Technical field
The invention belongs to fuel cell electro-catalyst field, be specifically related to a kind of preparation and application of the eelctro-catalyst based on transition metal macrocyclic compound.
Background technology
Fuel cell is the continuous generating device that chemical energy is converted into electric energy, have start fast, efficient, pollute the advantages such as little, be described as the most promising High Efficiency Low Pollution Power Generation Technology of 21 century.Eelctro-catalyst based on noble metal (as Pt) is one of core material of fuel cell, but, its expensive, resource-constrained, easily the problem such as poisoning has seriously hindered the commercialization process of fuel cell.A possible solution is the base metal eelctro-catalyst of the alternative platinum of research and development, promotes the development of fuel cell technology.In base metal eelctro-catalyst field, fruitful work (Energy Environ.Sci.2012,5,6081 are carried out both at home and abroad; Science2009,323,760; J.Am.Chem.Soc.2013,135,1386; Science2009,324,71).Base metal eelctro-catalyst can be divided into following several large class: (1) transition metal macrocycle and derivative thereof; (2) transition metal oxide (perovskite, spinelle etc.); (3) Metal-N-C type base metal eelctro-catalyst; (4) doping type base metal eelctro-catalyst.Particularly transition metal macrocycle and derivative thereof have higher activity (J.Phys.Chem.C2011,115,2604 to hydrogen reduction; J.Phys.Chem.C2009,113,20689), be expected to substitute platinum based noble metal eelctro-catalyst, promote the commercialization process of fuel cell.1964, Jasinski found to contain N
4the base metal chelate of-structure can electroreduction oxygen (Nature, 1964,201,1212), has opened base metal eelctro-catalyst new era in oxygen reduction reaction.Since then, transition metal macrocycle and derivative thereof become the study hotspot of base metal eelctro-catalyst gradually.Traditional preparation method is by N
4-transition metal macrocycle is adsorbed on carbon carrier, heat-treats, and then improve hydrogen reduction activity and stability under the protection of inert gas.But the hydrogen reduction activity of the prepared base metal eelctro-catalyst of conventional method also has a certain distance compared with the hydrogen reduction activity of business Pt/C, therefore, the hydrogen reduction activity that how further to improve base metal eelctro-catalyst is a focus of studying at present.For this problem, the present invention is incorporated into molecular self-assembling method in synthesizing of transition metal macrocycle class base metal eelctro-catalyst.

The invention provides a kind of preparation method of the eelctro-catalyst based on transition metal macrocyclic compound, first transition metal macrocycle self assembly is obtained to the nanostructured with specific morphology, then prepare active sites through steps such as Overheating Treatment and arrange orderly base metal eelctro-catalyst.This method is taking transition metal macrocycle as construction unit, obtain nano level ordered structure by intermolecular weak interaction assembling, realized the ordered arrangement to active sites, synergy that can enhanced activity interdigit, contributes to improve the hydrogen reduction activity of eelctro-catalyst.The present invention is simple to operate, environmentally friendly, and the base metal eelctro-catalyst obtaining can be used for Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells and metal-air battery.
