Abstract

The invention relates to the field of preparation of direct methanol fuel cells and aims at providing a method for modifying a direct methanol fuel cell anode catalyst. The method comprises the following steps: adding tungsten oxide modified sulfur-containing macroporous carbon or tungsten carbide modified sulfur-containing macroporous carbon into a chloroplatinic acid solution, uniformly stirring, thereby forming turbid liquid; and performing spray drying on the turbid liquid, calcining in a nitrogen atmosphere, cooling the product, thereby obtaining the direct methanol fuel cell anode catalyst. By utilizing the special affinity of sulfur in the sulfur-containing macroporous carbon on Pt, dispersed distribution of platinum in the platinum loading process can be intensified, and the catalytic activity of the catalyst is improved. By utilizing high conductivity and huge specific surface area of the macroporous carbon, the capacity of loading the catalytic center in unit area of the catalyst carrier is improved, and high catalytic activity is obtained; and moreover, the tungsten oxides and carbides are taken as auxiliary catalysts, the effect of ruthenium in the traditional platinum-ruthenium catalyst is achieved, and the effect of dissociating CO adsorbed to platinum is intensified.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of direct methanol fuel cell preparation, in particular to a method for preparing platinum supported on sulfur-containing macroporous carbon modified by tungsten oxide or tungsten carbide. Background technique [0002] Direct Methanol Fuel Cell belongs to Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC), which directly uses methanol aqueous solution or steam methanol as the source of fuel supply, without the need to produce hydrogen through reforming for power generation. Compared with hydrogen-oxygen proton exchange membrane fuel cells, direct methanol fuel cells (DMFC) have the characteristics of low-temperature rapid start-up, clean and environmentally friendly fuel, and simple battery structure. This makes DMFC may be widely used in future portable electronic products. For DMFC, the fuel does not have the problem of storage and transportation difficulties, but the reaction activity is low and the catalyst is easily poi...
