Problems solved by technology

However, the preparation of fuel cell catalysts in DES reported in the above literature is limited to electrochemical methods, which will limit the large-scale preparation and commercial application of catalysts.
There are no literature and patent reports on the preparation of Pd-based catalysts by chemical reduction methods using DES as the medium and their application in direct formic acid fuel cells.

Embodiment

[0019] refer to figure 1 , using choline chloride / urea DES as the medium to prepare multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) supported PdSn catalyst, the specific process is as follows: add 10 mg concentrated H to 20 mL choline chloride / urea DES 2 SO 4 or HNO 3 Acidified MWCNTs were ultrasonically dispersed for 2 h, and 56.4 mM PdCl with a mass ratio of PdSn / MWCNTs = 1 / 4 was added 2 and 42.1 mM SnCl 2 DES solution, control the mass ratio of Pd / Sn added to Pd / Sn = 1 / 0.1~1, add 100 mg NaBH after magnetic stirring for 1 h 4 solid, continue to stir for 10 min, then transfer the resulting suspension into a 25 mL reactor, and react at 80-200 °C for 12 h. After the reaction product is centrifuged, washed and vacuum-dried, the MWCNTs-supported PdSn catalyst is obtained.

[0020] XRD analysis showed that the size of Pd nanoparticles in this catalyst was significantly reduced, and its average size was 2.3 nm, which was significantly smaller than that in the Pd-supported MWCNTs catalys...

Abstract

The invention discloses a multiwalled carbon nanotube-loaded PdSn catalyst based on a deep eutectic solvent and a preparation method and application of the catalyst, and relates to a simple and novel method for preparing an anode electrocatalyst for a direct formic acid fuel cell. According to the method, by taking a deep eutectic solvent as a medium, the catalyst is prepared by using a chemical reduction method. The preparation method of the catalyst is simple in process, and mild and environmentally friendly in operating condition. The dimension of catalyzing nano-particles can be obviously reduced by using a deep eutectic solvent system, so that the metal nanoparticles grow along the surface of a carbon nano tube and are agglomerated to form a special chain-like cluster structure, the electrochemical activity surface area of noble metals is increased, and moreover, the charge transfer interaction among the components in a composite material catalyst is further enhanced. Therefore, the electrocatalytic activity and stability of the catalyst on formic acid oxidation are hugely improved, and the catalyst has the excellent anti-CO poisoning capacity.
