Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of direct alcohol fuel battery of under solar light irradiation, working, more particularly, the present invention relates to a kind of ultraviolet ray that utilizes in the sunlight, alleviate the alcohols anthracemia that the platinum catalyst surface takes place in electrochemical oxidation process, improve the method for direct alcohol fuel battery performance.
Background technology
Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFC) is considered to portable and compact power field one of the most promising technology.Though the PEMFC technology reaches its maturity, yet its commercialization also faces an insoluble problem, the i.e. production of hydrogen and accumulating.The accumulating of hydrogen mainly contains dual mode: the first, and gas cylinder storage hydrogen, shortcoming is that volumetric specific energy is low, to the equipment requirements height, and has certain potential safety hazard; The second, utilize reformation gas to give the fuel cell charging, this must make fuel cell system complicated, increases cost.
People attempt seeking other alternative fuel to overcome the technology barrier of PEMFC, and are wherein in the majority with organic molecule.For direct alcohol fuel battery, there is not the problem of accumulating difficulty in fuel, but reactivity is low and very easily make catalyst poisoning, causes the low of battery performance.
For example, the electrochemical oxidation of methyl alcohol on platinum catalyst is made of a plurality of elementary reactions:
Wherein reaction (5) is the rate controlling step of methanol electrooxidation.The one of the main reasons that performance of direct methanol fuel cells is lower than hydrogen fuel cell is that the intermediate product CO of methanol electrooxidation is adsorbed on the active sites of platinum, is difficult to further oxidized.In order to quicken the electrochemical oxidation of CO, the alloy catalyst that adopts platinum and other transition metal to form usually is as PtRu, PtSn.Can form hydroxyl groups (OH) on Ru and Sn positions of elements, the CO that is adsorbed on the platinum active sites is oxidized to CO under the effect of OH
2And H
2O, thus the absorption of elimination CO regains the platinum active sites.
Catalyst ability determining electrode reaction rate, Levy and Boudart find that the electronic structure on surface of WC and Pt is similar and make WC that the character the same with Pt be arranged, though the preparation method of WC affects the catalysis behavior of WC to a great extent, can't reach the degree that substitutes platinum, but the binary or the multi-element metal carbide of W and other metals show catalytic activity preferably.Result of study shows, is containing the binary metal carbide of tungsten [(W, M) C; M=V, Cr, Mn, Ni, Mo)] in, contain the catalytic activity maximum of the catalyst of Mo to methyl alcohol.Taking the ratio of Mo/ (W+Mo)=0.2, be that performance is best in all binary metal carbide catalyst at the catalyst performance of 700 ℃ of following carbonization gained, and corrosion current can be ignored.In acidic electrolysis bath, of short duration methanol oxidation electric current has only appearred for the WC catalyst that contains W merely, a few minutes after-current almost reduce to 0; But the WC catalyst that contains Mo still has electric current and can reach a stationary value in the methyl alcohol system that feeds after a very long time.Think that Mo may be some poisonous intermediate product of having removed methanol oxidation in such electrode reaction, or methanol oxidation is undertaken by the response path that another one does not have the toxicity intermediate product to generate.Various metals such as Ni, W, Mo, Fe are carried out finding in the research that combined preparation becomes various catalyst, though Ni catalyst, NiC catalyst and (Fe, W) C does not have catalytic activity to methyl alcohol, and corrosion current is very big, still (Ni, W) C, (Ni, Mo) C, (Ni, Mo, W) C has catalytic activity to methyl alcohol, and passivation takes place in solution.
Burstein etc. have proposed that (Ta, Ni) C is to the catalytic mechanism of methanol oxidation in the acid system.Think, (Ta, Ni) the C surface has suitable C and O outside unsettled, when methanol molecules was close, the C in the methyl alcohol adsorbed mutually with the O of catalyst surface, and the O in the methyl alcohol adsorbs mutually with the C of catalyst surface, form a ring molecule structure, electrochemical oxidation takes place this moment make ring rupture, electronics shifts to catalyst inside, and CO is arranged simultaneously
2Generate Deng product.As seen, the C of catalyst surface and O exist and interatomic distance suitably makes that might form annular absorption framework is its key that catalytic activity is arranged simultaneously.
Ultraviolet wavelength in the sunlight is shorter than visible light, but the electromagnetic radiation longer than X ray, ultraviolet wavelength is 10-400nm.Ultraviolet light can make the carbonyl such as the Mo (CO) of some carbonyl transistion metal compounds
6Or Fe (CO)
5On the CO desorption, obtain active surface.Find that under study for action under UV-irradiation, Pt is being oxidized to PtO than under the electronegative potential easily, the PtO that electronegative potential forms down has very big activity, generates CO with the intermediate product CO reaction of methanol electrooxidation on the active sites that is adsorbed on platinum
2Thereby, eliminated the toxic action of CO to platinum catalyst.
Summary of the invention
