Problems solved by technology

However, precious metal resources are limited and expensive, so it is necessary to improve the utilization efficiency of precious metals, and the preparation of nanoscale uniformly dispersed supported catalysts is undoubtedly necessary to promote the development of low-temperature fuel cells
[0004] Due to the use of highly conductive nano-activated carbon, in the conventional impregnation method, a large number of noble metal catalyst particles filled with nanopores inside the activated carbon do not participate in the electrochemical reaction of the fuel cell, which greatly reduces the utilization of the catalyst.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of fuel cells, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a dual-element or multi-element noble metal catalyst for a fuel cell. One or more transition metal components are introduced into noble metal, and the noble metal and the transition metal are alloyed, so that the oxygen reduction activity of the alloyed cathode is higher than that of single-component noble metal, and the loading capacity of the noble metal can be reduced; and the spherical porous activated carbon is adopted, more active sites can be exposed out of the catalyst due tothe large specific surface area of the spherical porous activated carbon, and the prepared nano-alloy particles are all concentrated on the surface of the carbon carrier, so that the utilization rateof the catalyst can be increased. In the preparation process, one or more precursor solutions form sol-gel, and macromolecular citric acid and metal ions are complexed to form a whole, so that nano-alloy particles can be prevented from being embedded into internal pores of activated carbon, alloying of the nano-alloy particles can be improved, and the performance of the catalyst is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fuel cells, and in particular relates to a preparation method of a binary or multi-element noble metal catalyst for a fuel cell. Background technique [0002] For the supported noble metal catalysts used in fuel cells, there are already very mature preparation methods, and it is easy to achieve a high degree of dispersion of the supported metals. This type of catalyst is also relatively easy to prepare. The more common method is to first impregnate the noble metal precursor in Carrier, and then reduce at a certain temperature. However, it is not easy to achieve a high degree of dispersion of supported metals for high-loaded supported metal catalysts, especially bi-component and multi-component metal catalysts, which have a wider range of applications, resulting in low utilization of noble metals. [0003] The catalysts used in low-temperature fuel cells such as proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs...
