摘要
磷化钴作为铂基材料的替代品,在氢进化反应(HER)中备受关注。磷化钴的催化性能在很大程度上取决于相结构,但由于磷化钴的化学计量学各不相同,因此找出氢进化反应的最佳相仍然具有挑战性。在我们的工作中,我们在多孔碳网络(PC)上精确合成了一系列具有不同相结构但粒径相似的磷化钴纳米颗粒(CoP-Co2P、Co2P-Co、Co2P 和 CoP)。CoP-Co2P/PC 异质结构表现出更高的 HER 催化活性,在 1 M KOH 和 1 M 磷酸盐缓冲盐溶液中,10 mA cm-2 的过电位分别为 96.7 和 162.1 mV,且具有长期(120 h)的耐久性。此外,CoP-Co2P/PC 在碱性海水中表现出良好的 HER 性能,在 10 mA cm-2 时过电位小(111.2 mV),塔菲尔斜率低(64.2 mV dec-1),并且具有良好的稳定性。密度泛函理论结果表明,CoP-Co2P/PC 异质结构的 Co2P 侧在 HER 的每个步骤中都具有最佳的吉布斯自由能,这有助于提高 HER 活性。这项研究为开发高性能 HER 电催化剂和实现大规模海水电解奠定了基础。
Phase-controllable cobalt phosphide heterostructure for efficient electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution in water and seawater
Cobalt phosphides attract broad attention as alternatives to platinum-based materials towards hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The catalytic performance of cobalt phosphides largely depends on the phase structure, but figuring out the optimal phase towards HER remains challenging due to their diverse stoichiometries. In our work, a series of cobalt phosphide nanoparticles with different phase structures but similar particle sizes (CoP-Co2P, Co2P-Co, Co2P, and CoP) on a porous carbon network (PC) were accurately synthesized. The CoP-Co2P/PC heterostructure demonstrates upgraded HER catalytic activity with a low overpotential of 96.7 and 162.1 mV at 10 mA cm−2 in 1 M KOH and 1 M phosphate-buffered saline solution, respectively, with a long-term (120 h) durability. In addition, the CoP-Co2P/PC exhibits good HER performance in alkaline seawater, with a small overpotential of 111.2 mV at 10 mA cm−2 and a low Tafel slope of 64.2 mV dec−1, as well as promising stability. Density functional theory results show that the Co2P side of the CoP-Co2P/PC heterostructure has the best Gibbs free energy of each step for HER, which contributes to the high HER activity. This study sets the stage for the advancement of high-performance HER electrocatalysts and the implementation of large-scale seawater electrolysis.
