Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of catalysts for fuel cells, and in particular relates to a core-shell type gold-cobalt-boron catalyst for fuel cells. Background technique [0002] A fuel cell is an electrochemical device that directly converts chemical energy into electrical energy without going through the Carnot cycle. At present, fuel cell technology has been considerably developed, for example: proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). However, most fuel cell catalysts use noble metals, especially noble metal Pt, as catalysts. Due to the limited content and high price of noble metals, the extensive development of fuel cells is limited. At present, binary or multi-element alloy catalysts have been studied to a certain extent, and the cost has been reduced to a certain extent, but there is still a long way to go for wide application, and the catalytic performance still needs to be improved. In recent years, core-shell nanoparticles ...
