ZIF-67衍生CoP/C催化剂的结构调控及其高效析氢析氧性能

Structural modulation of ZIF-67-derived CoP/C catalysts and their enhanced hydrogen and oxygen evolution performance

  • 摘要: 随着全球对清洁能源需求的不断增加,开发高效且稳定的非贵金属电催化剂,尤其是用于水分解中的析氢反应(HER)和析氧反应(OER),具有重要意义。本文采用ZIF-67作为前驱体,采用红磷(P)为磷源,并通过优化磷化温度成功制备了CoP/C复合催化剂。XRD、SEM和TEM等表征结果表明,CoP/C-7样品在700℃磷化后表现出良好的结晶性和介孔结构,CoP颗粒均匀分布于碳基体上,这有助于提高电子传导性和催化活性。通过在1 mol/L KOH溶液中的电催化性能测试,发现CoP/C-7样品在10 mA·cm−2电流密度下,析氢反应和析氧反应的过电位分别为233.5 mV和337 mV,Tafel斜率较低,表现出优异的HER和OER性能。此外,催化剂在长期稳定性测试中展现了良好的抗衰减能力。该工作提出了一种新颖的MOF衍生策略,为非贵金属基高效电催化剂的开发及其在可再生能源领域的应用提供了有力支持。

     

    Abstract: The growing global demand for clean energy has underscored the need for efficient and stable non-precious metal electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in water splitting. In this study, ZIF-67 was employed as the precursor and red phosphorus (P) as the phosphorization agent. By precisely controlling the phosphorization temperature, CoP/C composite catalysts were successfully synthesized. Characterization through techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) demonstrated that the CoP/C-7 sample, prepared at 700℃, exhibited excellent crystallinity, a mesoporous structure, and uniform distribution of CoP nanoparticles on the carbon matrix. This unique structure enhanced both electron conductivity and catalytic activity. Electrochemical tests in 1 mol/L KOH solution revealed that CoP/C-7 achieved current densities of 10 mA·cm−2 at overpotentials of 233.5 mV for HER and 337 mV for OER, accompanied by a low Tafel slope, indicating its superior electrocatalytic performance for both reactions. Furthermore, the catalyst displayed remarkable long-term stability with minimal degradation in performance. This study introduces an innovative approach for synthesizing MOF-derived catalysts and provides valuable insights into the development of efficient, non-precious metal electrocatalysts for renewable energy applications.
