The invention provides a Mn-PtM / C type
platinum-based
oxygen reduction catalyst and a preparation method and application thereof.The preparation method comprises the steps that a conductive carbon carrier with the large specific surface area is selected as a carrier,
platinum nano-particles or
platinum alloy nano-particles are loaded on the carbon carrier based on a
polyol reduction method and with
manganese as an auxiliary, and the Mn-PtM / C type platinum-based
oxygen reduction catalyst is obtained; the Mn-PtM / C type platinum-based
oxygen reduction catalyst is obtained through one-pot preparation, the preparation steps are simple, operation is convenient, and the yield reaches 90%; according to the prepared Mn-PtM / C type platinum-based
oxygen reduction catalyst, Mn is used as an auxiliary agent, Mn and Pt do not form an
alloy, the content of Pt is low, the cost is low, the addition of the auxiliary agent
manganese plays a key role in reduction of platinum or platinum
alloy, the
dispersity and the particle size of the
active component platinum nano particles or platinum alloy nano particles can be adjusted through the addition amount of Mn, and the stability and the stability of the catalyst are improved. The platinum-based
oxygen reduction catalyst has improved
oxygen reduction performance, and can provide
high power density when applied to the field of batteries.
