Embodiment 1

[0052] A method for preparing a nitrogen-doped carbon airgel catalyst (PPyNSs-800) for a metal-air battery, comprising the following steps:

[0053] (1) Add 4.8g of pyrrole, 1.0g of polyvinylpyrrolidone (K30) and 20g of sodium chloride into ethanol, heat and stir until the ethanol is completely volatilized, and a light yellow solid is obtained;

[0054] (2) Slowly add trivalent iron salt solution dropwise to the light yellow solid in step (1) with stirring and heating, until the light yellow solid turns into a dark green solid completely, stop the dropwise addition. Quickly add ultrapure water to the dark green solid, wash and filter repeatedly, collect the dark green insoluble matter, that is, polypyrrole nanosheets, and put them in an oven to dry.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of a catalyst, and discloses a nitrogen-doped carbon aerogel catalyst used for a metal-air battery, and a preparation method. The preparation method comprises the following steps of (1) adding pyrrole, polyvinylpyrrolidone and sodium chloride into ethyl alcohol, heating and stirring until the ethyl alcohol is fully volatilized to obtain an intermediate product A; (2) adding a ferric salt solution to the intermediate product A obtained in the step (1), and heating and stirring to obtain a polypyrrole nanosheet; and (3) heating the polypyrrole nanosheet obtained in the step (2) to obtain the nitrogen-doped carbon aerogel catalyst. The preparation method is simple without involving the conventional complicated and time-consuming template pore-forming step; instead, a precursor is carbonized directly to obtain the required porous carbon material; the catalytic performance of the material is maintained to the maximum degree; the obtained nitrogen-doped carbon aerogel catalyst is large in specific surface area, high in catalytic property and high in stability; and in addition, the nitrogen-doped carbon aerogel catalyst, used as the negative electrode material of a zinc air battery, has excellent oxygen reduction catalytic activity, so that the nitrogen-doped carbon aerogel catalyst can be applied to the fields of fuel cells.
