The invention discloses catalyst
slurry for a high-temperature
proton exchange membrane fuel
cell (HT-PEMFC) as well as a preparation method and application thereof, and aims to solve the problem that
phosphoric acid (PA) in the conventional HT-PEMFC is separated out from a
proton exchange membrane and poisons Pt active sites of a catalyst layer, so that the performance of the
cell is reduced. The catalyst comprises a carbon carrier,
Pt nanoparticles loaded on the carbon carrier and a
metal oxide coating the surfaces of the
Pt nanoparticles, the catalyst
slurry is composed of the catalyst, water, an
alcohol dispersant and a long-chain polybenzimidazole (OPBI) binder with the EW greater than or equal to 106, and the catalyst
slurry is prepared by compounding the components according to a
specific mass ratio and carrying out multi-step
ultrasonic dispersion. The slurry is sprayed on
carbon paper, the slurry and a high-temperature
proton exchange membrane are subjected to hot-pressing
assembly to form a
membrane electrode assembly (MEA), Lewis acid sites on the surface of the
metal oxide can preferentially adsorb
phosphate ions and protect Pt active sites, the
oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity of a
cathode is remarkably improved, proton impedance (1.06-1.15
ohm cm < 2 >) is reduced, the electrochemical active area (87-96 m < 2 > / g) is increased, the service life of a battery is prolonged, and the service life of the battery is prolonged. And the preparation process is simple and easy for industrial production.
