探究电催化析氧反应有效的载体材料:贵金属的替代品
发布时间:2024-03-20 02:11
能源被认为是世界人口的重要需求,由于人口激增和工业革命,全世界对能源的需求大大增加。几十年来,严峻的环境污染问题和化石燃料减少的趋势不断激励着研究人员,科学家和政策制定者去探索替代能源以满足世界人口对能源的需求。就可再生能源而言,氢(H2)燃料被视为清洁,可持续和环保的燃料。为了减少环境污染问题并增强可再生能源的能源供应和储存,通过电化学电解水分解制氢被认为是重要的可再生能源手段之一,其中借助聚合物质子交换膜电解槽(PEMWE)技术产生清洁能源H2是目前主要手段。但是,由于在电解池的阳极室中发生的析氧反应(OER)的缓慢动力学,大大抑制了电解池产生的H2的速率。实际上,OER被认为是复杂且关键的半反应,该过程需要转移四个电子来完成反应,与反应标准热力学数值1.23伏特相比,OER然后需要较大的过电势来克服能量壁垒。目前,已证明贵金属氧化物,尤其是二氧化铱(IrO2)和二氧化钌(RuO2)是有效生产氢气的OER催化剂。但是,这些贵金属非常昂贵,阻碍了该技术在工业规模上的商业化应用。因此,如今最小化利用OER复合材料中贵重金属并增强其活性和耐酸性被认为是一个巨大的挑战。这也将会使可再生能源...
