Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of batteries, and in particular relates to a fuel cell and a hydrogen production dual-function catalyst and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] A proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is a device that converts chemical energy stored in hydrogen into electrical energy. Its components include membrane electrode, bipolar plate, current collecting plate and end plate. The membrane electrode is composed of a proton exchange membrane, an anode catalyst layer, a cathode catalyst layer, an anode diffusion layer and a cathode diffusion layer. The proton membrane and the catalyst layer are sealed with a frame, and the two sides of the catalyst layer are covered with diffusion layers.

[0003] The Unitized Regenerative Fuel Cell (URFC) is a highly efficient energy storage device derived from PEMFC technology. When voltage is applied to both ends of the current collector, it can operate in the water electrolysis hydrogen production mode. When hydrogen is introduced into the anode and air is introduced into the cathode, it can enter the fuel cell mode to generate electricity. Hydrogen energy is used for backup power supply, energy storage, etc., and URFC has great application potential. Traditional hydrogen energy storage devices include three modules: water electrolysis hydrogen production, hydrogen storage, and fuel cells. The URFC device integrates the hydrogen production electrolyzer and the fuel cell stack to achieve dual functions. The system is more compact, more integrated, and easy to maintain.

[0004] In the water electrolysis mode, oxygen evolution reaction (OER) occurs at the anode and hydrogen evolution reaction (HOR) occurs at the cathode. In the fuel cell mode, hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) occurs at the anode and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) occurs at the cathode.

[0005] The document Energy Environ. Sci., 2020, 13, 4872 discloses a design scheme for URFC, dissolving Pt black and Ir black catalysts in a solvent and combining ultrasonic spraying technology to prepare OER and ORR dual-functional catalytic layers. However, Ir black and Pt black particles are large, with low catalytic activity and low utilization rate. At the same time, it is difficult to ensure the uniformity of the catalytic layer by physical mixing alone. Moreover, the potential is high in the electrolytic water working mode, and Pt is easily oxidized, losing ORR oxygen reduction activity, thereby reducing the performance of the fuel cell mode. Summary of the invention

[0006] The embodiment of the present invention provides a fuel cell and hydrogen production bifunctional catalyst and a preparation method thereof, aiming to solve the problems of poor catalytic performance of existing catalysts, low catalyst utilization, easy oxidation at high potential resulting in decreased oxygen reduction (ORR) catalytic performance, and short switching life between the two working modes of hydrogen production and fuel cell.

[0018] Preferably, the precursor mixture also contains a carrier; the carrier is a metal oxide carrier. The embodiment of the present application may not add a carrier, or may use a metal oxide carrier resistant to high potential and acid corrosion; the carrier helps to improve the dispersibility and stability of the IrRu alloy nanoparticles and inhibit the agglomeration of the particles.

[0019] The metal oxide support includes at least one of niobium oxide (Nb2O5), titanium suboxide (Ti4O7), tantalum oxide (Ta2O5) or antimony tin oxide (ATO).

[0020] As a preferred embodiment, in step S02,

[0021] The heating is achieved by microwave heating; the heating is preferably carried out under an inert atmosphere. Inert gas can be selected as a protective gas or no inert gas can be used during the reaction.

[0030] On the other hand, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a fuel cell and a hydrogen production bifunctional catalyst, wherein the fuel cell and the hydrogen production bifunctional catalyst are prepared by the above-mentioned preparation method.

[0032] Compared with the simple physical mixture of the traditional Ir-based and Pt-based catalysts, the catalytic layer prepared by the IrxRuy alloy catalyst of the present application is more uniform and has a longer life span in switching between hydrogen production and fuel cell working modes.

[0033] Compared with conventional Pt catalysts, the IrxRuy alloy catalyst of the present application has CO resistance and lower requirements for hydrogen purity. The preparation method of the present application is simple and easy to implement. Combined with a continuous liquid supply device, microwave continuous preparation can be achieved to realize batch production, and the batch production cost is low. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0041] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are described clearly and completely below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0042] It should be noted that if the embodiments of the present invention involve directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, top, bottom...), the directional indications are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components in a certain specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0043] In this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0044] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be an intermediate element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time.

[0045] In addition, if there are descriptions involving "first", "second", etc. in the embodiments of the present invention, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or suggesting their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features.

[0046] Current URFCs usually use oxygen electrodes with OER and ORR on the same side, which are mainly mechanical mixtures of Ir and Pt-based catalysts or alloy catalysts containing Ir and Pt, with poor catalytic performance and low catalyst utilization. In addition, in the water electrolysis mode, OER is at a high potential (≥1.5V), and the Pt-based catalyst used for the ORR reaction is easily oxidized at such a high potential, resulting in a decrease in the oxygen reduction ORR catalytic performance and a low switching life between the two working modes of hydrogen production and fuel cells.

[0047] The catalyst prepared in this application has high-performance OER and HOR dual-functional catalysis, and can be used as the anode-side catalytic layer of water electrolysis to produce hydrogen and fuel cells. The cathode uses commercial Pt / C, and the prepared membrane electrode can operate in two modes: water electrolysis to produce hydrogen and fuel cell power generation.

[0048] In the preparation method of the embodiment of the present application, the selection and dosage of each component can be selected according to the actual use needs, as long as it is within the limited range of the above requirements, the present application scheme can be realized. In addition, by controlling the dosage ratio of each component and the preparation conditions within the limited range of the requirements of the present application, the catalytic activity of the prepared catalyst can be effectively guaranteed.
