Problems solved by technology

Pt-based catalysts are still the best catalysts in PEMFC, but the high price of metal platinum is the main reason why proton membrane fuel cells are difficult to produce on a large scale
Therefore, metals of other transition elements are added to form binary or ternary metal alloys to reduce the oxygen adsorption bond energy and reduce costs, but still face problems such as high catalyst costs and low actual utilization efficiency of precious metals.

Abstract

A catalyst for a methanol fuel cell is prepared by adopting a method comprising the following steps of: step 1, forming a non-noble metal porphyrin complex; step 2, acquiring Co / ZnMOFs; step 3, carrying out distribution and doping to obtain a catalyst; and step 4, acquiring the catalyst Fe / CoNC for the methanol fuel cell. The catalyst Fe / CoNC is synthesized by adopting a step-by-step doping method, so that the pore diameter of the catalyst is effectively improved, the mass transfer effect of the catalyst is improved, and the tolerance and ORR activity of the catalyst are effectively improved through the synergistic effect between metal iron and cobalt. Moreover, nitrogen atoms in the catalyst Fe / CoNC are far away from oxygen atoms in methanol, and electron orbital hybridization does not exist, so that the change of the voltage does not influence the adsorption energy of the catalyst, and compared with the traditional catalyst, the catalyst disclosed by the invention has higher tolerance to methanol.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fuel cells, and in particular relates to a catalyst for methanol fuel cells and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, with the shortage of traditional fossil energy, environmental pollution is becoming more and more serious. As a new power generation technology, the fuel cell does not go through the Carnot cycle, has a high energy conversion rate and is environmentally friendly, and has become the focus of current research. [0003] So far, proton membrane fuel cells have become an efficient energy supply for cars and other portable devices. Pt-based catalysts are still the best catalysts in PEMFC, but the high price of metal platinum is the main reason why proton membrane fuel cells are difficult to produce on a large scale. Therefore, metals of other transition elements are added to form binary or ternary metal alloys to reduce the oxygen adsorption bond energy and re...
