Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of noble metal catalysts and relates to a method for preparing an ordered Pt alloy catalyst. Background Art

[0002] As one of the main applications of hydrogen energy, hydrogen fuel cells have developed rapidly in recent years. However, Pt-based catalysts have become one of the main reasons affecting the expansion of hydrogen fuel cells due to the scarcity of Pt resources, high technical barriers, and high prices. According to statistics, the cost of Pt catalysts currently accounts for more than 30% of the cost of hydrogen fuel cells.

[0003] In order to reduce the cost of catalysts and reduce the platinum loading on the cathode, Pt alloy catalysts are gaining more and more attention. Compared with conventional Pt / C catalysts, Pt alloy catalysts have higher activity, especially ordered Pt alloy catalysts, which can greatly reduce the amount of Pt used in fuel cells. At present, the main preparation method of ordered Pt alloy catalysts is the impregnation reduction method, but the Pt loading is low, generally around 20wt%, which greatly limits the application of ordered Pt alloy catalysts in fuel cell membrane electrodes. In addition, there are the following problems in the preparation process of ordered Pt alloy catalysts: (1) Toxic and dangerous reducing agents such as sodium borohydride and hydrazine hydrate are used, and as the reduction reaction proceeds, these reducing agents gradually decrease, resulting in changes in reduction efficiency and effect; (2) Toxic gases such as nitrides are generated during the preparation process; (3) Higher ordered heat treatment temperature and time are required, which not only increases the risk in the catalyst synthesis process, increases energy consumption and cost, but also has a certain impact on the environment.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a method for preparing an ordered Pt alloy catalyst, which has a safer preparation process, a higher catalyst loading, and a better catalytic effect on hydrogen fuel cells. Summary of the invention

[0005] Pt catalyst can be prepared by reduction using hydrogen liquid phase reduction method, but there is no report on Pt alloy catalyst. The present invention finds that in the process of preparing Pt alloy, Pt ions and other metal ions can be pre-reduced together in liquid phase under the action of hydrogen, without using existing toxic and harmful reducing agents. Based on this, the present invention provides a method for preparing ordered Pt alloy catalyst.

[0006] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0007] A method for preparing an ordered Pt alloy catalyst comprises the following steps:

[0008] Preparing a mixed solution including a platinum precursor, a transition metal precursor, an additive and a carrier, and adjusting the pH to be not less than 7 to obtain a dispersion;

[0009] A first reducing gas is introduced into the dispersion, and after heating and reaction, first solid particles are collected, washed and dried to obtain a pre-reduced catalyst;

[0010] The pre-reduced catalyst is heat-treated in a second reducing gas atmosphere and then acid-washed, and the second solid particles are collected, washed and dried to obtain the ordered Pt alloy catalyst.

[0011] Preferably, the platinum precursor is selected from one or a combination of two or more of chloroplatinic acid and its salts, chloroplatinous acid and its salts, platinum acetylacetonate and platinum nitrate.

[0012] Preferably, the transition metal precursor is selected from one or a combination of two or more of cobalt nitrate, cobalt sulfate, cobalt chloride, cobalt acetylacetonate, nickel nitrate, nickel sulfate, nickel chloride, ferric sulfate, ferric chloride, ferric nitrate and ferric acetylacetonate.

[0013] Preferably, the additive is selected from one or a combination of two or more of citric acid and its salts, ammonium chloride, hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride, octadecyltrimethylammonium chloride, sodium dodecyl sulfonate, sodium dodecyl sulfate, sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate and sodium glutamate.

[0014] Preferably, the molar ratio of the platinum precursor, the transition metal precursor and the additive is 1:0.3-2:0-30.

[0015] Preferably, the carrier is selected from one or a combination of two or more of activated carbon black, graphitized carbon, single-walled carbon nanotubes, multi-walled carbon nanotubes and graphene.

[0016] Preferably, the first reducing gas and the second reducing gas are independently selected from a combination of hydrogen and an inert gas, and the volume fraction of the hydrogen in the first reducing gas and / or the second reducing gas is not less than 1%.

[0017] Preferably, the pressure of the first reducing gas and the pressure of the second reducing gas are independently not less than 0.1 MPa.

[0018] Preferably, the temperature for heating and reacting is 20-100° C., and the reaction time is 0.5 h-12 h.

[0019] Preferably, the heat treatment temperature is 400-100°C.

[0020] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0021] (1) The present invention proposes a method for preparing an ordered Pt alloy catalyst by a hydrogen liquid phase reduction method. First, hydrogen is used as a reducing agent to pre-reduce Pt and a transition metal in a liquid phase, and then a high-temperature ordering treatment is performed. The catalyst prepared by this method has the characteristics of high loading and good dispersibility, and the process is simple, green and environmentally friendly, and has low energy consumption, and has great potential for industrial production and application.

[0022] (2) The present invention utilizes the strong reducing property of hydrogen to reduce Pt and transition metals together on the carbon carrier. At the same time, due to the limited and stable solubility of hydrogen in aqueous solution, a continuous and stable reducing environment is created, allowing Pt ions and transition metal ions to undergo reduction reactions under relatively mild and stable conditions, thereby ensuring the dispersion of metal nanoparticles on the carrier when the catalyst is loaded at a high concentration, and improving the uniformity of the metal nanoparticles. At the same time, it also reduces the energy barrier for forming an ordered Pt alloy in the subsequent high-temperature ordering process, reduces the temperature of the heat treatment, and reduces the energy consumption in the preparation process, making the preparation process more energy-saving, environmentally friendly, and green.
