Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing a carbon-supported ultra-low platinum catalytic electrode by means of indirect electrodeposition, which belongs to the fuel cell technique field. The method comprises the steps: transition metal M (such as: Cu, Co, Ni and the like) nano-particles in an aqueous solution are highly dispersed and deposited on a porous carbon electrode (PCE) bonded with perfluoro-sulfonated resin through a four-step electrodeposition method, then the obtained M / PCE electrode is immerged into a platinum salt solution for preparing the carbon-supported ultra-low platinum catalytic electrode through displacement reaction. The invention has the advantages of simple process and low costs. The prepared carbon-supported ultra-low platinum catalytic electrode has the advantages of low platinum loading, high electro-catalytic performance, good dispersion of platinum nano-particles and controllable sizes, and can replace the existing commercial platinum carbon (Pt / C) catalyst.

Description

1. Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fuel cells, in particular to a method for preparing carbon-supported ultra-low platinum catalytic electrodes by indirect electrodeposition. 2. Background technology: [0002] As the most efficient device for converting chemical energy into electrical energy, the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is on the eve of commercialization. However, the high cost has always been the core problem that plagues its commercialization, and its high cost mainly comes from the extensive use of platinum as an electrocatalyst. Due to the high price of platinum and the scarcity of resources, it is of great significance to reduce the amount of platinum used in PEMFC when no non-precious metal catalysts with catalytic performance and stability comparable to platinum have been found. The U.S. Department of Energy has controlled the anode platinum loading in the 50kW PEMFC stack to 0.05mg / cm 2 The following is lis...
