Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method and application of a Zn / Co-N-C carbon nanotube oxygen reduction catalyst for autocatalytic growth. The preparation method comprises the following steps: stirring a methanol dispersion of 2-methylimidazole zinc salt and a methanol dispersion of zinc nitrate hexahydrate, graphene oxide and cobalt acetylacetonate (III) at room temperature to obtain a mixture; carrying out centrifugation, methanol washing and drying treatment, carrying out high-temperature calcination under the protection of inert gas, and cooling to room temperature; and soaking the product in acid, washing for multiple times, and drying to obtain the target product Zn / Co-N-C carbon nanotube oxygen reduction catalyst. The carbon nanotube oxygen reduction catalyst prepared by the invention has a hierarchical porous property, and shows excellent oxygen reduction activity, cycling stability and methanol tolerance in both alkaline and acidic electrolytes. When the prepared carbon nanotube oxygen reduction catalyst is applied to a cathode of a zinc air battery, good power density and satisfactory cycling stability are shown.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electrochemical energy, in particular to a preparation method and application of a self-catalyzed growth Zn / Co-N-C carbon nanotube oxygen reduction catalyst. Background technique [0002] The excessive use of fossil fuels in contemporary society has caused serious global pollution and energy crises, so it is imminent to explore a new generation of renewable clean energy. Fuel cells, especially metal-air batteries, are considered to be one of the most promising energy conversion devices due to their high energy density and energy conversion efficiency. The development bottleneck of the large-scale application of fuel cells lies in the slow kinetic rate of the cathode oxygen reduction reaction, which usually requires noble metal catalysts such as Pt to meet the high current output. Pt-based catalysts have problems such as high price, scarce reserves, and poor cycle stability. Therefore, it is urgent to develop new l...
