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 synergistic modified composite electrocatalyst and its application in ethanol oxidation. The composite electrocatalyst is composed of an active noble metal phase and a basic carbonate matrix phase, and 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 synergistically modified composite electrocatalyst of the present invention optimizes the three elements of intrinsic activity, number of active sites, and conductivity at the same time. On the basis of synthesizing the matrix phase with nanowire structure, the noble metal oxide phase is deposited on the surface of the nanowire by hydrolysis, and finally the heat treatment conditions are adjusted to selectively reduce the active metal phase, and then combined with the matrix basic carbonate to build a synergistic catalytic activity. sites, the resulting composite electrocatalyst possesses high intrinsic activity, abundant active sites, and good electrical conductivity. It can efficiently and stably catalyze the electrochemical oxidation reaction of ethanol under alkaline conditions.
