Problems solved by technology

The carbon material itself has no activity for the oxygen reduction reaction, but by improving the structure, composition, and surface functional groups of the carbon material through doping and modification methods, the carbon material itself can be catalytically active for the oxygen reduction reaction, but the activity is low and the stability is poor.

Abstract

The invention relates to a carbon gel catalyst for fuel batteries and application thereof. By adopting resorcinol, formaldehyde, a coordination compound, a metal salt and a metal organic compound as raw materials, the carbon gel catalyst which is controllable and adjustable in pore structure and specific surface area is prepared through controlling the adding of the metal salt of different amounts and adjusting the precursor solution concentration, the reaction environment temperature and the carbonization and nitridation treatment temperature. When serving as a nonmetal catalyst for a proton exchange membrane flue battery cathode catalyst, the carbon gel catalyst disclosed by the invention shows good corrosion resistance and stability after long-term use; the preparation process of the catalyst is simple in flow, short in period and friendly to environment; the catalyst is low in cost and wide in application range.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of fuel cell electrocatalysts, in particular to the application of a carbon xerogel catalyst in proton exchange membrane fuel cells. technical background [0002] A fuel cell is an energy conversion device that directly converts the chemical energy of a substance into electrical energy. The fuel cell does not work in the form of a heat engine, and the power generation process is not limited by the Carnot cycle. Most of the chemical energy of the fuel can be directly converted into electrical energy, and the energy conversion efficiency can reach 40-60%. At the same time, the fuel cell power generation process hardly produces harmful substances such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and suspended solids, and does not emit greenhouse gas carbon dioxide, which is in line with the environmental protection concept of today's society. At the same time, the fuel cell requires less auxiliary equipment, saves a large number...
