Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electrocatalysis, in particular to a method for preparing a catalyst for a direct methanol fuel cell and a direct fuel methanol cell. Background technique [0002] Direct methanol fuel cell is a variant of proton exchange membrane fuel cell. It directly uses methanol aqueous solution or steam methanol as the fuel supply source, and uses air or oxygen as the oxidant to directly convert chemical energy into electrical energy without the need for methanol, Reforming gasoline and natural gas to produce hydrogen for power generation. Methanol is converted into carbon dioxide, protons and electrons at the anode. Just like a standard proton exchange membrane fuel cell, protons react with oxygen at the cathode through the proton exchange membrane. The electrons reach the cathode through the external circuit and perform work, thereby converting chemical energy into electrical energy. . Direct methanol fuel cell is a ...
