygen generation anode material in the acidic electrolysis of water, the specific activity is high when the doping amount of the acid-insoluble metal is 1 at% to 50 at% (at% is the total molar fraction of the metal based on the total molar mass of the metal in the acid-insoluble metal oxide-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial). Specifically, from FIG. 7, the acid-insoluble metal oxide-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials obtained in Example 1 and Example 2 have good oxygen generation characteristics in water electrolysis, and the overpotentials are 196 mV and 219 mV at a current density of 10 mA / cm 2 which are lower than the overpotential of 320 mV of commercially available ruthenium dioxide.
[0068] (4) Regarding the stability, when the acid-insoluble metal oxide-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention is used as an oxygen generation anode material in the acidic electrolysis of water, the constant current polarization curve can be stably maintained for 360 h even under the operating conditions of a high current density of 100 and 200 mA cm -2 . From this, it was confirmed that the acid-insoluble metal oxide-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is excellent in the stability of the acidic oxygen generation reaction.
[0069] (5) The manufacturing method of the present invention has three methods: the sol-gel method, the solvothermal method, and the ball milling method. The sol-gel method is to perform synthesis by combining a simple sol-gel reaction and air calcination conditions. This method is simple, low-cost, has good reproducibility, is environmentally friendly, enables scale-up of production, and is suitable for industrialization. The manufacturing method described in the present invention is simple and provides a new idea for synthesizing a highly active electrode material.
[0070] (6) In particular, in the sol-gel method of the present invention, a multidentate ligand polymer is used to form a complex with metal cations. The multidentate ligand of the polymer helps to uniformly disperse multiple metals in the final product compared to low-molecular complexes, and can improve the activity and stability of the material.
[0071] (7) In the solvothermal method of the present invention, since it is necessary to use a weak alkali source such as urea or aqueous ammonia as the alkali source, it is possible to reduce the slow release of hydroxide ions by the weak alkali source at high temperature, thereby slowly coprecipitating ruthenium and acid-insoluble metal ions and preventing the separation of metal phases caused by excessive changes in the pH value in the hydrothermal process.
[0072] The transition metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention has the following advantages.
[0073] (1) In the transition metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention, the transition metal is doped inside the ruthenium oxide crystal, replacing a part of the positions of ruthenium oxide in the lattice without destroying the inherent structure of ruthenium oxide, that is, completely maintaining the crystal structure of the rutile-phase ruthenium oxide. In addition, the transition metal is highly uniformly dispersed in the material, and no oxide impurity phase is generated. Therefore, ruthenium at the active site is sufficiently adjusted and controlled, and maintains a stable state during the oxygen evolution reaction.
[0074] (2) The transition metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention has uniform particle sizes and a simple synthesis method. The transition metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial further reduces the usage amount of precious metal ruthenium. After the transition metal is doped, the introduction of the transition metal weakens the covalent bond of Ru-O, and ruthenium at the active site becomes a lower valence number. When the transition metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is used as an oxygen evolution anode material in the acidic electrolysis of water, it has high activity and stability. In particular, in the material of the present invention, the advantages of the transition metal element are as follows. 1. During the stability test of the acidic electrolyte, the catalyst does not dissolve, and its constant current polarization curve can be stably maintained for a long time even under the operating conditions of high current density. 2. The introduction of transition metals such as manganese, chromium, and tin weakens the covalent bond of the Ru-O bond. The reasons are as follows: (1) Regarding stability, for transition metal elements such as manganese, chromium, and tin, these transition metals exist in a high-temperature and high-pressure liquid during production, or their most expensive compounds are used as transition metal sources, so they are in a fully oxidized liquid environment, and their oxides all have strong acid stability. Therefore, they play a role in stably adjusting and controlling the ruthenium active site during the acidic oxygen evolution process, improving the stability of ruthenium oxide. (2) Regarding activity, by doping transition metals such as manganese, chromium, and tin into ruthenium oxide, the center of the d band of the ruthenium active site is adjusted, the state of the back-bonding surface adsorbate decreases, the free energy of the rate-determining step decreases, and finally the intrinsic activity of ruthenium oxide is improved. Transition metals with low valences and low acid stability such as iron, cobalt, and nickel do not have the above effects. This is usually because their low valences do not match tetravalent ruthenium oxide, causing oxygen defects and finally changing the oxygen generation reaction mechanism to a lattice oxygen oxidation mechanism. Although it improves the activity of the catalyst in the acidic oxygen generation reaction, the stability of the catalyst cannot be maintained due to oxygen defects.
[0075] (3) When the transition metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention is used as an oxygen evolution anode material in the acidic electrolysis of water, when the doping amount of the transition metal is 1 at% to 50 at% (at% is the metal molar fraction based on the total molar fraction of the metal in the transition metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial), the intrinsic activity is very high. Specifically, from FIGS. 10, 18, 25, 32, and 33, the transition metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials obtained in Examples 1 to 18 have good oxygen evolution characteristics in water electrolysis, and the overvoltage at a current density of 10 mA / cm 2 is lower than the overvoltage of 320 mV of commercially available ruthenium dioxide.
[0076] (4) When the transition metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention is used as an oxygen evolution anode material in the acidic electrolysis of water, even under the operating conditions of a high current density of 200 mA cm -2 , the constant current polarization curve can be stably maintained for 80 to 100 h. From this, it was confirmed that the transition metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is excellent in the stability of the acidic oxygen evolution reaction.
[0077] (5) The production method of the present invention is a hydrothermal method. The hydrothermal method is to perform synthesis by combining a simple reaction in a sealed reactor and air calcination conditions. This method is simple, low-cost, has good reproducibility, the obtained powder has high purity, good dispersibility, is useful for environmental purification, and the production scale-up is also possible. The production method described in the present invention provides a new idea for synthesizing a highly active electrode material.
[0078] (6) In particular, in the hydrothermal method of the present invention, a polymer having a multidentate ligand is used to form a complex with a metal cation. When a polymer having a multidentate ligand is added, the possibility of aggregation of fine particles is avoided, and it contributes to the uniform dispersion of transition metals such as doped manganese, chromium, and tin in the rutile lattice of ruthenium oxide, thereby improving the activity and stability of the material.

[0083] The method for manufacturing the niobium - doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial includes the following steps. (1) An ethanol solution of ruthenium chloride and an ethanol solution of niobium chloride were put into a glass reactor, and the concentration of ruthenium chloride in the glass reactor was controlled to be 0.1 mol / L, and the concentration of niobium chloride was controlled to be 0.025 mol / L. The glass reactor was capped and sealed to prevent the hydrolysis of the precursor. The sealed glass reactor was dispersed for 3 h under ultrasonic treatment conditions to obtain a metal ethanol solution of uniform color. Next, polyvinylpyrrolidone powder (the concentration of polyvinylpyrrolidone as the ligand was controlled to be 40 g / L) was added to the solution, and ultrasonic treatment was carried out for 1 h while sealed to obtain a mixed solution of uniform color. Then, the glass reactor was placed in a constant - temperature oil - bath pan and kept warm at 70 °C for 12 h. Next, the cap was removed and the solvent was evaporated to obtain a metal powder precursor of uniform color. (2) After putting the metal powder precursor obtained in step (1) into a boat, the boat containing the metal powder precursor was placed in a muffle furnace. The heating rate was set at 10 °C / min, heated to 400 °C, held for 5 h, then naturally cooled to obtain a black powder sample, which was washed multiple times with deionized water and ethanol and dried to obtain the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial with a niobium doping amount of 20%.

That is, in the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial, niobium is doped into the interior of the ruthenium oxide crystal and replaces a part of the positions of ruthenium in the lattice. Therefore, from Fig. 2, the molecular formula of the material is Nb x Ru 1-x O 2 was confirmed.

The molybdenum-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial produced in Example 16 has an overvoltage of 10 mA / cm 2 The overvoltage at [specific condition] is 194 mV (curve A in Fig. 31). The tantalum-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial produced in Example 17 has an overvoltage of 10 mA / cm 2 The overvoltage at [specific condition] is 209 mV (curve E in Fig. 31). It was found that all of these are lower than the overvoltage of 320 mV of commercially available ruthenium dioxide (curve B in Fig. 26). From this, it was confirmed that the metal-doped ruthenium oxides produced in Examples 12 to 17 have more excellent oxygen evolution reaction activity.

From Fig. 32, it was found that when maintained at a current density of 100 mA / cm 2 for 60 hours, the current of the metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials obtained in Examples 12 to 17 hardly decays. From this, it became clear that the above metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials have very high stability at high current densities when used as oxygen evolution reaction anode materials.
[0114] Fig. 33 is the constant current test curve at a current density of 100 mA / cm of commercially available ruthenium dioxide, and it decayed by more than 500 mV after a 1-hour test. 2
[0115] From FIGS. 19 to 34, it was shown that the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention has excellent activity and stability in oxygen evolution in water electrolysis, and is superior to commercially available ruthenium dioxide materials in all cases.
[0116] From the above, it was fully confirmed that niobium can be doped into the ruthenium oxide lattice by a simple method to obtain a niobium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial. The niobium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial has a rough nanostructure on the surface and excellent electrochemically oxygen evolution reaction characteristics. Comparative Example 1
[0117] In order to improve the stability of the acid-insoluble metal-doped catalyst, referring to the production method of Example 1, niobium chloride was changed to iron chloride to produce an iron-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial. The iron-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial was tested as an oxygen evolution reaction anode material, and the polarization curve and stability curve obtained by the test are shown in FIGS. 34 and 35. As shown in FIG. 34, curve A is the polarization curve of the oxygen evolution reaction of the iron-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 1, and curve B is the polarization curve of the oxygen evolution reaction of the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 1. From FIG. 34, at 10 mA / cm 2 it was found that the overpotential of niobium-doped ruthenium oxide is 196 mV, while that of iron-doped ruthenium oxide is 320 mV. Therefore, niobium-doped ruthenium oxide had higher oxygen evolution reaction activity. FIG. 35 is the stability curve of iron-doped ruthenium oxide obtained in Comparative Example 1 at a current density of 100 mA / cm 2 From FIG. 35, after 1 hour, the stability curve showed a decay of more than 300 mV, indicating that the stability of the iron-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is poor. Therefore, the iron-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of Comparative Example 1 has a large difference in stability compared with the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide obtained in Example 1, and the excellent stability of the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide oxygen evolution reaction was further confirmed. Example 18-3 Metal-Doped Ruthenium Oxide
[0118] Referring to the method of Example 1, the niobium chloride ethanol solution was changed to an ethanol solution of molybdenum chloride, titanium chloride, and niobium chloride. In a glass reactor, the concentration of ruthenium chloride ethanol solution was 1 mol / L, and the total solubility of molybdenum chloride, titanium chloride, and niobium chloride solutions was controlled to 0.25 mol / L (specifically, molybdenum chloride, titanium chloride, and niobium chloride were all 0.083 mol). As the roasting conditions of the muffle furnace, the heating rate was 10 °C / min, the heat preservation temperature was 400 °C, and the heat preservation time was 5 hours. The doping amount of molybdenum in the molybdenum-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is 20%. The calculation formula for the doping amount of molybdenum is (N_molybdenum + N_titanium + N_niobium) / (N_molybdenum + N_titanium + N_niobium + N_ruthenium)=0.25 / 1.25 = 20%. The XRD pattern of the obtained three-metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is shown in Figure 36. From Figure 36, it was found that three elements of molybdenum, titanium, and niobium were successfully doped into the lattice of ruthenium oxide, for example. That is, molybdenum, titanium, and niobium in the molybdenum-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial are doped into the interior of the ruthenium oxide lattice, replacing a part of the position of ruthenium in the lattice. Therefore, from Figure 36, the molecular formula of the material is (TiNbMo) x Ru 1-x O 2 It was confirmed that it is. Example 19 - Five-metal-doped ruthenium oxide
[0119] (1) An aqueous solution of ruthenium chloride, zirconium chloride, niobium chloride, titanium chloride, molybdenum chloride, and tungsten chloride was placed in a 40 ml hydrothermal treatment kettle, and ultrasonic treatment was performed for more than 15 minutes in a glass reactor until all the precursors were dissolved. The concentration of ruthenium chloride was 1 mol / L, and the total concentration of zirconium chloride, niobium chloride, titanium chloride, molybdenum chloride, and tungsten chloride was 0.25 mol / L (specifically, 0.05 mol of each of zirconium chloride, niobium chloride, titanium chloride, molybdenum chloride, and tungsten chloride). 0.2 g of aqueous ammonia was added, the hydrothermal treatment kettle was placed in a constant temperature air blast oven at 200 °C, kept warm for 16 hours, the hydrothermal treatment kettle was taken out, and after natural cooling to room temperature, the precipitate formed by the reaction was taken out, centrifuged with deionized water and washed several times, and then placed in an oven at 80 °C and baked. (2) The above baked powder sample was placed in a boat, the boat was placed in a muffle furnace, the heating rate was set at 10 °C / min, heated to 600 °C, kept warm for 8 h, then naturally cooled, and the zirconium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial with a metal doping amount of 20% was obtained as a black powder sample. The calculation formula for the zirconium doping amount is (Nzirconium + Nniobium + Ntitanium + Nmolybdenum + Ntungsten) / (Nzirconium + Nniobium + Ntitanium + Nmolybdenum + Ntungsten + Nruthenium)=0.25 / 1.25 = 20%. The XRD pattern of the obtained five-metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is shown in Fig. 37. From Fig. 37, it was found that the five elements were successfully doped into the lattice of ruthenium oxide, for example. That is, the five metals in the five-metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial are doped into the interior of the ruthenium oxide lattice, replacing a part of the position of ruthenium in the lattice. Therefore, from Fig. 37, it was confirmed that the molecular formula of the material is (NbZrTiMoW) x Ru 1-x O 2 It was confirmed that it is. Example 20 - Seven-metal-doped ruthenium oxide
[0120] Ruthenium oxide, titanium oxide, niobium oxide, tantalum oxide, zirconium oxide, hafnium oxide, molybdenum oxide, and tungsten oxide were placed in a 40 ml ball milling tank and uniformly mixed. The ruthenium oxide was 8 mol, and the total of titanium oxide, niobium oxide, tantalum oxide, zirconium oxide, hafnium oxide, molybdenum oxide, and tungsten oxide was 2 mol (specifically, each of titanium oxide, niobium oxide, tantalum oxide, zirconium oxide, hafnium oxide, molybdenum oxide, and tungsten oxide was 0.0355 mol). Ball milling was performed twice for 6 hours each. The uniformly ball-milled precursor powder sample was placed in a boat, and the boat was placed in a muffle furnace. The heating rate was set at 5 - 10 °C / min, heated to 800 °C, held for 6 h, and then naturally cooled to obtain the tungsten-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial with a tungsten doping amount of 20% as a black powder sample. The calculation formula for the tungsten doping amount is (N zirconium + N niobium + N titanium + N molybdenum + N tungsten + N hafnium + N tantalum) / (N zirconium + N niobium + N titanium + N molybdenum + N tungsten + N hafnium + N tantalum + N ruthenium) = 2 / 10 = 20%. The XRD of the obtained 7-metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is shown in Fig. 38. From Fig. 38, it was found that the crystal structure of ruthenium oxide was maintained as its crystal structure. (TiHfZrNbTaWMo) x Ru 1-x O 2 is represented as. For the production of other ruthenium oxide nanomaterials doped with 2, 4, or 6 kinds of metals, Examples 18, 19, or 20 can be referred to. Application Example 5

From Fig. 39, the 3-metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial produced in Example 18 has a current density of 10 mA / cm 2The overvoltage at [value] is 242 mV (curve A in Fig. 39). The zirconium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial produced in Example 19 has an overvoltage of 231 mV (curve B in Fig. 39) at 10 mA / cm 2 in the oxygen evolution reaction. The hafnium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial produced in Example 20 has an overvoltage of 235 mV (curve C in Fig. 39) at 10 mA / cm 2 in the oxygen evolution reaction. It was found that all of these are lower than the overvoltage of 320 mV (curve D in Fig. 39) of commercially available ruthenium dioxide. From this, it was confirmed that the metal-doped ruthenium oxides produced in Examples 18 to 20 have more excellent oxygen evolution reaction activity. Application Example 6
[0122] Fig. 40 is the stability curve at a current density of 100 mA / cm for the metal-doped ruthenium oxide materials obtained in Examples 18 to 20.

From Fig. 40, it was found that when held at a current density of 100 mA / cm 2 for 50 hours, the current of the metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials obtained in Examples 18 to 20 hardly decays. From this, it became clear that the above metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials have very high stability at high current densities when used as oxygen evolution reaction anode materials. 2 Comparative Example 2
[0123] In order to improve the action of the polymer multidentate ligand in the synthesis of the acid-insoluble metal oxide-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial, a niobium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial was produced in the same manner as the production method of Example 1 except that vinylpyrrolidone was changed to citric acid. The XRD pattern of the obtained niobium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is shown in Fig. 41. From FIG. 41, it was found that niobium was successfully doped into the lattice of ruthenium oxide, for example. That is, niobium in the molybdenum-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is doped inside the ruthenium oxide lattice, replacing a part of the position of ruthenium in the lattice. Therefore, from FIG. 41, the molecular formula of the material is (TiNbMo) x Ru 1-x O 2 was confirmed to be the case. Using the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial produced in Comparative Example 2 as an oxygen evolution reaction anode material, a test was conducted in a 0.5 mol / L sulfuric acid solution, and the polarization curve and stability curve obtained from the test are shown in FIGS. 42 and 43. As shown in FIG. 42, curve A is the polarization curve of the oxygen evolution reaction of the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 2, and curve B is the polarization curve of the oxygen evolution reaction of the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 1. From FIG. 42, at 10 mA / cm 2 , it was found that the overpotential of the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide obtained in Example 1 was 196 mV, while the overpotential of the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide obtained in Comparative Example 2 was 228 mV. Therefore, the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide obtained with the polymer multi-dentate ligand had higher oxygen evolution reaction activity. FIG. 43 is the stability curve of the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide obtained in Comparative Example 2 at a current density of 100 mA / cm 2 . From FIG. 43, it was found that after 80 hours, a decay of 100 mV or more was observed in the stability curve. In FIG. 43, compared with FIG. 21, it was confirmed that the stability of the oxygen evolution reaction of the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained using citric acid as a ligand was inferior to that of the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained using polyvinylpyrrolidone. Therefore, the difference in stability between the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of Comparative Example 2 and the niobium-doped ruthenium oxide obtained in Example 1 was significant. It was further confirmed that the stability of the oxygen evolution reaction of the acid-insoluble metal oxide-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial produced with the polymer multi-dentate ligand was very excellent. In each of the following experiments, the oxygen evolution activity of the transition metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention in water electrolysis was tested by a three-electrode system, and a polarization curve was obtained. In the three-electrode system, a calomel electrode was used as the reference electrode, a platinum sheet electrode was used as the counter electrode, and the transition metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in the examples was used as the working electrode. When it was necessary to make a comparison, the following specific other materials were used as the working electrode for comparison. In each of the following experiments, the stability of oxygen evolution of the transition metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention in water electrolysis was tested by a two-electrode system, and a stability curve was obtained. In the two-electrode system, a platinum sheet electrode was used as the cathode, and the transition metal-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in the examples was used as the anode. When it was necessary to make a comparison, the following specific other materials were used as the working electrode for comparison. Example 21 - Hydrothermal treatment method
[0124] The method for manufacturing the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial includes the following steps. (1) An aqueous solution of ruthenium chloride was placed in a beaker, and then a potassium permanganate solution and a manganese chloride tetrahydrate solution that had been ultrasonically treated uniformly were added in sequence so that divalent manganese ions were present in a sufficiently oxidized liquid environment. When the addition of all the reaction solutions was completed, it was stirred sufficiently for 0.5 h. The concentration of ruthenium chloride in the beaker was controlled to 0.4 mol / L, and the concentration of manganese chloride was controlled to 0.1 mol / L. Next, polyvinylpyrrolidone powder was added to the solution, and the concentration of polyvinylpyrrolidone in the beaker was controlled to 50 g / L, and it was stirred for another 1 h to obtain a uniformly colored manganese-ruthenium oxide solution. Next, the reaction solution in the beaker was transferred to a hydrothermal treatment autoclave, placed in a forced-air oven, and kept at 180 °C for 10 h. After taking out the hydrothermal treatment autoclave and naturally cooling it to room temperature, the reaction solution in the autoclave was centrifuged alternately with deionized water and absolute ethanol, washed multiple times, and then placed in an oven at 80 °C to bake to obtain a uniformly colored metal powder precursor. (2) Put the metal powder precursor obtained in step (1) into a boat, and then put the boat containing the metal powder precursor into a muffle furnace. Set the heating rate to 10 °C / min, heat it up to 400 °C, keep it at this temperature for 3 h, then cool it naturally to obtain the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial with a manganese doping amount of 20%. The calculation formula for the manganese doping amount is N manganese / (N manganese + N ruthenium) = 0.1 / 0.5 = 20%. Characterization of Manganese-Doped Ruthenium Oxide Nanomaterials The scanning electron microscope image of the obtained manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is shown in Figure 44, and its XRD spectrum is shown in Figure 45. From Figure 44, it can be seen that the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is spherical particles with a size of 70 - 200 nm, and its surface is rough. The XRD spectrum of the obtained manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is shown in Figure 45. From Figure 45, it can be seen that the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial shows characteristic peaks of rutile-phase ruthenium oxide. Compared with the standard card of rutile-phase ruthenium oxide, the diffraction peaks of manganese-doped ruthenium oxide shift to a larger angle, and no diffraction peaks of manganese oxide are found. This indicates that the manganese element is well doped into the crystal of ruthenium oxide, for example, and no phase separation occurs. That is, the manganese in the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is doped into the interior of the ruthenium oxide crystal and replaces part of the positions of ruthenium in the lattice. Therefore, from Figure 45, the molecular formula of the material is Mn x Ru 1-x O 2 It was confirmed that it is. The element distribution diagram of the obtained manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is shown in Figure 46. From Figure 46, it can be seen that the elements of the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial are uniformly distributed. This confirms that manganese is uniformly dispersed in the interior of the ruthenium oxide crystal. Therefore, both manganese and ruthenium in the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial are uniformly dispersed. Example 22 - Hydrothermal Treatment Method

In this comparative example, the following experiment was conducted using ammonium citrate as the ligand. Referring to the manufacturing method of Example 21, compared with Example 21, ammonium citrate was used instead of polyvinylpyrrolidone with multiple coordination sites, that is, before transferring the reaction solution to the hydrothermal treatment kettle, ammonium citrate was added thereto, and the concentration of ammonium citrate was controlled at 50 g / L. Next, ammonia water was added to adjust the pH to neutral.

(1) Put an aqueous solution of ruthenium chloride into a beaker, and then sequentially add a potassium dichromate solution and a chromium chloride solution that have been uniformly ultrasonicated so that trivalent chromium ions exist in a sufficiently oxidized liquid environment. After the addition of all the reaction solutions was completed, it was sufficiently stirred for 0.5 h. The concentration of ruthenium chloride in the beaker was controlled to be 0.4 mol / L, and the concentration of chromium chloride was controlled to be 0.1 mol / L. Next, polyvinylpyrrolidone powder was added to the solution, and the concentration of polyvinylpyrrolidone in the beaker was controlled to be 50 g / L, and it was further stirred for 1 h to obtain a uniformly colored chromium-ruthenium oxide solution. Next, transfer the reaction solution in the beaker to a hydrothermal treatment kettle, put it into a forced-air oven, and keep it at 180 °C for 10 h.

The calculation formula for the chromium doping amount is N chromium / (N chromium + N ruthenium) = 0.1 / 0.5 = 20%. Characteristic evaluation of the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial The scanning electron microscope image of the obtained chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is shown in Figure 47, and its XRD spectrum is shown in Figure 48. From Figure 47, it was found that the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is spherical particles with a size of 70 - 200 nm and a rough surface. The XRD spectrum of the obtained chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is shown in Figure 48. From Figure 48, the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial shows characteristic peaks of rutile-phase ruthenium oxide. Compared with the standard card of rutile-phase ruthenium oxide, it was found that the diffraction peaks of chromium-doped ruthenium oxide shifted to a larger angle and there were no diffraction peaks of chromium oxide.

That is, in the said chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial, chromium is doped into the interior of the ruthenium oxide crystal and replaces part of the position of ruthenium in the lattice. Therefore, from Figure 48, the molecular formula of the material was confirmed to be Cr x Ru 1-x O 2 The element distribution diagram of the obtained chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is shown in Figure 49. From Figure 49, it was revealed that the elements of the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial are uniformly distributed.

Characterization of the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial The scanning electron microscope image of the obtained tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is shown in Fig. 50, and its XRD spectrum is shown in Fig. 51.

From Fig. 51, the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial shows characteristic peaks of rutile-phase ruthenium oxide. Compared with the standard card of rutile-phase ruthenium oxide, it was found that the diffraction peaks of tin-doped ruthenium oxide shifted to a larger angle and there were no diffraction peaks of tin oxide. From this, it was revealed that tin elements were successfully doped into the ruthenium oxide crystal without phase separation. That is, in the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial, tin is doped into the interior of the ruthenium oxide crystal, substituting part of the position of ruthenium in the lattice. Therefore, from Fig. 51, the molecular formula of the material is Sn x Ru 1-x O 2 It was confirmed that it is. The elemental distribution diagram of the obtained tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial is shown in Fig. 52. From Fig. 52, it was found that the elements of the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial are uniformly distributed. From this, it was confirmed that tin is uniformly dispersed inside the ruthenium oxide crystal. Therefore, both tin and ruthenium in the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial are uniformly dispersed. Comparative Example 7 - Hydrothermal treatment method

From Figures 57 and 58, when maintained at current densities of 100 and 200 mA / cm 2 for 24 hours and 100 hours respectively, it was found that the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 3 had a rapid decay of current at a high current density of 200 mA / cm 2 . From this, it was clarified that the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained by adding ammonium citrate was inferior in stability at high current density to the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 21 when used as the oxygen evolution reaction anode material. Therefore, in this application example, it was recognized that the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial formed by adding a multi-ligand polymer was significantly improved in both activity and stability compared to the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial formed by adding ammonium citrate as a ligand when used as the oxygen evolution reaction anode material.

[0156] Using a calomel electrode as the reference electrode, a platinum sheet electrode as the counter electrode, and the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials obtained in Example 21 and Comparative Example 4 and commercially available ruthenium dioxide as the working electrode, in a 3-electrode system, in a 0.5 mol / L H 2 SO 4 solution, the oxygen evolution characteristics of the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention in water electrolysis were tested, and the obtained polarization curves are shown in Fig. 59. Using the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials obtained in Example 21 and Comparative Example 4 or commercially available ruthenium dioxide as the anode and a platinum sheet electrode as the cathode, the stability of the oxygen evolution reaction in the water electrolysis of the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention was tested by a 2-electrode system. From Fig. 59, the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials obtained in Example 21 and Comparative Example 4 are excellent in oxygen evolution characteristics (curve B and curve A in Fig. 59) in water electrolysis, far superior to the commercially available ruthenium dioxide material (curve C in Fig. 59), and the overpotentials are 170 mV and 190 mV respectively at a current density of 10 mA / cm 2 It was found that both are lower than 320 mV of commercially available ruthenium dioxide. The manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 21 is more active than the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 4 when used as the electrode catalyst of the oxygen evolution reaction anode material. Fig. 60 is the stability curve at a current density of 50 mA / cm 2 SO 4 in a solution when the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide material obtained in Comparative Example 4 of the present invention is used as the oxygen evolution anode material. From Fig. 60, at 50 mA / cm 2 current density 2When maintained at a current density for half an hour, a rapid decay was observed within 400 seconds in the stability curve of the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 4. That is, it was found that the stability of the catalyst material at a low current density was very poor. From this, it became clear that when the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 4 was used as an oxygen evolution reaction anode material, its stability at a high current density was much lower than that of the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 21. It was confirmed that the material produced without adding polyvinylpyrrolidone of the multi-coordination polymer significantly decreased both the activity and stability of the electrode catalyst compared with Example 21. Therefore, in this application example, when the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial formed by adding a multi-coordination polymer was used as an oxygen evolution reaction anode material, it was found that both the electrochemical activity and stability were clearly improved compared with the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial formed without adding the multi-coordination polymer.

In a 0.5 mol / L H 2 SO 4 solution, the oxygen evolution characteristics of the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention in water electrolysis were tested, and the obtained polarization curve is shown in Fig. 61. From Fig. 61, it was found that both the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials produced in Example 26 and Comparative Example 5 had an overvoltage of 180 mV at 10 mA / cm 2 in the oxygen evolution reaction (curves A and B in Fig. 61), which was much better than the overvoltage of 320 mV of the commercially available ruthenium dioxide material (curve C in Fig. 61). In Example 26, the electrochemical activity corresponded to the nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 5. Application Example 13 - Stability Test

Figure 62 shows 0.5 mol / L H 2 SO 4 solution when used as the oxygen evolution anode material of the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide material obtained in Example 26 of the present invention at a current density of 100 mA / cm 2 and Figure 63 shows 0.5 mol / L H 2 SO 4 solution when used as the oxygen evolution anode material of the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide material obtained in Example 26 of the present invention at a current density of 200 mA / cm 2 The stability curves are shown. From Figures 62 and 63, it was found that when maintained at current densities of 100 and 200 mA / cm 2 for 24 hours and 100 hours respectively, the current of the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 26 hardly decayed. As shown in Figure 81, the stability of the catalyst material at high current densities is clearly superior to that of commercially available ruthenium dioxide. From this, it was clarified that the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 26 has high stability at high current densities when used as the oxygen evolution reaction anode material. Figure 64 shows 0.5 mol / L H 2 SO 4 solution when used as the oxygen evolution anode material of the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide material obtained in Comparative Example 5 of the present invention at a current density of 100 mA / cm 2 and Figure 65 shows 0.5 mol / L H 2 SO 4 solution when used as the oxygen evolution anode material of the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide material obtained in Comparative Example 5 of the present invention at a current density of 200 mA / cm 2 The stability curves are shown. From Figures 64 and 65, at 100 and 200 mA / cm2 When maintained for 24 hours and 100 hours respectively at the current density of, the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 5 was 200 mA / cm 2 At high current density, it was found that the current decayed rapidly. From this, it became clear that the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained by adding ammonium citrate was inferior in stability at high current density to the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 26 when used as an oxygen evolution reaction anode material. Therefore, in this application example, it was confirmed that the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial formed by adding a multi-ligand polymer showed significantly improved stability compared to the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial formed by adding ammonium citrate as a complex when used as an oxygen evolution reaction anode material.

[0159] Using a calomel electrode as the reference electrode, a platinum sheet electrode as the counter electrode, and the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials obtained in Example 26 and Comparative Example 6 and commercially available ruthenium dioxide as the working electrode, in a 3-electrode system, in a 0.5 mol / L H 2 SO 4 solution, the oxygen evolution characteristics of the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention in water electrolysis were tested, and the obtained polarization curves are shown in Fig. 66. Using a 2-electrode system with the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials obtained in Example 26 and Comparative Example 6 or commercially available ruthenium dioxide as the anode and a platinum sheet electrode as the cathode, the stability of the oxygen evolution reaction of the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention in water electrolysis was tested. From Fig. 66, the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials obtained in Example 26 and Comparative Example 6 were excellent in oxygen evolution characteristics (curve B and curve A in Fig. 66) in water electrolysis, and were much superior to the commercially available ruthenium dioxide material (curve C in Fig. 66), and at 10 mA / cm 2It was found that the overvoltage was 170 mV at the current density, both of which were lower than the overvoltage of 320 mV of commercially available ruthenium dioxide. The chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 26 has an activity equivalent to that of the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 6 when used as an electrode catalyst for an oxygen evolution reaction anode material. Figure 67 shows 0.5 mol / L H when the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide material obtained in Comparative Example 6 of the present invention is used as an oxygen evolution anode material. 2 SO 4 in the solution at a current density of 50 mA / cm 2 This is a stability curve at the current density. From Figure 67, when maintained at a current density of 50 mA / cm 2 for half an hour, the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 6 was found to have a rapid decay within 80 seconds in its stability curve, that is, it was found that the stability of the catalyst material at a low current density was very poor. From this, it became clear that the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 6 was much inferior in stability at a high current density to the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 26 when used as an oxygen evolution reaction anode material. Therefore, in this application example, it was confirmed that the chromium-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial formed by adding a multi-ligand polymer has significantly improved stability compared to the manganese-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial formed without adding a multi-ligand polymer when used as an oxygen evolution reaction anode material.

From Figure 68, the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 27 is excellent in the oxygen evolution characteristics in water electrolysis (curve A in Figure 68), far superior to the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 7 (curve B in Figure 68) and the commercially available ruthenium dioxide material (curve C in Figure 68). At a current density of 10 mA / cm 2 It was found that the overpotential is 170 mV, which is significantly lower than the 220 mV of the material obtained in Comparative Example 7 and the 320 mV of the commercially available ruthenium dioxide. From this, it is clear that the nanomaterial of tin-doped ruthenium oxide obtained in Example 27 has more excellent oxygen evolution reaction activity than the nanomaterial of tin-doped ruthenium oxide containing ammonium citrate in Comparative Example 7 and the commercially available ruthenium dioxide. Application Example 16 - Stability Test
[0161] The stability of the oxygen evolution reaction in the water electrolysis of the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention was tested by a two-electrode system using the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 27 as the anode or the commercially available ruthenium dioxide, and a platinum sheet electrode as the cathode. Figure 69 is the stability curve at a current density of 100 mA / cm 2 in a 0.5 mol / L H 4 SO 2 solution when used as the oxygen evolution anode material of the tin-doped ruthenium oxide material obtained in Example 27 of the present invention, and Figure 70 is the stability curve at a current density of 200 mA / cm 2 in a 0.5 mol / L H 4 SO 2 solution when used as the oxygen evolution anode material of the tin-doped ruthenium oxide material obtained in Example 27 of the present invention. From Figures 69 and 70, at 100 and 200 mA / cm 2When maintained at a current density for 24 hours and 80 hours respectively, it was found that the current of the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 27 hardly decayed. As shown in Figure 81, the stability of the catalyst material at a high current density is much better than that of commercially available ruthenium dioxide. From this, it was revealed that the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 27 has high stability at a high current density when used as an oxygen evolution reaction anode material. Figure 71 is the stability curve at a current density of 100 mA / cm 2 in a 0.5 mol / L H 4 SO 2 solution when the tin-doped ruthenium oxide material obtained in Comparative Example 7 of the present invention is used as an oxygen evolution anode material, and Figure 72 is the stability curve at a current density of 200 mA / cm 2 in a 0.5 mol / L H 4 SO 2 solution when the tin-doped ruthenium oxide material obtained in Comparative Example 7 of the present invention is used as an oxygen evolution anode material. From Figures 71 and 72, when maintained at current densities of 100 and 200 mA / cm 2 for 24 hours and 100 hours respectively, it was found that at a high current density of 200 mA / cm 2 of the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 7, an obvious decay in current was observed. As shown in Figure 81, the stability of the catalyst material at a high current density is much better than that of commercially available ruthenium dioxide. From this, it was revealed that the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained by adding ammonium citrate has better stability at a high current density than commercially available ruthenium dioxide when used as an oxygen evolution reaction anode material, but not as good as the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 27. Therefore, in this application example, it was observed that when the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial formed by adding a multi-ligand polymer is used as an oxygen evolution reaction anode material, both the activity and stability are significantly increased compared to the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial formed by adding ammonium citrate as a ligand.

[0162] Using a calomel electrode as the reference electrode, a platinum sheet electrode as the counter electrode, and a three - electrode system with the tin - doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials obtained in Example 27 and Comparative Example 8 and commercially available ruthenium dioxide as the working electrode, in a 0.5 mol / L H 2 SO 4 solution, the oxygen evolution characteristics of the tin - doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention in water electrolysis were tested, and the obtained polarization curve is shown in Fig. 73. Using a two - electrode system with the tin - doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials obtained in Example 27 and Comparative Example 8 or commercially available ruthenium dioxide as the anode and a platinum sheet electrode as the cathode, the stability of the oxygen evolution reaction in the water electrolysis of the tin - doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial of the present invention was tested. From Fig. 73, the tin - doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterials obtained in Example 27 and Comparative Example 8 are excellent in oxygen evolution characteristics (curve B and curve A in Fig. 73) in water electrolysis, far superior to the commercially available ruthenium dioxide material (curve C in Fig. 73), and the overvoltages at a current density of 10 mA / cm 2 were 146 mV and 190 mV respectively, both lower than the 320 mV overvoltage of commercially available ruthenium dioxide. On the other hand, the tin - doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 27 is far more excellent in activity when used as the electrode catalyst of the oxygen evolution reaction anode material than the tin - doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 8. Fig. 74 is the stability curve at a current density of 100 mA / cm 2 SO 4 in a solution when the tin - doped ruthenium oxide material obtained in Comparative Example 8 of the present invention is used as the oxygen evolution anode material. From Fig. 74, at 100 mA / cm 2 current density, 2When maintained at a current density for 24 hours, the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 8 showed a 175 mV attenuation within 24 hours in the stability curve, that is, it was found that the catalytic material had very poor stability at a high current density. From this, it became clear that when the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Comparative Example 8 was used as an oxygen evolution reaction anode material, its stability at a high current density was much lower than that of the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial obtained in Example 27. Therefore, in this application example, it was confirmed that when the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial formed by adding a multi-ligand polymer was used as an oxygen evolution reaction anode material, both its activity and stability were significantly improved compared to the tin-doped ruthenium oxide nanomaterial formed without adding a multi-ligand polymer.
