摘要
高熵合金(HEAs)由于其结构和热稳定性、可定制的成分和独特的功能特性而引起了人们的极大兴趣。本研究首次采用苯酚-甲醛前体悬浮聚合,经过热处理(碳化、蒸汽活化、h2还原)和球磨,合成了含Cu、Fe、Zn、Ni、Co的无贵金属HEA (CFZNC)负载在活性炭粉(ACP)上。将金属盐原位添加到聚合反应混合物中。电化学活性测试表明,在碱性介质中,当电流密度为10 mA.cm−2时,合成的cfzrc - hea /ACP具有良好的析氢速率(169 μmol.L−1.h−1),过电位为139 mV。实验还表明,Faradaic效率为90.5%,材料稳定性长达30 h。该研究为大批量合成非贵金属基HEA提供了一种新的方法,作为一种高效的电催化剂,可用于环境和能源应用,包括储氢,二氧化碳和硝酸盐还原。图形抽象
Carbon-Supported Noble Metal-Free High-Entropy Alloy: A New Synthesis Approach and Application to Hydrogen Evolution Reaction
High-entropy alloys (HEAs) have attracted significant interest because of the materials structural and thermal stabilities, tailorable compositions, and unique functional properties. The present study synthesizes for the first time a noble metals-free HEA of Cu, Fe, Zn, Ni, and Co (CFZNC) supported on activated carbon powder (ACP) by the suspension polymerization of a phenol–formaldehyde precursor, followed by thermal treatment (carbonization, steam-activation, and H2-reduction), and ball milling. Metal salts were in situ added to the polymerization reaction mixture. The electrochemical activity tests reveal a good hydrogen evolution rate (169 μmol.L−1.h−1) over the synthesized CFZNC-HEA/ACP, with an overpotential of 139 mV at the current density of 10 mA.cm−2 in alkaline medium. The tests also show the Faradaic efficiency of 90.5% and the materials stability up to 30 h. This study has provided a new approach to synthesize the non-noble metals-based HEA in bulk quantity as an efficient electroctalyst for environmental and energy applications including hydrogen storage, and carbon dioxide and nitrate reductions.
