The yield of the nitrogen-containing polymer is up to 98%, Feions/N-Polymer obtained through solid-liquid separation does not need to be washed, the Feions/N-Polymer is directly encapsulated by molten salt and microporous-annealed to obtain an iron-nitrogen-doped carbon material with electrocatalytic oxygen reduction performance superior to commercial Pt/C catalysts, the filtrate after solid-liquid separation contains very little unpolymerized monomers, after divalent iron ions in the filtrate can be oxidized again through the hydrogen peroxide to obtain ferric ions, recyclable preparation of the Feions/N-Polymer is performed, no waste liquid is discharged, and the recyclably prepared iron-nitrogen-doped carbon material has electrocatalytic oxygen reduction catalytic performance comparable to that of a firstly-synthesized iron-nitrogen-doped carbon material. The method has advantages of mild experiment condition, simple method, good repeatability, economic property and environmental protection.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of energy conversion and storage materials, and in particular relates to a recyclable preparation method of a microporous iron-nitrogen doped carbon catalyst material. Background technique [0002] With the increasing consumption of fossil energy, the global energy crisis and environmental degradation continue to escalate. As the largest developing country in the world, due to the rapid economic development since the reform and opening up, China has brought serious environmental pollution problems such as water, soil and air. The dual pressure from energy and the environment drives people to seek new green energy and efficient energy storage and conversion technologies. Among the many types of energy storage and conversion, electrochemical energy such as metal-air batteries and fuel cells have been recognized as the most promising energy conversion and storage due to their environmental friendliness, high s...

Problems solved by technology

At present, the preparation methods of iron-nitrogen-doped carbon material precursors mainly include the following categories. The first category is to directly mix the iron source and nitrogen source and then anneal after drying. This method is simple, but the prepared materials are often large in size , the specific surface area is low, and the micro-mesopores are rare, resulting in lower catalytic activity for oxygen reduction in alkaline solution than commercial Pt-based catalysts (Angew.Chem.Int.Ed.2014,53,1.); The second type of method is an improvement of the first type of method. Since the materials obtained by the first type of method have limitations in specific surface area and pore structure, it is possible to add hard templates such as porous silicon and silicon nanospheres during the preparation of the precursor. (J.Am.Chem.Soc.2013,135,16002.), etch it after annealing, although this method can improve the porosity and oxygen reduction catalytic performance of the material, but the hard template preparation and subsequent The etching process is time-consuming, which is not conducive to large-scale production; the third category is to use carbon-based materials with large specific surface areas such as carbon nanotubes, graphene, and carbon nanospheres as substrates (Science 2011, 332, 443.; ACS Catal.2014, 4,3928.), coated with iron source and nitrogen source on its surface, or directly synthesized nitrogen-containing polymer with nanostructure and mixed with iron source, and then annealed at high temperature to obtain iron-nitrogen doped with high specific surface area Carbon materials show
