▎ 摘 要
Here, the hybrid of NiCo2S4 nanoparticles grown on graphene in situ is first described as an effective bifunctional nonprecious electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in the alkaline medium. NiCO(2)S(4)pN/S-rGO was synthesized by a one-pot solvothermal strategy using Co(OAc)(2), Ni(OAc)(2), thiourea, and graphene oxide as precursors and ethylene glycol as the dispersing agent; simultaneously, traces of nitrogen and sulfur were double-doped into the reduced graphene oxide (rGO) in the forms of pyrrolic-N, pyridinic-N, and thiophenic-S, which are often desirable for metal-free ORR catalysts. In, comparison with commercial Pt/C catalyst, NiCo(2)S(4)pN/S-rGO shows less reduction activity, much better., durability, and superior methanol tolerance toward ORR in 0.1 M KOH; it reveals,higher activity toward OER in both KOH,electrolyte and phosphate buffer at pH 7.0. NiCo2S4@graphene demonstrated excellent overall. bicalytic performance, and importantly, it suggests a novel kind of promising nonprecious bifunctional catalyst in the related renewable energy devices.
