Technical field
The invention belongs to new material technology field, relate to a kind of method utilizing animal bone to prepare porous material; The invention still further relates to the application of this porous material as electrode catalyst of fuel cell.
Background technology
Fuel cell is that a kind of operating efficiency is high, environmentally friendly, the novel power generation device that answer speed is fast, and chemical energy can be directly electric energy by it, therefore becomes the main energy sources of 21st century.In addition, fuel cell also has original advantage: normal temperature uses, fuel carries supply convenience, volume and weight specific energy density is high, infrared signal is weak, especially be suitable as small movable and compact power, have splendid potential application foreground in fields such as national defence, the energy, environmental protection, communications.
Electrode catalyst is the important part of fuel cell, directly affects the performance of fuel cell, efficiency, stability and service life.Pt catalyst is the commercial catalysts of comparative maturity, has a lot of application at fuel cell catalyst, especially has higher activity to methanol catalytic oxidation, and in the middle of sour environment, have preferably stability.But Pt is expensive rare precious metals, the cost of catalyst accounts for 30% ~ 45% of low-temperature fuel cell cost.Therefore, the fuel-cell catalyst developing low-cost and high-performance becomes the focus of research fuel cell.
Porous material, be a kind ofly form the material of network structure by through or blind bore hole mutually, the border of hole or surface are made up of pillar or flat board.It is assemble by a large amount of polygonal hole the two-dimensional structure formed in the plane that typical pore structure has a kind of, is called as " honeycomb " material because its shape is similar to the hexagonal structure of honeycomb.More generally the three-dimensional structure formed at space clustering by hole polyhedron-shaped in a large number, is referred to as " foam " material usually.Porous material has unique optical property, therefore in the porous electrode making fuel cell, has good application prospect.
China is carnivorous first big country of the world, and the annual animal bone produced just has more than 1,500 ten thousand tons.At present for the process of these animal bones, mainly abandon as refuse, not only pollute to dynamic tier, and cause the waste of origin.Therefore, the recycling tool for these animal bones is of great significance.Animal bone (i.e. bone tissue) is made up of living cells and mineral matter (mainly calcium and squama) mixing, mainly calcium hydroxy phosphate (Ca
10(PO
4)
6(OH)
2), these mineral matters make bone have solid physical property just, calcium hydroxy phosphate is made to be not easy to decompose in the process of calcining, the gas infiltration produced in calcination process wherein makes it occur cavernous structure, therefore, utilize animal bone to prepare porous material, not only can reduce the cost of porous material, but also the recycling of animal bone can be realized.
