The sluggish mechanism of oxygen evolution reaction (OER) inhibits the efficiencies of different energy storage systems. Thus, recent studies have mainly focused on designing highly active electrocatalysts to enhance OER. Here, a porous microsphere, copper molybdate (CuMoO4), is synthesized via a simple hydrothermal route. Further, the crystalline nature of CuMoO4 is confirmed via X-ray diffraction (XRD). The chemical states of the designed sample are determined via X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The morphology and elemental composition are determined via scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), as well as energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analyses. The CuMoO4 microspheres exhibit interconnected nanoflake-like structures, which can improve the active surface area and efficiency of CuMoO4. Furthermore, the active surface area of the CuMoO4 microspheres is calculated via the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) method. The obtained catalytic performance of CuMoO4 is compared with those of its basic metal oxides, such as MoO3 and CuO. The obtained overpotentials (ղ) of CuO, MoO3, IrO2, and CuMoO4 were 286, 294, 267, and 247 mV with Tafel slope values of 65, 84, 58, and 53 mV/dec, respectively. The study of the long-term stability of the CuMoO4 electrode reveals that it can sustain the electrochemical activity for 12 h.

用于析氧反应的微球状钼酸铜电极的化学合成

析氧反应(OER)缓慢的机制抑制了不同储能系统的效率。因此,最近的研究主要集中在设计高活性电催化剂以提高 OER。在这里,多孔微球钼酸铜 (CuMoO 4 ) 是通过简单的水热途径合成的。此外,CuMoO 4的结晶性质通过X射线衍射(XRD)得到证实。设计样品的化学状态是通过 X 射线光电子能谱 (XPS) 确定的。通过扫描电子显微镜 (SEM) 和透射电子显微镜 (TEM) 以及能量色散 X 射线 (EDX) 分析确定形态和元素组成。CuMoO 4微球表现出相互连接的纳米片状结构,这可以提高 CuMoO 4的活性表面积和效率。此外,CuMoO 4微球的活性表面积通过Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET)方法计算。CuMoO 4获得的催化性能与其碱性金属氧化物如MoO 3和CuO的催化性能进行了比较。获得的 CuO、MoO 3、IrO 2和 CuMoO 4 的过电位 ( ) 分别为286、294、267和 247 mV,塔菲尔斜率值分别为 65、84、58 和 53 mV/dec。CuMoO 4的长期稳定性研究 电极表明它可以维持电化学活性 12 小时。
