Abstract

The invention relates to a method for synthesizing Pd / TiO2 nanotube catalyst by UV (Ultraviolet) light induction. The method is characterized in that a TiO2 nanotube is prepared by an anodic oxidation method, the characteristic of generating electrons of TiO2 can be excited by UV light, Pd<2+> is reduced to obtain Pd which is deposited on the surface of the TiO2 nanotube, so that the content of noble metal is reduced, the catalytic activity of the catalyst is improved and the obtained catalyst can be directly used as an anodic catalyst of a direct alcohol fuel cell. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages that the preparation method is simple, not only the problem of poor conductivity of TiO2 nano particles is avoided, but also the content of the noble metal is reduced, the catalytic activity for CH3CH2O is higher, and the catalyst can be directly used for a direct alcohol fuel cell.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of an anode catalyst for an ethanol fuel cell, in particular to a UV light-induced synthesis of Pd / TiO 2 nanotube catalyst approach. Background technique [0002] Problems such as environmental pollution, climate change and energy crisis brought about by the excessive utilization of traditional fossil energy have become increasingly prominent, which seriously threaten the survival and development of human beings. Therefore, the development of efficient, green and sustainable new energy power has become a hot topic in the world today. Among various new energy devices, direct ethanol fuel cells (DAEFC s ) is expected to be widely used in electric vehicles and mobile electronic devices due to its high energy density, green environmental protection, safety and portability [11]. ethanol is completely oxidized to CO 2 It is a 12-electron transfer process and involves the breaking of the C-C bond, and the brea...
