Abstract

The invention provides an oxygen reduction catalyst and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method includes the steps of mixing a carbon support with a solvent to obtain a carbon support suspension liquid; mixing uric acid, molysite and the carbon support suspension liquid, and desolventizing to obtain a solid mixture; sintering the solid mixture at an inert atmosphere to obtain the oxygen reduction catalyst. According to a result of an embodiment, the oxygen reduction catalyst is provided with an take-off potential at -0.01v vsAg / AgC1 / KC1(sat'd), an extreme diffusion current of the oxygen reduction catalyst can reach to -5.25mA / cm<2> as tested in a 1600rpm rotating disk electrode test, and accordingly, the oxygen reduction catalyst is excellent in oxygen reduction performance. Compared with a commercial platinized carbon catalyst, the oxygen reduction catalyst is more correct in half wave point and much lower in decrement amount which is 4.5%.
