Embodiment 1

[0033] Take 2 ml of Nafion solution with a mass concentration of 5% and add it to a mixture of ethanol and water with a mass ratio of 0.5:1, stir for 5 to 10 minutes, then add 32 mg of platinum in H 2 PtCl 6 The solution continued to stir, and the pH of the solution was adjusted to 8 with NaOH, and heated to reflux at 90° C., the solution gradually turned from light yellow to black, and finally dark black, and a stable Pt-containing colloidal solution was obtained. Then weigh 80 mg of carrier XC-72 (the specific surface area is 250 square meters per gram), fully disperse it with the above ethanol and water mixture, add it to the Pt-containing colloid solution, and continue stirring for 3 to 5 hours to obtain Nafion-modified Pt / C catalyst. Among them, the average particle size of Pt particles is 2 nanometers, and the dispersibility is very good.

Abstract

Nano fine particles of noble metal in catalyst are modified by high polymer of guiding protons. Inductive the said high polymer can increase steric hindrance of fine particles of noble metal in order to anchor fine particles of noble metal in catalyst on surface of carrier so as to raise use ratio of catalyst. Farther, the high polymer of guiding protons is a better bonding agent also. Better binding force is existed between Nano fine particles of noble metal modified by the high polymer and carrier. The synthesized catalyst possesses function of guiding protons. The method for preparing the catalyst includes steps: preparing colloid of Nano noble metal modified by the said high polymer in advance; then, depositing the prepared colloid on carbon carrier. Average particle diameter of noble metal in catalyst is 2-5 Nano, and diameters are distributed evenly. Battery produced from the catalyst possesses better performance of electric output.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a catalyst in the field of fuel cells, in particular to a fuel cell catalyst with the function of conducting protons. It is characterized in that the catalyst nano precious metal particles are modified by proton-conducting polymers. The invention also relates to a preparation method of the catalyst. Background technique [0002] As a new type of energy, proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEM Fuel Cell) has the advantages of low operating temperature, no pollution, high specific power, and rapid start-up. . Fuel cells use the precious metal platinum or platinum alloy catalysts. Platinum is a rare metal with scarce resources and high prices. Therefore, improving the utilization rate of Pt and reducing the loading of Pt are an important part of reducing the cost of fuel cells. At present, carbon black is generally used as a carrier of Pt, because carbon black has a high specific surface area, which is beneficial to improve t...
