Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of a direct ethanol fuel cell anode catalyst, and belongs to the technical field of fuel cells. The preparation method is characterized in that glucose isused as a raw material for preparing carbon spheres used as a carrier, and manganese dioxide is loaded to replace part of platinum, and on that basis, the efficient and low-cost catalyst is prepared;and meanwhile, rare earth elements are doped, so that electrons are easily excited and transferred from a conduction band, thus oxygen vacancy is promoted to develop, and the oxygen vacancy concentration of the catalyst is greatly increased, and as a result, the ion conductivity is improved; in addition, the crystal size of the material is reduced due to low synthesizing temperature; the C-C breaking efficiency under low temperature is improved. According to the method, TiO2 and Pt are coordinated to improve the catalyzing performance of the catalyst; and meanwhile, a CO type intermediate product produced by ethanol oxidizing is easily transferred to the TiO2 nanoparticle surface to be oxidized; the catalyzing activity and stability of the catalyst are improved while the Pt content is decreased; and moreover, the initial potential of the ethanol starting to oxidize is reduced; high current density is obtained, and as a result, the fuel cell performance is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing an anode catalyst of a direct ethanol fuel cell, belonging to the technical field of fuel cells. Background technique [0002] In direct ethanol fuel cells, the overpotential of anode polarization is still one of the key factors affecting the performance of the battery. Ethanol has high theoretical energy density and output voltage, but due to the complex oxidation process of ethanol and many intermediate products, its actual working voltage and energy density are much lower than the theoretical values. The key to solving this problem lies in the development of highly efficient electrocatalysts. [0003] Since the membrane used in most direct ethanol fuel cells is Nafion membrane (a commercial perfluorosulfonic acid membrane), the inside of the battery is a strongly acidic environment, which requires that the electrocatalyst on the anode side of the direct ethanol fuel cell must meet the following re...
