摘要: 以三聚氰胺甲醛树脂和硝酸钴为前驱体,在Ar 保护下采用高温碳化方法制备用于直接甲醇燃料电池( DMFC) 阴极的含氮碳载钴( Co-N-C) 氧还原电催化剂. 利用热重与红外光谱联用、X 射线衍射分析、元素分析等方法表征了催化剂的制备过程和结构,采用旋转圆盘电极测试考察了不同碳化温度对Co-N-C 电催化剂氧还原催化活性的影响及电催化剂的耐醇性能,并采用该催化剂为阴极催化剂进行DMFC 单电池测试. 结果表明: Co-N-C 电催化剂具有较高的电催化活性和较好的耐醇性能; 其氧还原起始电位在0. 5 V( vs.SCE) 左右; 700℃碳化温度下制备的Co-N-C 电催化剂具有最高的氧还原催化活性.

Abstract:

Co-N-C oxygen reduction electro-catalysts for the cathode of the direct methanol fuel cell ( DMFC) were first prepared via the pyrolysis in Ar atmosphere,with melamine formaldehyde resin and cobalt nitrate as the precursors. Then,the preparation and structure of the electro-catalysts were investigated by means of TG-FTIR,XRD and element analysis,and the electro-catalytic activity for oxygen reduction reaction as well as the methanol tolerance of the electro-catalysts was detected by using a rotating disk electrode. Finally,a DMFC single-cell test was carried out by using the prepared electro-catalysts as the cathode catalysts. The results indicate that Co-N-C electro-catalysts are of high electro-catalytic activity and strong methanol tolerance,and that the onset potential of the electro-catalysts for oxygen reduction is about 0.5V ( vs.SCE) . Moreover,it is found that the catalyst prepared at 700℃ possesses the highest electro-catalytic activity for oxygen reduction reaction.

Key words: direct methanol fuel cell, cathode catalyst, melamine formaldehyde resin, methanol tolerance
