Cu0/Cu2+修饰Ti3C2Tx二维材料用于电催化还原二氧化碳OA北大核心CSTPCD

The conversion of carbon dioxide into high value-added energy has become a research hotspot.In this study,by using Ti3AlC2 and CuCl2·2H2O as precursors,accordion-like two-dimensional Cu0/Cu2+-Ti3C2Tx catalysts modified with Cu0 nanoparticles and Cu2+ self-intercalation were successfully prepared for electrocatalytic reduction of CO2.The performance of the material was tested,and the results showed that in a CO2-saturated 0.5 mol/L KHCO3 electrolyte solution,compared with the original Ti3AlC2,the initial potential of the electrocatalytic conversion of CO2 to C2H4 over Cu0/Cu2+-Ti3C2Tx catalyst decreased from ‒0.65 V(vs RHE)to‒0.01 V(vs RHE).The maximum current density increased from 0.19 mA/cm2 to 2.5 mA/cm2,the double layer capacitance(Cdl)value increased from 2.61 mF/cm2 to 55.06 mF/cm2.The material showed higher catalytic activity and faster electron transfer rate(Charge transfer resistance(Rct)value was only 16.9 Ω).Moreover,the material showed high electrochemical active area and excellent stability.This research provided a promising method for designing and preparing elcetrocatalytic reduction(ECR)catalysts in the future.
