Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an anode catalyst for a direct methanol fuel cell and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] A fuel cell is a power generation device that uses electrochemical reactions to directly convert chemical energy into electrical energy. Fuel cells can be divided into alkaline fuel cells, solid oxide fuel cells, molten carbonate fuel cells, phosphoric acid fuel cells and proton exchange membrane fuel cells according to the different electrolytes used. Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (also known as polymer membrane fuel cells) are the fifth generation of fuel cells developed after alkaline fuel cells, solid oxide fuel cells, molten carbonate fuel cells, and phosphoric acid fuel cells. [0003] Proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) has the advantages of not being limited by the Carnot cycle, high power density, high energy conversion efficiency, no pollution, high specific energy, no corrosion, low temperat...
