Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of non-noble metal oxygen reduction electrocatalyst for the cathode of a fuel cell. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: enabling chitosan and salicylaldehyde to react in an ethanol solvent to obtain a chitosan salicylaldehyde Schiff base compound; then enabling the chitosan salicylaldehyde Schiff base compound and metal ions to react in the ethanol solution to obtain a solid crude product, and then washing and drying by using anhydrous ethanol to obtain a chitosan salicylaldehyde Schiff base metal complex; then mixing the chitosan salicylaldehyde Schiff base metal complex and high-purity graphite in an anhydrous ethanol solution, carrying out ultrasonic oscillation to react for 3 hours, filtering, washing and drying to obtain a carbon-supported metal-nitrogen-carbon composite catalyst, and then roasting under the protection of nitrogen at constant temperature to prepare a metal-nitrogen-carbon composite oxygen reduction electrocatalyst. The method disclosed by the invention can be used for preparing the non-noble metal oxygen reduction catalyst by taking the low-cost easily-available chitosan and non-Pt system metal as raw materials and has the advantages of low cost, simple preparation method, stability in structure and wide application prospect in the fuel cell.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of a fuel cell oxygen reduction electrocatalyst, in particular to a preparation method of a fuel cell cathode oxygen reduction non-noble metal electrocatalyst. Background technique [0002] The main obstacle to the commercial application of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) is that both the hydrogen anodic oxidation reaction (HOR) and the oxygen cathodic reduction reaction (ORR) require the use of expensive platinum-based catalysts, making the battery cost too high. Moreover, on platinum-based catalysts, the reaction rate of ORR is 6-7 orders of magnitude lower than that of HOR. To make up for this deficiency, more platinum loading is often required. Although platinum-based catalysts have the best selectivity for the 4e transfer reaction. But in a direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC), methanol diffuses to the cathode catalyst for direct oxidation reaction, generating a mixed potential and poisoning ...
