The application discloses a preparation method of a high-selectivity
hydrogen peroxide production catalytic
electrode, and the method comprises the following steps: (1) dissolving a soluble
copper salt and a soluble
zinc salt in water to prepare a mixed precursor solution containing Cu2+ and Zn2+ with different proportions; (2) adding a precipitant solution to the mixed precursor solution obtained in the step (1) under stirring, controlling the
pH range of the
reaction system, regulating the local coordination environment, the local
electronic structure, especially the microenvironment of the lattice hydroxyl of the
basic copper carbonate, and making the
system generate a
zinc-modified
basic copper carbonate precipitate through aging
crystallization, and then performing
solid-liquid separation, washing and
drying treatment to obtain a
zinc-modified
basic copper carbonate material; and (3) dispersing the zinc-modified basic
copper carbonate material obtained in the step (2) into a
solvent to form a catalyst
slurry, and loading the catalyst
slurry on the surface of a conductive substrate, and then performing
drying to obtain a supported zinc-modified basic
copper carbonate catalytic
electrode. The reasonable lattice hydroxyl structure of the obtained material can be used for electrochemical oxidation of water to prepare
hydrogen peroxide in a
sulfate electrolyte system, and the material has good
hydrogen peroxide production capacity and faradic efficiency.
