Problems solved by technology

[0004] 1) The commonly used transition metal precursors and nitrogen sources do not have a clear coordination structure before heat treatment, and often require a heat treatment process to form the active center of the coordination structure, and this process is uncontrollable
[0005] 2) High-temperature heat treatment often leads to complex phase composition in the catalyst, and it is difficult to analyze the specific active center, which limits the preparation method of the catalyst and is not universal
[0006] 3) The traditional preparation process requires high-temperature heat treatment, which leads to a low yield of the synthesized catalyst, usually at the milligram level, and the performance tends to decline after directly expanding the output

Embodiment 1

[0033] Put 500 mg of pretreated commercial charcoal powder in a beaker, and add 200 mL of isopropanol to the beaker, and stir for 5 hours; then place 300 mg of iron phthalocyanine in another beaker, and add to this beaker 200 mL of tetrahydrofuran solution, stirred for 5 hours. The well-dispersed iron phthalocyanine solution was slowly added to the isopropanol solution dispersed with the carbon carrier, stirred ultrasonically rapidly for half an hour, and then the stirred mixture was stirred and dispersed at room temperature for 6 h. Then the obtained mixture solution was subjected to rotary evaporation at 40 °C until the solution was evaporated to dryness and the product was viscous. Afterwards, the viscous material was put into an oven at 80° C. and dried overnight to obtain an intermediate product for preparing the catalyst precursor.

[0034] The precursor obtained above was heat-treated at 400 °C with a heating rate of 2 °C min -1 , the holding time was 2 h, and the iro...

Embodiment 2

[0038] The operating conditions are the same as in Example 1, except that the added amount of iron phthalocyanine is 100 mg.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of preparation of fuel cell oxygen reduction catalytic materials, and in particular relates to a preparation method of an iron-nitrogen-carbon catalyst and its application in fuel cell cathode oxygen reduction. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the world's economy and culture, human beings' demand for energy is increasing day by day. However, with the excessive exploitation of fossil energy, energy crisis and environmental pollution have become the focus of human society today. We seek to develop clean and efficient renewable energy, including wind energy, hydrogen energy, solar energy and other green energy sources that have attracted people's attention. When people develop new energy sources, they usually need to convert these clean energy sources into the electric energy we need through energy conversion devices. A fuel cell is a device that can directly convert chemical energy into elect...
