Polydopamine and Nafion bi‐layer passivation modified CdS photoanode for photoelectrochemical hydrogen evolution

Abstract: Photoelectrochemical (PEC) hydrogen production, using sunlight, is a clean, renewable, and eco-friendly strategy for solar fuel production. To reduce the rate of photogenerated carriers' recombination and chemically corrosion of CdS photoanode, a composite component surface state passivation layer was introduced. The polydopamine (PDA) and Nafion co-modified CdS nanorods were successfully prepared by simple electropolymerization and dipping methods. The inherent adhesion of PDA can make it adhere well to CdS n… Show more

“…MoS 2 , a typical two-dimensional (2D) layered transition-metal dichalcogenide, has been widely used as a solid lubricant in the aviation field because of the excellent vacuum lubrication performance induced by its high interlayer anisotropy. However, MoS 2 tends to be oxidized by oxygen and water vapor in the atmospheric environment, which reduces the friction properties and shortens the wear life. , Research has shown that metal doping is a simple and economical method to improve the mechanical and tribological properties of MoS 2 solid lubricating materials. Meanwhile, the construction of micro-/nanotexture surfaces can not only improve the bearing capacity as power bearings but can also increase the storage capacity of lubricating materials and prolong the service life. On the other hand, the poor adhesion between MoS 2 and a matrix has always been a perplexing problem. Inspired by mussel adhesion proteins, polydopamine (PDA) formed by self-polymerization of dopamine is a polymer with outstanding adsorption performances, which can be adsorbed on various materials through strong covalent and non-covalent bonds to serve as an effective protective layer for nanostructures. In particular, the rich functional groups (e.g., −NH 2 , −OH and catechol groups) on the surface of PDA have strong chelating ability for transition-metal ions (e.g., Zn 2+ , Fe 3+ , and Mo 4+ ), which is beneficial to provide a reaction platform as a nucleation site to form a unique solid core–shell structure, thus improving the adhesion and load-bearing capacity of the film.…”
