Problems solved by technology

However, the alloy catalyst prepared by the above method has a problem in that a large amount of transition metal exists on the surface of the particle without forming an alloy, and it tends to melt during the operation of the fuel cell, thereby reducing the durability and catalytic activity.

[0098] Further provided is an intermetallic catalyst 30 made by the method of making an intermetallic catalyst as described herein.

[0099] The intermetallic compound catalyst 30 may include an intermetallic compound core 210 of transition metals and noble metals, and a noble metal skin layer 220 surrounding the intermetallic compound core 210 .

[0100] According to the method of preparing the intermetallic compound catalyst 30 as described herein, since the core-shell particles 20 formed by irradiating with ultrasonic waves include a transition metal in the core, the intermetallic compound catalyst 30 obtained by annealing the same includes exposure to the catalyst noble metal particles on the outer surface to provide a noble metal skin layer 220 in which the noble metal particles are dispersed on the surface of the intermetallic compound catalyst 30 at a high density.

[0101] Typically, since the slurry preparation process for electrode formation is performed at a pH of l...

[0115] Platinum acetylacetonate (or Pt(acac) 2 ), iron acetylacetonate (or Fe(acac) 3 ) and a porous carbon support (VulcanXC72) were added to ethylene glycol to prepare the precursor mixture using a tip-type ultrasonic wave (Sonic and Materials, model VC-500, amplitude 30%, 13 mm solid probe, 20 kHz) under an argon atmosphere. An output of 150 W irradiated 100 mL of the precursor mixture with ultrasound for 3 hours to provide core-shell particles comprising a transition metal oxide coating.

[0116] At this time, the addition amounts of the noble metal precursor and the transition metal precursor are adjusted so that the atomic ratio of the noble metal to the transition metal can be 1:0.5, 1:1.0, 1:1.5 and 1:2.0, respectively.

[0117] The prepared core-shell particles were 2 Annealing at a temperature of 800° C. for 2 hours in a / Ar mixed gas atmosphere provides intermetallic particles including transition metal oxide coatings.

[0123] Experimental Example 1: XRD Analysis of Intermetallic Compound Catalysts

[0124] For the PtFe of Example 3 0.5 / C was subjected to in situ XRD analysis and the results are shown in figure 2 .

[0125] like figure 2 As shown, XRD peaks (about 33 and about 53 degrees) corresponding to the intermetallic compounds are formed starting from 600°C, and then the intensity of the peaks increases with increasing temperature, but finally remains unchanged from a temperature of 800°C.

[0126] Furthermore, for the intermetallic compound catalysts (PtFe) according to Examples 1 to 4 0.2 / C, PtFe 0.3 / C, PtFe 0.5 / C and PtFe 0.6 / C) In situ XRD analysis was performed, and the results are shown in image 3 .

[0127] like image 3 As shown, the (111) peak shifts to higher angles with increasing Fe content in the intermetallic catalyst. The reason is that the mixed amount of Fe in the Pt lattice increases. In addition, the (110) peak corresponding to the intermetallic com...

Disclosed is a method of preparing an intermetallic compound catalyst, the method comprising: radiating ultrasonic waves to a precursor mixture comprising a noble metal precursor, a transition metal precursor, and a support to form core-shell particles comprising a transition metal oxide coating; annealing the core-shell particles to form intermetallic compound particles including a transition metal oxide coating; and removing the transition metal oxide coating from the intermetallic compound particles.

Description

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0002] This application claims priority to and the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2021-0005302 filed in the Korean Intellectual Property Office on Jan. 14, 2021, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to an intermetallic compound catalyst for fuel cells and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0004] A fuel cell is an energy conversion device that directly converts the chemical energy of fuel into electrical energy. Because fuel cells have higher efficiency compared to existing internal combustion engines, fuel cells are attracting attention as a next-generation energy source due to their high energy density and environmental friendliness. [0005] Polyelectrolyte fuel cells (PEMFCs) and direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) mainly operate at low temperatures of less than or equal to about 80°C, thus requiring electrod...
