Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of a leafy biomass pyrolytic carbon counter electrode for a dye-sensitized solar cell. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, carrying out heat preservation on cleaned leafy biomass at 700-1000 DEG C under N2 protection to obtain pyrolytic carbon; preparing mixed slurry from the pyrolytic carbon subjected to grain-refinement treatment together with a binder and an ethanol solution; an depositing the mixed slurry on a conductive base, and drying the mixed slurry. The pyrolytic carbon in the leafy biomass pyrolytic carbon counter electrode has a multistage aperture structure; unidirectionally distributed macropores provide effective channels for penetration of an electrolyte and diffusion of redox couples in the electrolyte; a large number of mesopores increase the number of catalytic activity points by increasing the superficial area; and obtaining of the counter electrode with relatively good catalytic activity is facilitated. The preparation method can achieve the targets of being friendly to environment and wide in source, has a high value-added application of renewable leafy biomass and has obvious advantages of being abundant in raw materials, friendly to environment and the like; and the technological process is highly integrated and simple.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of new energy, in particular to a method for preparing a leaf-shaped biomass pyrolysis carbon counter electrode used for dye-sensitized solar cells. Background technique [0002] Since the advent of dye-sensitized solar cells, due to its low manufacturing cost, high conversion efficiency and easy flexibility, it has attracted the attention of researchers and entrepreneurs from all over the world. In 2009, the British G24i company was the first to launch a low-power product in the world. It consists of four parts: a photoanode, a sensitizer, an electrolyte, and a counter electrode. counter electrode), which plays an important role in the catalytic reduction electrolyte. However, the use of platinum not only increases the cost of the device, but also is easily corroded due to prolonged immersion in the electrolyte (generating PI 4 ), leading to a decrease in device stability. In addition, the relatively hig...
