為了解決目前石化燃料使用過度所造成的環境問題及能源危機,水分解所產生的氫氣 (H2) 作為能源,視為最理想的方案。但由於電解水需要消耗許多電能,且在電能傳輸過程中產生的熱能、線材中的電阻,會造成能量的損耗,導致氫氣的燃燒所放出的能量不會與消耗的電能相等,因此尋找良好的催化觸媒,便成為當務之急。
目前許多文獻金屬單原子觸媒載體,具有低導電性的缺點;本實驗以二维 (2D) 過渡金屬碳化物/碳氮化物 (MXene) 家族中的二維材料Ti3C2作為高導電載體,並利用非常簡易方式合成金屬單原子觸媒。透過掃描式電子顯微鏡 (Scanning electron microscope, SEM) 觀察到具有手風琴狀,並利用X光繞射分析 (X-ray diffraction, XRD)證明 (002) 晶面從9.5o往低角度位移至8.6o,層間距離從9.24 Å增加到10.2 Å,再施以超聲震盪距離會增加到14.4 Å,證明MXene薄片成功合成。由於超聲震盪後會將堆疊狀態剝離成薄片狀,造成更多的Ti表面暴露,並利用蝕刻過程中產生表面Ti空位作為吸附金屬離子位點,形成單原子觸媒 (Single atom catalysts, SACs),選擇吸附原子為Pt原子,以X光吸收光譜 (XAS) 並無觀察到Pt-Pt金屬鍵結,驗證金屬Pt形成單原子觸媒分散MXene結構中,另外也發現Pt4+被還原成Ptδ+形式存在於Ti空位中,再加以探討不同蝕刻時間所形成的Ti空位多寡,以利吸附更多以Pt原子作為活性位點降低水分解所需電位,目前純MXene對於hydrogen evolution reaction的過電位為0.62 V,附載Pt單原子後,最佳的效果為蝕刻48小時的MXene負載2 wt%的Pt單原子,其10 mA/cm2下overpotential及tafel slope 都具有最好的,分別的為77 mV和57 mV/dec,可以發現在0.1 M HClO4的環境中,經過24小時的穩定性測試,可以發現只衰退了0.5%。
我們利用簡易方法開發出MXene-PtSAC且負載量為2.2 wt%,利用此方法可以大量製造出Pt單原子觸媒且具有高導電性不必另外添加導電碳材。
Many metallic single-atom catalysts suffer from the poor conductivity of the molecular support. In this experiment, a highly conductive two-dimensional (2D) material called Ti3C2 from the family of transition metal carbides/nitrides (MXene) was used as a support material to prepare metal single-atom catalysts through a simple method. During the etching process, surface Ti vacancies were created, which are seen as the adsorption sites for enhanced loading of catalytic metal ions, thus allowing the formation of single-atom catalysts (SACs). The platinum (Pt) atom was chosen as the adsorbed species for the hydrogen evolution reaction. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations revealed an accordion-like morphology, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed a decrease in the diffraction angle of the (002) crystal plane from 9.5° to 8.6°, indicating an increase in interlayer spacing from 9.24 Å to 10.2 Å.
Further ultrasonic treatment increased the interlayer spacing to 14.4 Å, demonstrating the successful synthesis of MXene flakes. The ultrasonic treatment helped the flakes exfoliate and expose more interlayer Ti surfaces. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) revealed no observation of Pt-Pt metal bonding, confirming the formation of dispersed metal Pt as single atoms within the MXene structure. Additionally, it was found that Pt4+ was reduced to Ptδ+ and existed within the Ti vacancies. The abundant Ti vacancies formed at different etching times were further investigated and correlated with the adsorption of more Pt atoms as active sites, reducing the electrochemical potential required for water splitting. Currently, pure MXene exhibits an overpotential of 0.62 V for the hydrogen evolution reaction. However, it can be lowered to 0.2 V after loading Pt single atoms. The best performance was achieved by etching MXene for 48 hours and loading 2 wt% of Pt single atoms. The overpotential and Tafel slope at 10 mA/cm2 were 77 mV and 57 mV/dec, respectively. It was observed that after 24 hours of stability testing in a 0.1 M HClO4 environment, the degradation was only 0.5%.
We have developed a simple method to synthesize MXene-PtSAC with a loading amount of 2.2 wt% of Pt single atoms. This method allows for the mass production of Pt single-atom catalysts with high conductivity without additional conductive carbon materials.
