Problems solved by technology

Wang et al. used sodium citrate as a regulator and low-solubility sodium borohydride as a reducing agent to prepare PdPb nanoparticles, which showed excellent ethanol oxidation and oxidation performance, but almost no cathode oxygen reduction activity; Li et al. modified the P element to the surface of PdNi nanoparticles, and the mass activity of ethanol was significantly improved, but it did not show oxygen reduction activity.

Abstract

The invention discloses a PdZn alloy nano-catalyst applied to an ethanol fuel cell, and belongs to the technical field of electrocatalysis. According to the method, palladium acetylacetonate and zincchloride are used as precursors, and under the atmosphere of hydrogen and carbon monoxide mixed gas, a PdAu alloy nano material with the super-dendritic structure is synthesized through a simple one-step hydrothermal method. Compared with commercial Pt / C with the mass fraction of 20%, the PdZn alloy nano material prepared through the method has the oxygen reduction performance and the ethanol oxidation performance far higher than those of the commercial Pt / C and has the stability performance superior to that of the commercial Pt / C. The method disclosed by the invention is simple to operate andstrong in controllability, and has certain universality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a PdZn alloy nano-catalyst applied to an ethanol fuel cell, belonging to the technical field of electrocatalysis. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the consumption of a large amount of non-renewable fossil energy, environmental and energy issues have been paid more and more attention by countries all over the world. According to incomplete statistics, traditional fossil energy can supply human beings for no more than one hundred years. At the same time, the use of fossil energy leads to climate warming caused by the sharp rise of harmful gases such as carbon dioxide, sulfide, and nitride in the atmosphere. Natural disasters such as melting and raging floods herald the uncertainty and abnormality of global environmental changes. Therefore, the design and development of new, sustainable, clean and efficient energy forms is of great significance to reducing the use of fossil energy, reducing the emission of harm...
