Abstract

In the wake of environmental enigmas including global warming and the exhaustion of traditional hydrocarbon sediments, the usage of eco-friendly power generation is of paramount importance today. Alternatives to traditional fossil fuels such as hydrogen are clean, safe, and environmentally friendly. Moreover, hydrogen as a renewable energy source, as the only by product of burning hydrogen is water. Many electrochemical energy conversion methods rely on the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), but creating effectual, economical electrocatalysts for it has proven difficult. The multifunctional electrocatalyst, nickel selenide-anchored cobalt telluride, has been found to be effective in catalyzing oxygen evolution processes in alkaline medium. CoTe and NiSe, generated hydrothermally, exhibit promising electrocatalytic activity. However, their composite NiSe@CoTe, possesses higher OER durability. The presence of NiSe in the CoTe matrix responses a powerful OER responses due to the synergistic effect in alkaline environment. The NiSe@CoTe nanocomposite shows minimal Tafel value (39 mV/dec) and lower overpotential (247 mV) to attain a current density of 10 mA/cm2, whereas the pristine CoTe and NiSe needed higher overpotential to attain same current density. Following 16 h of utilizing the same catalyst, OER stability was maintained with 88 % current density retention.

调整纳米哑铃形硒化镍锚定碲化钴对析氧的电催化效果
随着包括全球变暖和传统碳氢化合物沉积物枯竭在内的环境之谜的出现,环保发电的使用在今天至关重要。氢等传统化石燃料的替代品清洁、安全、环保。而且,氢作为一种可再生能源,因为氢燃烧的唯一副产品是水。许多电化学能量转换方法依赖于析氧反应(OER),但为其制造有效、经济的电催化剂一直是困难的。硒化镍锚定碲化钴多功能电催化剂在碱性介质中催化析氧过程是有效的。水热生成的CoTe和NiSe表现出良好的电催化活性。然而,它们的复合材料NiSe@CoTe具有更高的OER耐久性。在碱性环境中,由于协同效应,NiSe在CoTe基质中的存在响应了强大的OER响应。NiSe@CoTe纳米复合材料表现出最小的Tafel值(39 mV/dec)和较低的过电位(247 mV),以达到10 mA/cm2的电流密度,而原始CoTe和NiSe需要更高的过电位才能达到相同的电流密度。在使用相同的催化剂16小时后,OER的稳定性保持在88%的电流密度。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry is the foremost international journal devoted to the interdisciplinary subject of electrochemistry in all its aspects, theoretical as well as applied. Electrochemistry is a wide ranging area that is in a state of continuous evolution. Rather than compiling a long list of topics covered by the Journal, the editors would like to draw particular attention to the key issues of novelty, topicality and quality. Papers should present new and interesting electrochemical science in a way that is accessible to the reader. The presentation and discussion should be at a level that is consistent with the international status of the Journal. Reports describing the application of well-established techniques to problems that are essentially technical will not be accepted. Similarly, papers that report observations but fail to provide adequate interpretation will be rejected by the Editors. Papers dealing with technical electrochemistry should be submitted to other specialist journals unless the authors can show that their work provides substantially new insights into electrochemical processes.
