Abstract

The invention discloses a silver-manganese bimetal composite catalyst for an oxygen reduction reaction in an alkaline medium and a synthesis method thereof. According to the invention, colloidal silver-manganese composite metal particles with the atom content of the manganese element being 2-25% are prepared by a chemical reduction method. The metal nanoparticles are then loaded on activated carbon to prepare the corresponding carbon-supported nano silver-manganese composite metal catalyst. Furthermore, the performance of the catalyst as an oxygen reduction electrocatalyst is studied, and it is found that the catalyst shows good catalytic performance in an alkaline electrolyte.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oxygen reduction electrocatalyst preparation, and in particular relates to a bimetallic nanometer catalyst used for oxygen reduction reaction in an alkaline medium and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Fuel cell technology is a very promising energy conversion technology, which directly converts chemical energy into electrical energy, so it has high energy conversion efficiency and environmental friendliness. In the past few decades, the research and development of fuel cells has made a series of important progress. The proton exchange membrane fuel cell is the main research object of this technology, but due to the corrosion problem caused by the acidity of the electrolyte, the catalyst of the proton exchange membrane fuel cell is heavily dependent on the noble metal Pt, which leads to an increase in the cost of the battery and hinders this technology further commercialization....
