摘要
通过碱性热硫生长机制在 NF(NiS/NF)上生长的无粘结剂硫化镍材料被用作 1.0 M KOH 中水氧化的电极材料和电极基底。研究发现,在 NiS/NF 中,硫是将硫化镍转化为氧化镍/(氧)氢氧化物的活化剂。根据 NiS/NF 的透射电子显微镜图像推断,氧化物/(氧)氢氧化物层的性质为无定形。通电后的 NiS/NF 电催化剂在 1.0 M KOH 溶液中显示出卓越的氧进化(OER)活性,最小过电位 (η) 为 290 mV @ 10 mA cm-2。此外,还利用光伏太阳能电池板在 1.54 V 的电压下制造了一个分水装置。我们的观察结果可为用于低成本氧气进化的金属-钙化物(M-S)电催化剂提供重要启示。
A Self-Supporting Electrode Material (NiS/NF) as a Stable and Efficient Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Evolution: In Situ Surface Activation of Nickel Sulfide to Nickel Oxide/(Oxy)hydroxide
Binder-free nickel sulfide material grown on NF (NiS/NF) by a basic thermal sulfur growth mechanic was employed as both the electrode material and electrode substrate for water oxidation in 1.0 M KOH. In NiS/NF, sulfur was found to be an activator to transform nickel sulfide to nickel oxide/(oxy)hydroxide. A transmission electron microscopy image of NiS/NF inferred that the oxide/(oxy)hydroxyl layer was found to be amorphous in nature. The energized NiS/NF electrocatalyst showed superior activity in oxygen evolution (OER) at 1.0 M KOH with a minimum overpotential (η) of 290 mV @ 10 mA cm−2. Moreover, a water-splitting device was fabricated by using a photovoltaic solar panel to split water at 1.54 V. Our observation could offer important insight into metal-chalcogenide (M-S) electrocatalysts for low-cost oxygen evolution.
