Co3O4复合亚胺型COFs衍生氮掺杂碳材料用作高效析氢电催化剂

Co3O4 composite imine-type COFs-derived nitrogen-doped carbon materials as efficient hydrogen electrocatalysts

  • 摘要: 亚胺型共价有机框架 (COFs) 材料多用于膜分离技术、气体储存和分离等,然而由于其较差的导电性和较低的物理化学稳定性少有应用于电催化析氢中。为了得到高稳定性且高活性的电催化剂,采用更为简便的溶剂热法合成了亚胺型COFs材料 (TAPA-TFB-COF) ,再以Co(OAC)2·4H2O为Co源,通过高温热解得到了二维片层自组装为3D微球结构的Co3O4复合氮掺杂碳材料 (Co3O4/NC) 。研究表明,由于3D微球结构、高温热解促进材料石墨化以及Co与杂原子N的协同作用,Co3O4/NC展现了优异的电催化析氢活性,起始电位从−0.92 V (vs. RHE) 降到了−0.27 V (vs. RHE),电流密度提升为TAPA-TFB-COF的14倍,Tafel斜率仅为151 mV·dec−1,电化学反应电荷转移电阻 (Rct)小至80.8 Ω。

     

    Abstract: Imine-type covalent organic frameworks (COFs) materials are mostly used in membrane separation technology, gas storage and separation, etc., while they are seldom used in electrocatalytic hydrogen precipitation due to their poor electrical conductivity and low physicochemical stability. In order to obtain highly stable and active electrocatalysts, a simpler solvothermal method was used to synthesize imine-type COFs (TAPA-TFB-COF), and then Co3O4 composite N-doped carbon materials with 3D microsphere structure were obtained by high-temperature pyrolysis using Co(OAC)2·4H2O as the Co source (Co3O4/NC). It is shown that due to the 3D microsphere structure, high temperature pyrolysis promoting graphitization of the material, and the synergistic effect of Co and heteroatom N, Co3O4/NC exhibits excellent electrocatalytic hydrogen precipitation activity, with the onset potential decreasing from −0.92 V (vs. RHE) to −0.27 V (vs. RHE), and the current density increasing to 14 times of that of TAPA-TFB-COF, and the Tafel slope being only 151 mV·dec−1 and electrochemical reaction charge transfer resistance (Rct) as small as 80.8 Ω.
