Description

Preparation method of fuel cell platinum alloy catalyst
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of inorganic nano material chemistry and electrochemistry, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a novel low-platinum alloy catalyst for a fuel cell and application of the catalyst in improving the performance of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell.
Background
Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs) are a highly attractive and efficient alternative to the combustion of energy from huaneng energy sources (j. Tollefson,Nature2010, 464, 1262.). However, the slow kinetics of the cathodic Oxygen Reduction Reaction (ORR) and the use of platinum (Pt) -based materials as the most active and stable ORR catalysts have been the reasons that have severely hampered their commercialization (s. Guo, s. Zhang, s. Sun,Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.2013, 52, 8526.). However, platinum has low earth reserves and high cost, which makes it impossible to achieve wide application. Platinum-based metal-transition metal (Pt-M), particularly catalysts combined with 3d transition metals (Fe, Ni, Co, Cu, etc.) (y. Yoo, j.m. Yoo, et al,J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2020, 142, 14190.), by adding a transition metal to increase the activity of Pt while reducing the Pt loading. These alloyed transition metals inevitably dissolve during actual operation of the pem fuel cell, resulting in metal ions reacting with H generated during the reaction process2O2In combination, Fenton's reaction occurs during this process, which degrades the proton exchange membrane and generates aggressive OH radicals. In addition, the resulting metal ions reduce the conductivity of the proton exchange membrane (a.d. Bokare, w. Choi,J. Hazard. Mater.2014, 275, 121.). Among these transition metal elements, Zn has a better oxidation resistance and can effectively inhibit the fenton reaction, thereby improving the stability of the Pt-based catalyst.
Recently, considerable work has focused on adjusting the structure, composition and morphology (n. Becknell, y. Son, d. Kim, et al,J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2017, 139, 11678.). It is well known that catalytic reactions typically occur on the surface of the catalyst, and therefore the surface structure plays a crucial role in determining performance (c. Xiao, b. -a. Lu, et al,Joule2020, 4, 2562.) the oxygen reduction reaction is a surface structure sensitive reaction, whereas the step surface is more active than the low index plane (n. -f. Yu, n. Tian, et al,ACS Catal.2019, 9, 3144.). Thus, another important strategy to improve catalytic activity is to tailor a catalyst with high index facetsA metal nanocrystal. Atoms located at the steps, plateaus and kinks of the high index nanocrystal can act as catalytically active centers (n. tians, z.y. Zhou, s.g. Sun, y. Ding, z.l. Wang,Science 2007, 316, 732)), which is advantageous for improving the catalytic activity. (L, Huang, M, Liu, et al,Science2019, 365, 1159.). However, to date, there has been no clear design using ultra-thin platinum surfaces and high index multi-faceted synergy for efficient platinum-zinc based ORR catalysts. Therefore, the application selects a combination strategy of platinum skin and a high-index crystal face structure aiming at high ORR performance, develops a high-activity and low-cost platinum-zinc-based catalyst, and provides a new design scheme for a platinum alloy catalyst.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to overcome the defects of the prior art and provides a preparation method of a novel low-platinum alloy catalyst for a fuel cell, wherein OH can be reduced through a high-index platinum crystal face of a concave Pt-Zn nanocube/OThe adsorption energy on the platinum surface improves the activity and stability of the acidic ORR.
The invention also provides a preparation method of the novel fuel cell low platinum alloy catalyst and application of the novel fuel cell low platinum alloy catalyst in improving the performance of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
a preparation method of a novel fuel cell low-platinum alloy catalyst comprises the steps of uniformly dispersing acetylacetone platinum (II), hydrated zinc acetylacetonate and polyvinylpyrrolidone into a mixed solution of benzyl alcohol and acetaldehyde, heating to 160-plus-200 ℃, preserving heat for 8-10h, cooling to room temperature, centrifuging, washing, drying to obtain Pt-Zn nanocrystals, and loading the Pt-Zn nanocrystals on Ketjen black.
Specifically, the mass ratio of platinum (II) acetylacetonate, zinc acetylacetonate hydrate, and polyvinylpyrrolidone may be 1: 1.2-1.3: 13-18, preferably 1: 1.25: 15. further, the volume ratio of benzyl alcohol to acetaldehyde is 1: 1. significant changes in the ratio can affect the internal structure and properties of the material product. 20mg of zinc acetylacetonate hydrate and 240mg of polyvinylpyrrolidone were added to 16mg of platinum (II) acetylacetonate. After the same proportional amount of expansion, the performance is not changed significantly.
Further, the preparation method of the novel fuel cell low platinum alloy catalyst is specifically prepared by the following steps:
1) uniformly mixing benzyl alcohol and acetaldehyde to form a first mixed solution; generally, the method is carried out under the condition of room temperature by magnetic stirring for 30min, the benzyl alcohol cannot be uniformly dispersed after the stirring time is too short, and the uniform dispersion degree of the benzyl alcohol cannot be continuously improved after the stirring is carried out for a certain time;
2) adding acetylacetone platinum (II), hydrated acetylacetone zinc and polyvinylpyrrolidone into the first mixed solution, and uniformly mixing to form a second mixed solution; stirring vigorously in general (1000 r min)-11 h) mixing uniformly; the stirring time is too short, and the stirring force is too small, so that the platinum (II) acetylacetonate and the hydrated zinc acetylacetonate cannot be fully mixed;
3) transferring the second mixed solution into a high-pressure reaction kettle with a polytetrafluoroethylene lining; sealing and heating the reaction kettle to 180 ℃, keeping the temperature for 8 hours, and naturally cooling to room temperature to obtain a third mixed solution;
4) centrifuging the third mixed solution, washing with a mixed solution of cyclohexane and ethanol, and collecting the obtained product;
5) washing the obtained product with glacial acetic acid, centrifuging, collecting, washing with ethanol for several times, and drying at 60 ℃ overnight to obtain Pt-Zn nanocrystalline; loading Pt-Zn nanocrystalline on Ketjen black to obtain the final product. It is a concave Pt-Zn nanocube with a high-index platinum crystal face capable of reducing OH/OAdsorption energy on the surface of Pt; moreover, the antioxidant metal zinc and the platinum-rich surface engineering have good synergistic effect, and the content of the antioxidant metal zinc is 1.18 mA mu gPt-1The mass activity of (2) was 3.89 mA cm at 0.9V (vs RHE)-2Specific activity of (3). H assembled from the catalyst2-O2The fuel cell has ultrahigh peak power density of 1449 mW cm-2The performance is superior to commercial Pt/C.
Specifically, in the step 1), the volume ratio of benzyl alcohol to acetaldehyde is 1: 0.5-2.
Specifically, in step 3), the mixture was heated from room temperature to 180 ℃ within 30 min.
Specifically, in the step 4), the volume ratio of cyclohexane to ethanol is 0.5-2: 1. the centrifugation speed is preferably 11000 rpm, and the centrifugation time is preferably 10 min. The Pt-Zn nanocrystalline is loaded on the Ketjen black, and specifically comprises the following components: uniformly mixing the platinum-zinc nanocrystals, ketjen black and deionized water, transferring the mixture into a high-pressure reaction kettle, sealing the reaction kettle, keeping the reaction kettle at the temperature of 180 ℃ and 200 ℃ for 8-10h, naturally cooling the reaction kettle to room temperature, and centrifugally collecting and drying the mixture to obtain the nano-composite material.
The invention provides a preparation method of the novel fuel cell low platinum alloy catalyst prepared by the preparation method.
The invention also provides the application of the novel fuel cell low platinum alloy catalyst in a proton exchange membrane fuel cell.
As the proton exchange membrane fuel cell inevitably dissolves basic metal in the operation process, the generated metal cations generate aggressive OH free radicals through substituting protons and catalyzing Fenton reaction, thereby causing the degradation of the proton exchange membrane. Among these transition metal elements, Zn has a good oxidation resistance, and can effectively inhibit the fenton reaction, thereby improving the stability of the Pt-based catalyst. The catalytic reaction usually takes place at the surface of the catalyst, and the surface structure therefore plays a crucial role in the performance of the catalyst. Previous studies also give clear images of the sensitivity of the ORR structure and reveal the surface adsorption behavior of oxygen species, with the step surface being more active than the low index plane. Another important strategy to improve catalytic activity is to tailor metal nanocrystals with high index facets. Atoms at the steps, steps and kinks of the high-index nanocrystal can be used as additional catalytic active centers, which is beneficial to catalysis.
Based on the method, the novel low-platinum alloy catalyst for the fuel cell is prepared by a simple and universal method under mild conditions, and has high acidic ORR activity and stability. Both experiments and theoretical calculation show that the introduction of Zn adjusts the electronic structure of the Pt surface, thereby shortening the length of Pt-Pt bonds and reducing the adsorption energy of OH/O on the Pt surface. Assembled from the catalystH of (A) to (B)2-O2The fuel cell provides about 1449 mW cm-2The peak power density is higher than that of Pt/C catalyst. This is the highest performance of fuel cells based on Pt-Zn catalysts.
The concave platinum-zinc nanocubes with high-index crystal face platinum skin are prepared by a solvothermal method. The formation of such high index Pt-Zn catalysts is based on the reduction capability of aldehyde groups in a solvothermal reaction. The concave nanocube shape provides more active surface structures such as atomic steps and edges, and also improves platinum utilization. The test results show that: Pt-Zn/KB shows significant acidic ORR activity and expected stability. Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
1) the invention provides a synthetic route for preparing a novel fuel cell low-platinum alloy catalyst material. The target product Pt-Zn/KB is prepared by a simple hydrothermal method;
2) the preparation method is simple in preparation process and easy for batch preparation. Meanwhile, the novel low platinum alloy catalyst material for the fuel cell, which is obtained by the invention, has excellent electrochemical performance;
3) the novel fuel cell low-platinum alloy catalyst material prepared by the invention can improve the electronic structure of the Pt surface and enhance the catalytic performance.

And it can be seen from FIG. 5(b) that the half-wave potential (0.914V) of the catalyst Pt-Zn/KB-1 is much higher than that of the material prepared in comparative example 1 (0.751V) and comparative example 2 (0.872V) and commercial Pt/C (20%) (0.88V).

The oxygen reduction reaction test adopts a three-electrode test system, namely a platinum sheet is used as a counter electrode, Ag/AgCl is used as a reference electrode, a glassy carbon electrode is used as a working electrode, and the performance is tested by adopting the three-electrode system. Specifically, the catalyst materials prepared in example 1, comparative example 2 and comparative example 3 were supported on a glassy carbon electrode. The method for experimental loading of catalyst material onto a glassy carbon electrode was: taking a 5.0 mg catalyst sample, and dissolving the catalyst sample in a solution prepared from 336.0 mu L ethanol, 144.0 mu L deionized water and 20 mu L naphthol; mixing the prepared solution with ultrasound for 30min, and transferringAfter 5.0 mu L of mixed solution is measured by a liquid gun, the mixed solution is vertically dripped on a glassy carbon electrode, and the glassy carbon electrode can be used as a working electrode after being naturally dried.

The ink was then sprayed onto a Nafion 211 membrane at 70 ℃. Fuel cell testing was performed in a single cell using a commercial fuel cell testing system (Scribner 850e, cluster next energy limited). The MEA is sandwiched between two graphite plates with single serpentine flow channels. The cell was operated at 80 ℃ and a backpressure of 150 kPa. Pure hydrogen and air/oxygen at 100% relative humidity were supplied to the anode and cathode at gas flow rates of 500-.

Namely, the invention manufactures high-index nano-crystals, and uniformly dispersed small-size Pt metal nano-particles (3-5 nm) are prepared by using atoms at steps, platforms and kinks as active sites. GranulesThe reduction of the diameter enables the catalyst to expose more active surface beneficial to catalysis, so that the Pt-Zn/KB-1 catalyst shows higher half-wave potential in the ORR process and the half-wave potential is reduced by 7mV after 30000 cycles, which shows that the catalyst has high-efficiency catalysis and stability performance in the ORR reaction process. The peak power density of the assembled proton exchange membrane fuel cell is 1449.48mW cm-2The performance is superior to that of commercial Pt/C catalysts.
