Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method for a nitrogen-doped carbon dot / graphene oxide nanocomposite electrocatalyst. The preparation method comprises the following steps: ultrasonically dissolving citric acid, urea and graphene oxide in ultrapure water, carrying out a hydrothermal reaction at 160-200 DEG C for 10-13 h after uniform dispersion, and after the reaction is completed, carrying out natural cooling to room temperature; and removing excess citric acid and urea through centrifugation, and carrying out vacuum drying at 40-60 DEG C for 23-25 h to remove water so as to obtain thenitrogen-doped carbon dot / graphene oxide nanocomposite electrocatalyst. Compared with commercial Pt / C catalysts, the N-Cdots / GO nanocomposite electrocatalyst disclosed in the invention presents excellent electrocatalytic performance with a corrected initial potential (0.13 V vs. Ag / AgCl), greater current density (up to 18.4 mA at -0.70 V), excellent electrochemical stability and resistance to methanol or carbon monoxide toxicity; in addition, compared with a mixture of N-Cdots and N-Cdots / GO, the N-Cdots / GO nanocomposite electrocatalyst shows catalytic efficiency comparable to the commercial Pt / C catalysts.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of carbon nanomaterials, and relates to a preparation method of a nitrogen-doped carbon dot / graphene oxide nanocomposite electrocatalyst with high catalytic performance, in particular to a method using urea as a nitrogen source, citric acid as a carbon source, Graphene oxide is used as a template, and a method for preparing and synthesizing nitrogen-doped carbon dots / graphene oxide nanocomposites by a hydrothermal method. Background technique [0002] The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) kinetics of the fuel cell cathode is very slow, and the use of a large amount of noble metal platinum catalyst makes the battery cost too high. At the same time, poor stability also affects the working performance and service life of the fuel cell. Therefore, the development of cheap, easy-to-obtain and highly stable oxygen reduction catalysts is the fundamental solution to reduce the cost of fuel cells and im...
