The invention relates to the technical field of
intermetallic compound catalysts, and particularly discloses a preparation method of a hexagonal layered Pt-Bi
intermetallic compound nanocrystalline catalyst, which comprises the following steps: weighing
octadecene and
oleylamine, and mixing to obtain a solution A;
platinum acetylacetonate,
bismuth acetate,
ascorbic acid and hexadecyl trimethyl
ammonium bromide are weighed and sequentially poured into the solution A, and a solution B is obtained through mixing and ultrasonic treatment; heating and preserving heat of the solution B, and naturally cooling to
room temperature to obtain a turbid liquid C; and measuring
cyclohexane and
ethanol, sequentially pouring into the turbid liquid C, carrying out ultrasonic treatment at
room temperature for 3 minutes, then pouring out supernate, repeating for 2-3 times, collecting a product, and
drying to obtain the nanocrystalline catalyst. According to the invention, the
electron interaction between bimetallic components is utilized, the
electron structure of a catalytic
active center is optimized, the interaction between the
active structure and reaction active species is enhanced, the evolution
kinetics of a plurality of reaction intermediates such as * O and * OOH in the electrocatalytic
oxygen reduction reaction can be obviously accelerated, and the
kinetics rate of the four-
electron oxygen reduction reaction is improved.
