Ni(ii)-based coordination polymers for efficient electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction.

ABSTRACT: The exploration of highly efficient, stable and cheap water oxidation electrocatalysts using earth-abundant elements is still a great challenge. Herein, alkaline-stable cationic Ni(ii) coordination polymers (Ni-CPs) were successfully obtained under hydrothermal conditions, which could stabilize the incorporation of Fe(iii) to form Fe-immobilized Fe@Ni-CPs. The newly developed Ni-based CPs were used for the first time as an effective electrocatalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction in strong alkaline media.

P-type cobaltite oxide spinels enable efficient electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction.

Project description:Currently, energy-efficient electrocatalytic oxygen evolution from water involves the use of noble metal oxides. Here, we show that highly p-conducting zinc cobaltite spinel Zn1.2Co1.8O3.5 offers an enhanced electrocatalytic activity for oxygen evolution. We refer to previous studies on sputtered Zn-Co spinels with optimized conductivity for implementation as (p-type) transparent conducting oxides. Based on that, we manufacture off-stoichiometric conducting p-spinel catalytic anodes on tetragonal Ti, Au-Ti and hexagonal Al-doped ZnO carriers and report the evolution of O2 at Tafel slopes between 40.5 and 48 mV dec-1 and at overpotentials between 0.35 and 0.43 V (at 10 mA cm-2). The anodic stability, i.e., 50 h of continuous O2 electrolysis in 1 M KOH, suggests that increasing the conductivity is advantageous for electrolysis, particularly for reducing the ohmic losses and ensuring activity across the entire surface. We conclude by pointing out the merits of improving p-doping in Zn-Co spinels by optimized growth on a tetragonal Ti-carrier and their application as dimension-stable 3d-metal anodes.

Chemical Structure of Fe-Ni Nanoparticles for Efficient Oxygen Evolution Reaction Electrocatalysis.

Project description:Bimetallic iron-nickel-based nanocatalysts are perhaps the most active for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline electrolytes. Recent developments in literature have suggested that the ratio of iron and nickel in Fe-Ni thin films plays an essential role in the performance and stability of the catalysts. In this work, the metallic ratio of iron to nickel was tested in alloy bimetallic nanoparticles. Similar to thin films, nanoparticles with iron-nickel atomic compositions where the atomic iron percentage is ≤50% outperformed nanoparticles with iron-nickel ratios of >50%. Nanoparticles of Fe20Ni80, Fe50Ni50, and Fe80Ni20 compositions were evaluated and demonstrated to have overpotentials of 313, 327,, and 364 mV, respectively, at a current density of 10 mA/cm2. While the Fe20Ni80 composition might be considered to have the best OER performance at low current densities, Fe50Ni50 was found to have the best current density performance at higher current densities, making this composition particularly relevant for electrolysis conditions. However, when stability was evaluated through chronoamperometry and chronopotentiometry, the Fe80Ni20 composition resulted in the lowest degradation rates of 2.9 μA/h and 17.2 μV/h, respectively. These results suggest that nanoparticles with higher iron and lower nickel content, such as the Fe80Ni20 composition, should be still taken into consideration while optimizing these bimetallic OER catalysts for overall electrocatalytic performance. Characterization by electron microscopy, diffraction, and X-ray spectroscopy provides detailed chemical and structural information on as-synthesized nanoparticle materials.

Fabrication of Trimetallic Fe-Co-Ni Electrocatalysts for Highly Efficient Oxygen Evolution Reaction.

Project description:The development of inexpensive and well-activated water-splitting catalysts is required to reduce the use of conventional fossil fuels. In this study, a trimetallic Fe-Co-Ni catalyst was fabricated using a simple ion electrodeposition method. The metal deposition was performed using cyclic voltammetry, which was more efficient than constant-voltage deposition and significantly increased the stability of the catalyst. The synthesized material presented the morphology of a nanoflower in which the nanosheets were agglomerated. The Fe-Co-Ni catalyst exhibited excellent oxygen evolution reaction (OER) properties because the charge-transfer rate was improved owing to the synergistic effect of the metals. The OER was performed in a 1 M KOH solution using a three-electrode system, and the overpotential was 302 mV at 100 mA/cm2. In addition, the Fe-Co-Ni catalyst exhibited excellent stability in alkaline solution for more than 48 h at 200 mA/cm2. The results show that the method for preparing Fe-Co-Ni significantly improves its catalytic activity, and the resulting material could be used as an economical and efficient catalyst in future.

Nitrogen-Doped Sponge Ni Fibers as Highly Efficient Electrocatalysts for Oxygen Evolution Reaction.

Project description:Controllable synthesis of highly active micro/nanostructured metal electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a particularly significant and challenging target. Herein, we report a 3D porous sponge-like Ni material, prepared by a facile hydrothermal method and consisting of cross-linked micro/nanofibers, as an integrated binder-free OER electrocatalyst. To further enhance the electrocatalytic performance, an N-doping strategy is applied to obtain N-doped sponge Ni (N-SN) for the first time, via NH3 annealing. Due to the combination of the unique conductive sponge structure and N doping, the as-obtained N-SN material shows improved conductivity and a higher number of active sites, resulting in enhanced OER performance and excellent stability. Remarkably, N-SN exhibits a low overpotential of 365 mV at 100 mA cm-2 and an extremely small Tafel slope of 33 mV dec-1, as well as superior long-term stability, outperforming unmodified sponge Ni. Importantly, the combination of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and near-edge X-ray adsorption fine structure analyses shows that γ-NiOOH is the surface-active phase for OER. Therefore, the combination of conductive sponge structure and N-doping modification opens a new avenue for fabricating new types of high-performance electrodes with application in electrochemical energy conversion devices.

In-Situ Construction of Fe-Doped NiOOH on the 3D Ni(OH)2 Hierarchical Nanosheet Array for Efficient Electrocatalytic Oxygen Evolution Reaction.

Project description:Accessible and superior electrocatalysts to overcome the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are pivotal for sustainable and low-cost hydrogen production through electrocatalytic water splitting. The iron and nickel oxohydroxide complexes are regarded as the most promising OER electrocatalyst attributed to their inexpensive costs, easy preparation, and robust stability. In particular, the Fe-doped NiOOH is widely deemed to be superior constituents for OER in an alkaline environment. However, the facile construction of robust Fe-doped NiOOH electrocatalysts is still a great challenge. Herein, we report the facile construction of Fe-doped NiOOH on Ni(OH)2 hierarchical nanosheet arrays grown on nickel foam (FeNi@NiA) as efficient OER electrocatalysts through a facile in-situ electrochemical activation of FeNi-based Prussian blue analogues (PBA) derived from Ni(OH)2. The resultant FeNi@NiA heterostructure shows high intrinsic activity for OER due to the modulation of the overall electronic energy state and the electrical conductivity. Importantly, the electrochemical measurement revealed that FeNi@NiA exhibits a low overpotential of 240 mV at 10 mA/cm2 with a small Tafel slope of 62 mV dec-1 in 1.0 M KOH, outperforming the commercial RuO2 electrocatalysts for OER.

A Low-Temperature Molecular Precursor Approach to Copper-Based Nano-Sized Digenite Mineral for Efficient Electrocatalytic Oxygen Evolution Reaction.

Project description:In the urge of designing noble metal-free and sustainable electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER), herein, a mineral Digenite Cu9 S5 has been prepared from a molecular copper(I) precursor, [{(PyHS)2 CuI (PyHS)}2 ](OTf)2 (1), and utilized as an anode material in electrocatalytic OER for the first time. A hot injection of 1 yielded a pure phase and highly crystalline Cu9 S5 , which was then electrophoretically deposited (EPD) on a highly conducting nickel foam (NF) substrate. When assessed as an electrode for OER, the Cu9 S5 /NF displayed an overpotential of merely 298±3 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 in alkaline media. The overpotential recorded here supersedes the value obtained for the best reported Cu-based as well as the benchmark precious-metal-based RuO2 and IrO2 electrocatalysts. In addition, the choronoamperometric OER indicated the superior stability of Cu9 S5 /NF, rendering its suitability as the sustainable anode material for practical feasibility. The excellent catalytic activity of Cu9 S5 can be attributed to the formation of a crystalline CuO overlayer on the conductive Cu9 S5 that behaves as active species to facilitate OER. This study delivers a distinct molecular precursor approach to produce highly active copper-based catalysts that could be used as an efficient and durable OER electro(pre)catalysts relying on non-precious metals.

Co (II) Boron Imidazolate Framework with Rigid Auxiliary Linkers for Stable Electrocatalytic Oxygen Evolution Reaction.

Project description:Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have significant potential for practical application in catalysis. However, many MOFs are shown to be sensitive to aqueous solution. This severely limits application of MOFs in electrocatalytic operations for energy production and storage. Here, a Co (II) boron imidazolate framework CoB(im)4(ndc)0.5 (BIF-91, im = imidazolate, ndc = 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylate) that is rationally designed and successfully tested for electrocatalytic application in strong alkaline (pH ≈ 14) solution is reported. In such a BIF system, the inherent carboxylate species segment large channel spaces into multiple domains in which each single channel is filled with ndc ligands through the effect of zeolite channel confinement. These ligands, with strong C-H···π interaction, act as a rigid auxiliary linker to significantly enhance the structural stability of the BIF-91 framework. Additionally, the π-conjugated effect in BIF-91 stabilizes dopant Fe (III) at the atomic scale to construct Fe-immobilized BIF-91 (Fe@BIF-91). Due to the synergistic effect between Fe (III) guest and Co (II) in the framework, the Fe@BIF-91 acts as an active and stable electrocatalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction in alkaline solution.

Coordination environment evolution of Co(ii) during dehydration and re-crystallization processes of KCoPO4·H2O towards enhanced electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction.

Project description:Development of efficient and stable electrodes for electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is essential for energy storage and conversion applications, such as hydrogen generation from water splitting, rechargeable metal-air batteries and renewable fuel cells. Alkali metal cobalt phosphates show great potential as OER electrocatalysts. Herein, an original electrode design strategy is reported to realize an efficient OER electrocatalyst through engineering the coordination geometry of Co(ii) in KCoPO4·H2O by a facile dehydration process. Experimental result indicated that the dehydration treatment is accompanied by a structural transformation from orthorhombic KCoPO4·H2O to hexagonal KCoPO4, involving a concomitant coordination geometry evolution of Co(ii) from octahedral to tetrahedral configuration. More significantly, the local structural evolution leads to an advantageous electronic effect, i.e. increased Co-O covalency, resulting in an enhanced intrinsic OER activity. To be specific, the as-produced KCoPO4 can deliver a current density of 10 mA cm-2 at a low overpotential of 319 mV with a small Tafel slope of 61.8 mV dec-1 in alkaline electrolyte. Thus, this present research provides a new way of developing alkali metal transition-metal phosphates for efficient and stable electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction.

Structural and Thermal Investigations of Co(II) and Ni(II) Coordination Polymers Based on biphenyl-4,4'-dioxydiacetate Linker.

Project description:Two coordination polymers, [Co(µ4-L)(H2O)2]n (1) and [Ni(µ-L)(H2O)4]n (2), were solvothermally assembled from the corresponding metal(II) chlorides and biphenyl-4,4-dioxydiacetic acid (H2L) as a flexible dicarboxylate linker. The cobalt(II) compound 1 featured a layer-pillared 3D metal-organic network with a cds topology, while the nickel(II) derivative 2 represented a linear chain 1D coordination polymer with a 2C1 topology. The µ4- and µ-L2- linkers exhibited different denticity and coordination modes in the synthesized compounds, thus contributing to their structural diversity. The dimensionality of 1 and 2 had an influence on their thermal stability and decomposition processes, which were investigated in detail by TG-DSC and TG-FTIR methods. Thermal decomposition products of coordination polymers were also analyzed by PXRD, confirming the formation of Co3O4/CoO and NiO as final materials. The obtained compounds broaden a family of coordination polymers assembled from flexible dicarboxylate linkers.

Nanoflake NiMn Layered Double Hydroxide Coated on Porous Membrane-like Ni-Foam for Sustainable and Efficient Electrocatalytic Oxygen Evolution.

Project description:Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have gained vast importance as an electrocatalyst for water electrolysis to produce carbon-neutral and clean hydrogen energy. In this work, we demonstrated the fabrication of nano-flake-like NiMn LDH thin film electrodes onto porous membrane-like Ni-foam by using a simple and cost-effective electrodeposition method for oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Various Ni1-xMnx LDH (where x = 0.15, 0.25, 0.35, 0.50 and 0.75) thin film electrodes are utilized to achieve the optimal catalyst for an efficient and sustainable OER process. The various composition-dependent surface morphologies and porous-membrane-like structure provided the high electrochemical surface area along with abundant active sites facilitating the OER. The optimized catalyst referred to as Ni0.65Mn0.35 showed excellent OER properties with an ultralow overpotential of 253 mV at a current density of 50 mAcm-2, which outperforms other state-of-the art catalysts reported in the literature. The relatively low Tafel slope of 130 mV dec-1 indicates faster and more favorable reaction kinetics for OER. Moreover, Ni0.65Mn0.35 exhibits excellent durability over continuous operation of 20 h, indicating the great sustainability of the catalyst in an alkaline medium. This study provides knowledge for the fabrication and optimization of the OER catalyst electrode for water electrolysis.
