A method for the sustained-release preparation of a high-loading single-atom catalyst and its application

This invention provides a slow-release preparation method for a high-loading single-atom catalyst. Compared with existing technologies, this invention utilizes the ion exchange and interlayer confinement effects of montmorillonite to pre-confine the metal precursor within the montmorillonite interlayer, isolating it from the carbon and nitrogen precursors. Then, the reactive gas generated during pyrolysis slowly releases the metal precursor from the interlayer in situ, anchoring it onto the outer carbon and nitrogen support. This slow-release synthesis strategy enables targeted synthesis at single-atom sites, offering advantages such as high metal precursor utilization, pure single-atom sites, and high metal loading. Furthermore, the slow-release anchoring of the metal precursor effectively avoids nanoparticle formation, eliminating the need for subsequent acid washing and significantly reducing secondary pollution and high costs. In addition, the slow-release synthesized single-atom catalyst, when used to catalyze the activation of hydrogen peroxide to remove pollutants from water, exhibits advantages such as strong oxidative degradation ability, high pollutant removal efficiency, good catalytic stability, and a wide pH range.
