Abstract

The implementation of cheap iron-based catalysts for seawater electrolysis at high- current–density offers an economical and sustainable solution for industrial hydrogen production in near future. However, Fe-based electrodes suffer from poor intrinsic activity and corrosion resistance in seawater, resulting in unsatisfactory seawater splitting performance. Here, we reported the scale-up fabrication of whole-Fe-based electrodes (NiFe-X (X = O, P) NAs/Fe foam) by facile soaking-phosphating. Surface active layers exhibit enhanced corrosion resistance compared to bare Fe foam, and trace Ni modification lowers reaction energy barriers of cathodic NiFeP and in-situ generated anodic NiFeOOH, respectively. Thus, NiFe-P||NiFe-O pair only requires 1.93 V to deliver 3000 mA cm at 6 M KOH, 60 °C for overall seawater splitting, and works stably for 200 h at 1000 mA cm. Furthermore, NiFe-X (X = O, P) NAs/Fe foam show impressive adaptation to fresh water/tap water/seawater and all kinds of renewable energies, presenting excellent flexibility for various environmental applications and scenarios.

稳健高效的铁基电极，用于在 1000 mA cm-2 以上的高电流密度条件下从海水中制氢

采用廉价的铁基催化剂在高电流密度下进行海水电解，为不久的将来工业制氢提供了一种经济、可持续的解决方案。然而，铁基电极在海水中的本征活性和耐腐蚀性较差，导致海水分离性能不理想。在此，我们报告了通过简单的浸泡-磷化法放大制备全铁基电极（NiFe-X（X = O、P）NAs/Fe 泡沫）的过程。与裸露的泡沫铁相比，表面活性层表现出更强的耐腐蚀性，痕量镍修饰分别降低了阴极NiFeP和原位生成的阳极NiFeOOH的反应能垒。因此，NiFe-P||NiFe-O 对在 6 M KOH、60 °C 的条件下只需要 1.93 V 的电压就能提供 3000 mA cm 的电流，并能在 1000 mA cm 的条件下稳定工作 200 小时。此外，NiFe-X（X = O、P）NAs/Fe 泡沫对淡水/自来水/海水和各种可再生能源的适应性令人印象深刻，为各种环境应用和方案提供了出色的灵活性。
