The invention relates to a preparation method of a
nitrogen-doped hollow carbon ball loaded
palladium-based catalyst, which comprises the following steps of: dispersing o-phenylenediamine in a
solvent for being stirred at a low temperature, adding an initiator for reacting for 12-24h, then extracting and filtering, and
drying in vacuum to obtain a poly(o-phenylenediamine) hollow ball; pyrolyzing an o-phenylenediamine
polymer at a high temperature for 2-6h under the protection of an
inert gas to obtain a
nitrogen-doped hollow carbon ball; and dispersing the
nitrogen-doped hollow carbon ball into water, adding a chloropalladic acid solution for ultrasonic treatment, adding a
reducing agent for ultrasonic treatment, extracting and filtering after the reaction is completed, and
drying in vacuum to obtain the nitrogen-doped hollow carbon ball loaded
palladium-based catalyst. The nitrogen-doped hollow carbon ball loaded
palladium-based catalyst prepared by adopting the preparation method has the nitrogen content of 10.4-22.4wt%, has the advantages of excellent oxidization reaction
catalysis property to
alcohol, stable performance, low preparation cost and simple preparation process, and is a novel high-performance catalyst for a low-temperature direct
alcohol fuel
cell anode.
