The invention provides a preparation method of a
bismuth oxyiodide-
cobalt sulfide in-situ
heterojunction electrocatalytic
carbon dioxide reduction catalyst, and belongs to the field of
carbon dioxide electrocatalytic reduction.
Urea and
cobalt chloride hexahydrate are used as raw materials, a
bismuth oxyiodide
nanosheet is formed on a
cobalt sulfide hollow
nanotube through a two-step hydrothermal method in combination with a reaction of
halide and
bismuth nitrate, and the in-situ
heterojunction electrode which has good selectivity on
methanol and is used for electrocatalytic reduction of
carbon dioxide is prepared. According to the method, a one-dimensional hollow
nanotube structure is prepared by adopting a two-step thermal
solvent method, and then bismuth oxyiodide nanosheets grow on the one-dimensional hollow
nanotube structure in situ. The method is easy and convenient to operate, meanwhile, a compact
heterojunction interface can be formed between the bismuth oxyiodide hollow nanotube and the
cobalt sulfide hollow nanotube through in-situ growth, transfer of electrons of the
composite material is promoted, the hollow nanotube structure is also beneficial to gas adsorption of the catalyst, and therefore the electro-catalytic performance is greatly improved. The preparation method provides a new thought and method for improving the selectivity and stability of electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction.
