The invention belongs to the technical field of electro-
catalysis, and particularly relates to a
perylene-based
composite material electrode with Ni loaded on carbon cloth and application of a preparation method of the
perylene-based
composite material electrode in electro-
catalysis nitrate reduction. The preparation method comprises the following steps: dissolving
perylene-3, 4, 9, 10-tetracarboxylic dianhydride,
imidazole and 2, 4, 6-tri (4-aminophenyl)-1, 3, 5-
triazine in DMF (
Dimethyl Formamide), continuously refluxing for 48 hours under the condition of stirring at 180 DEG C, repeatedly cleaning with DMF, and
drying to obtain a perylene-based material; the preparation method comprises the following steps: dissolving
nickel nitrate hexahydrate,
thiourea and a perylene-based material in
tetrahydrofuran (THF), reacting at 160 DEG C for 24 hours, centrifuging, washing and
drying to obtain the perylene-based
composite material of Ni, which is stable in structure, convenient to synthesize and good in catalytic performance. The composite material is prepared into
printing ink, carbon cloth is coated with the
printing ink, a reduction
electrode is prepared, the electrode is used for electro-
catalysis of
nitrate radicals, the
Faraday efficiency is 31.49% under-1.2 V v.s.RHE, the
ammonia nitrogen yield is up to 357.70 mmol h <-1 > g <-1 >, and the electrode has excellent nitrate radical reduction catalytic activity.
