Abstract

The invention relates to a universal preparation method for an active site-electrode structure integrated air electrode. The universal preparation method is characterized in that various polymer microspheres having open internally-communicating hierarchical-pore structures are conjugated with active sites like noble metal groups, transition metal groups, and hetero atom-doped carbon groups in virtue of different treatment methods; the different treatment methods may be one or more selected from the group consisting of a carbon tetrachloride cross-linking method, a concentrated-sulfuric-acid sulfonation method, a carbon dioxide gas activation method, a dopamine coating method, an ammonia gas activation method, a polyaniline coating method, an in-situ precious-metal loading method, an in-situ transition metallide growth method and an in-situ heteroatom doping method. The universal method described in the invention can flexibly conjugate open internally-communicating hierarchical-pore electrode structures containing super-macro pores, macro pores, meso pores and micropores with a plurality of different highly-active catalytic sites by using appropriate methods, so the catalytic performance of the air electrode and the overall performance of a fuel cell and a metal-air battery are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the preparation and application of air electrode catalysts, in particular to an air electrode catalyst comprising an open multi-level porous electrode structure connected with super-macropores, macropores, mesopores, and micropores combined with highly efficient catalytic active sites preparation methods and applications. Background technique [0002] With the gradual depletion of global fossil fuels and the increasingly serious environmental problems, rational and full use of renewable clean energy has become the goal pursued by people. However, the intermittency of these renewable clean energy sources limits their wide application worldwide, so the development and design of new and efficient energy storage devices is the key to solving this problem. Although lithium-ion batteries are widely used at present, due to the limitation of the intercalation energy storage mechanism, the energy density is low, which cannot meet the n...
