Abstract

The invention relates to a three-dimensional mesh nano porous palladium-ruthenium electrode material for a fuel cell and a preparation method thereof. In the invention, EDTA (Ethylene Diamine Tetraacetic Acid) is used as a complexing agent, HCHO (formaldehyde) is used as a reducing agent, a PdCl2 solution or a PdCl2+RuCl3 solution is reduced into nano catalyst particles by a hydrothermal method in one step, and the catalyst particles are deposited on the surface of a titanium sheet to manufacture a corresponding electrode. The catalyst particles are uniformly spherical, wherein the diameters of the catalyst particles are about 60nm, the catalyst particles are mutually connected and piled to form a porous structure, and the criss-cross three-dimensional mesh structure ensures that the electrode material structure is stable. The specific surface area of the prepared electrode material is large, thus the electrode material has high electrochemical activity on formic acid oxidation. Particularly, due to the addition of Ru, the starting potential of formic acid oxidation is greatly advanced. The electrode material has the advantages of simple preparation method, stable structure and good catalysis activity on the formic acid, thus the electrode material can be directly applied to formic acid fuel cells.

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fuel cell technology and new energy materials, and in particular relates to a three-dimensional network nanoporous palladium ruthenium electrode material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Fuel cells have the advantages of high efficiency, cleanliness and low noise, and are one of the key development directions in the field of new energy, and are increasingly valued by governments around the world. The direct formic acid fuel cell (DFAFC) which uses liquid formic acid as fuel has the advantages of easy fabrication, simplicity, and convenient use. Moreover, formic acid is non-toxic and non-flammable. It is a fuel cell with important application prospects. Metal palladium is a good catalyst for the electrooxidation of formic acid. Formic acid can be directly oxidized to CO without CO intermediate poisoning. 2 . However, the limited surface area of ​​metal palladium restricts i...
