preparation example Construction

[0017] A method for preparing platinum-transition metal alloy nanocrystals for fuel cell catalysts, comprising the steps of:

[0018] S1, dissolving the platinum precursor, transition metal precursor, and benzoic acid in N-N dimethylformamide to form a precursor mixed solution;

[0019] S2. Place the precursor mixed solution in a microwave electromagnetic field, and after the microwave acts on the precursor mixed solution to uniformly heat and react, an octahedral platinum-transition metal alloy nanocrystal is obtained.

[0020] Microwave is a kind of electric wave with a frequency of 300MHz to 300GHz. It has wave-particle duality, and it can heat objects rapidly, uniformly and selectively. This is because the polar orientation of polar molecules under the action of microwaves changes with the change of the external electric field, resulting in the spin motion effect of polar molecules. At this time, the field energy of the microwave field is converted into the heat energy of ...

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of platinum-transition metal alloy nanometer crystals for a fuel cell catalyst. The preparation method of the platinum-transition metal alloy nanometer crystals for the fuel cell catalyst includes following steps; S1, dissolving a platinum precursor, a transition metal precursor and benzoic acid in N-N dimethyl formamide so as to form a precursor mixed solution; S2, placing the precursor mixed solution in a microwave electromagnetic field to obtain the platinum-transition metal alloy nanometer crystals of octahedral shape after performing uniform heating reaction on the precursor mixed solution through microwaves. The preparation method of the platinum-transition metal alloy nanometer crystals for the fuel cell catalyst uses the characteristics of having wave-particle dualism and being capable of performing rapid, uniform and selective heating of the microwaves to continuously heat reactant during the reaction process, effectively decreases reaction time, and shortens a reaction period. Compared with a traditional synthetic process, the synthesis period is shortened by about 10 times, and reaction efficiency is greatly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of nanometer materials, in particular to a method for preparing platinum-transition metal alloy nanocrystals used in fuel cell catalysts, and a method for preparing fuel cell catalysts. Background technique [0002] The proton exchange membrane fuel cell is a device that directly converts the chemical energy stored in the fuel into electrical energy. Because of its high energy density and environmental friendliness, it is considered to be an effective solution for future clean energy. Its core is through The anodic hydrogen oxidation reaction and the cathodic oxygen reduction reaction (Oxygen Reduction Reaction, ORR) enable the efficient direct conversion of chemical energy into electrical energy. Among all pure metals, platinum (Pt) is currently the most active catalyst for the ORR reaction, but its high cost is an important factor limiting the large-scale production and commercialization of fuel cells. In the 1990s...
