Problems solved by technology

However, the development of ethanol fuel cell technology has been severely limited due to the lack of anode catalysts with high activity, selectivity, and good stability.
[0003] Palladium (Pd) and platinum (Pt) are considered to be the single-metal EOR catalysts with the best performance, but because ethanol will produce carbon-containing intermediates during the electrocatalytic oxidation process and be strongly adsorbed on the surface of the catalyst, causing catalyst deactivation, Result in low catalytic activity and poor durability

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of electrocatalytic materials, and discloses a synergistically modified composite electrocatalyst and an application thereof in ethanol oxidation. The composite electrocatalyst is composed of an active noble metal phase and a basic carbonate matrix phase, wherein the active noble metal phase is dispersed and distributed on the surface of the basic carbonate matrix phase with a nanowire structure in the form of fine nanoparticles. The synergistic modified composite electrocatalyst provided by the invention optimizes intrinsic activity, the number of active sites and electrical conductivity at the same time. Based on synthesis of the matrix phase with a nanowire structure, the noble metal oxide phase is deposited on the surface of a nanowire through hydrolysis, and finally, the active metal phase is selectively reduced by regulating and controlling the heat treatment condition, so that the active metal phase is combined with the basic carbonate matrix to construct synergistic catalytic active sites, and the obtained composite electrocatalyst has high intrinsic activity, rich active sites and good electrical conductivity. And the electrochemical oxidation reaction of ethanol can be efficiently and stably catalyzed under an alkaline condition.
