Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of air fuel cells, in particular to a metal-air fuel cell oxygen reduction catalyst and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] A fuel cell is an environmentally friendly and efficient energy conversion device. At present, the cathode catalyst of fuel cells is still an expensive platinum-based catalyst, and the high price of this noble metal catalyst has become an important bottleneck hindering the large-scale commercialization of fuel cells. In recent years, in the research of non-precious metal cathode catalyst materials for fuel cells, the application of a large number of carbon materials with different structures, such as carbon nanotubes, graphene, amorphous carbon and mesoporous carbon, has reduced the fuel consumption to a certain extent. The cost of the battery, but its cost performance is still very low. The performance of non-precious metal catalysts prepared on these carbon m...
