The invention provides a preparation method for a
nitrogen-
doped carbon oxygen reduction catalyst with a
hierarchical porous structure, belonging to the technical field of a fuel
cell. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: firstly, preparing a eutectic
molten salt having a three-dimensional
macro-porous structure by a
freeze drying method; secondly, using the eutectic
molten salt as a template,
doping a
nitrogen-containing precursor, and leading the
nitrogen-containing precursor to be oxidized and polymerized on the surface of the eutectic
molten salt by a
solid-phase
polymerization method, wherein
ammonium persulfate serves as an
oxidizing agent, and a
ferric salt serves as a
promoter; and finally, carrying out high-temperature
pyrolysis and removing the eutectic molten salt. With the adoption of the nitrogen-
doped carbon oxygen reduction catalyst with the
hierarchical porous structure, the nitrogen-containing precursor can be effectively prevented from
pyrolysis loss, structural collapse and
sintering during the high-temperature
carbonation process, the catalyst yield and the
nitrogen doping efficiency are improved, moreover, a large amount of micropores, mesoporous and macropores can be generated, and the
mass transfer efficiency of
oxygen and water is improved. The method is simple and practical, the production cost is low, and the prepared catalyst has excellent
oxygen reduction catalytic activity and can substitute the traditional commercial Pt / C catalyst.
