Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of a Rh nanoflower electrocatalyst for an alkaline direct methanol fuel cell, and belongs to the technical field of eletrocatalysis and energy source. According to the method, polyethyleneimine is taken as a complexing agent and a stabilizer, diethylene glycol is taken as a reducing agent, and RhC13 is reduced to Rh nanoflower with a highly branched structure at one step by a heating method in an aqueous solution. The Rh nanoflower prepared according to the method has a unique structure, high specific area and many active position points, methanol oxidation reaction is catalyzed in an alkaline medium, and the Rh nanoflower has high application prospect; moreover, the prepared Rh nanoflower can have a high electrochemical signal without being subjected to ultraviolet ozone processing, and can be taken as an anode catalyst of the direct methanol fuel cell; and the preparation method of the Rh nanoflower is simple and economic, and is suitable for industrial production at a large scale.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electrocatalysis and energy, and in particular relates to a preparation method of a Rh nano-flower electrocatalyst used in an alkaline direct methanol fuel cell. Background technique [0002] Alkaline direct methanol fuel cells have attracted considerable attention in recent years. As an ideal energy supply system for portable electronic devices, its unique advantages include: (i) in alkaline medium, the kinetics of methanol oxidation reaction is improved; (ii) in alkaline medium, the kinetics of oxygen reduction reaction improved kinetics; (iii) non-precious metal cathodic electrocatalysts (such as carbon materials and perovskite-type oxides) in alkaline media have been widely used; (iv) simple aqueous reaction systems. As an electrocatalyst to replace Pt, Pd nanocrystals have been widely used in alkaline direct methanol fuel cells. Studies have shown that Rh-based nanocrystal anode electrocatalysts ha...
