3D-Stretched Film Ni3S2 Nanosheet/Macromolecule Anthraquinone Derivative Polymers for Electrocatalytic Overall Water Splitting

摘要

For the first time, a new polymer electrode AQS/S is prepared by compositing Ni3S2 nanosheets and macromolecular anthraquinone derivative (AQD) supported on nickel foam with flying colors. The AQS/S exhibits high crystalline structure and abundant S defects. Density of state calculation shows that AQD has stable internal bonding and easy external bonding with metals, conducive to the dispersion of metal reaction sites, ensuring excellent activity and high stability. Under 1.0 m KOH solution, ultralow overpotentials of 62 and 133 mV at 10 mA cm(-2) on AQS/S for hydrogen evolution reaction and on activated AQS/S (A-AQS/S) for oxygen evolution reaction, respectively, are achieved. 100 h chronopotentiometry and the cyclic voltammetry tests show that catalysts have high durability. The AQS/S||A-AQS/S two-electrode system is also found to have good electrocatalytic activity for 1.43 V to get 10 mA cm(-2) in overall water splitting, better than the state-of-the-art 20% Pt/C||RuO2 combination.
