Problems solved by technology

However, how to improve the activity and stability of the anode catalyst still directly restricts the industrialization process of direct alcohol fuel cells
Among many anode electrocatalysts, Pd / C catalyst is widely used, but its cost is high and its stability is poor.
Studies have found that the activity and stability of Pd catalysts can be improved by doping a second metal (Pd-M, M=Pt, Au, Ir, Sn, Bi, Co, Ni) or a non-metal (such as phosphorus), but the traditional simple mixing Doping has limited cost reduction
In addition, loading metal nanoparticles on some carriers with good conductivity and large specific surface area can also improve the utilization rate of the metal to a certain extent, inhibit the aggregation of nanoparticles and improve the activity and stability of the catalyst, but how to choose a suitable one? Carriers remain challenging

Abstract

A highly dispersed supported core-shell structure Pd @ Ni / WC direct alcohol fuel cell catalyst and its preparation method belong to the field of energy materials and electrochemical technology. Firstly, porous WC support was prepared by calcination of SiO2 at high temperature. Ni / WC was prepared by chemical reduction using NiCl _ 2 -6 H _ 2O as Ni source. Finally, Ni atoms on Ni surface were substituted for Pd by substitution method, and the catalyst with Ni nanoparticles as core and Pd as shell was obtained. As that core-shell structure nanoparticle of the invention are uniformly dispersed onthe surface of the WC carry with high conductivity, the core-shell structure can improve the conduction of alcohols and electrons, and the bimetallic alloy has a synergistic structure and an electronic effect, and also can improve the catalytic performance; and the core-shell structure nanoparticles of the invention are uniformly dispersed on the surface of the WC carry with high conductivity. Asthat preparation process of the invention is simple, the raw material cost is low and the source is rich, the cost can be reduced, and the invention is favorable for large-scale production.
