摘要: 电解水制氢具有良好的应用前景,但其阳极析氧反应(Oxygen Evolution Reaction, OER)由于四电子耦合转移机制而具有更大的能垒和更缓慢的动力学,成为电解水的限速反应。因此,研发高效、稳定的OER电催化剂已成为当前电解水产业的迫切需求。本文通过水热自组装和高温炭化热解制备了硫掺杂木质素衍生碳包覆非贵金属铁镍催化剂(FeNi@SC)。FeNi@SC在碱性介质中表现出卓越的OER活性和长期稳定性。在电流密度为10 mA·cm–2时具有216 mV的低过电位,远低于商业贵金属催化剂Ru/C (320 mV) ,并具有长达100 h的优异稳定性。实验结果表明,FeNi双金属协同作用以及S对碳载体的缺陷掺杂,优化了中间体的吸附过程,促进了OER性能。此外,由于木质素骨架与金属离子之间的强配位作用,制备得到的碳包覆层有效地防止了FeNi金属在反应过程中的浸出和团聚。该研究为开发具有高活性和稳定性的OER电催化剂提供了一种有前景的方法,同时也为木质素的高值化利用提供了思路。

Abstract: Hydrogen production via water electrolysis holds promising application prospects. However, the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) at the anode encounters a higher energy barrier and sluggish kinetics due to its four-electron coupling transfer mechanism. This makes OER as the rate-limiting step in water electrolysis. Consequently, the development of efficient and stable OER electrocatalysts has become an urgent need. In this study, a sulfur-doped lignin-derived carbon-encapsulated iron-nickel catalyst (FeNi@SC) was prepared through hydrothermal self-assembly and high-temperature carbonization pyrolysis. This non-precious metal catalyst exhibited exceptional OER activity and long-term stability in alkaline media. Specifically, FeNi@SC achieved a low overpotential of 216 mV at a current density of 10 mA·cm–2, significantly lower than the commercial precious metal catalyst Ru/C (320 mV) , and demonstrated remarkable stability over 100 h. Experimental results reveal that the synergistic effect of FeNi bimetal and sulfur doping promotes the OER process. Moreover, the strong coordination between the lignin framework and metal ions, coupled with the protective carbon coating, effectively prevents the leaching and agglomeration of FeNi alloy during the reaction. Our findings may provide a promising approach for developing highly active and stable OER catalysts, and also offer a strategy for the valorization of lignin.
