Description

Anti-reversal catalyst, preparation method thereof and fuel cell
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of fuel cells, and relates to an anti-reversal catalyst, a preparation method thereof and a fuel cell.
Background
In recent years, the field of clean energy is being vigorously developed, and a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) is a device capable of directly converting chemical energy into electric energy, and has attracted much attention in the field of clean energy due to its advantages of no pollution, high energy conversion efficiency, rapid start at room temperature, etc., but the durability and cost of PEMFC are still barriers to large-scale commercialization. The membrane electrode, which is a key component of PEMFCs, has properties that largely determine the performance of the cell, and the importance of the catalyst, which serves as the basis of the membrane electrode, is conceivable. At present, a catalytic layer of a membrane electrode is mainly formed by spraying Pt/C catalyst and Nafion ionomer on a proton exchange membrane, is called as 'CCM', and is shaped like a sandwich structure. The catalyst layer is the main reaction site of hydrogen and oxygen, hydrogen is oxidized in the anode catalyst layer to generate protons and electrons, and the protons are transferred to the cathode through the proton exchange membrane so as to be able to react with oxygen.
When the PEMFC operates under a complicated working condition, such as rapid load change, start/stop, low-temperature start, etc., the problem of insufficient fuel may occur, and at this time, the catalytic layer cannot perform hydrogen oxidation reaction to provide protons and electrons, and other reactions such as water electrolysis and carbon corrosion reaction are required to maintain charge balance, so that the anode potential is higher than the cathode, the battery voltage has a negative value, and the voltage is continuously reduced, which is "reverse polarity". The opposite pole of the battery can seriously damage the catalytic layer and the gas diffusion layer, thereby affecting the performance and durability of the battery and causing safety accidents in serious cases.
At present, researchers monitor the battery condition through a system control strategy to prevent the occurrence of reverse polarity; however, such system control strategies add complexity and cost to the battery system, and both of these strategies "palliative and non-radical" have the phenomenon of pole reversal already occurring when the battery finds an abnormality. Therefore, researchers have conducted anti-reversal studies on materials such as using a non-carbon support, introducing an electrolytic water catalyst into a catalytic layer, and the like.
CN111082078A discloses a preparation method of a high-performance and anti-reverse-polarity membrane electrode assembly, which adds an electrolyzed water catalyst into a catalyst slurry, and sprays the catalyst slurry onto a proton exchange membrane, so as to effectively alleviate the damage caused by reverse polarity. However, the direct addition of catalyst particles easily causes agglomeration, masking the active sites of Pt. CN111029599A discloses a fuel cell anti-reversal catalyst and a preparation method thereof, wherein the catalyst is iridium oxide composite Ni-doped titanium dioxide, the anti-reversal additive can prolong the electrolytic water reaction time during reversal, but the performance of the cell can be affected due to poor conductivity of metal oxide, and severe mass transfer polarization occurs under high electric density. In addition, the preparation process of the catalyst is complicated, hydrogen is required to be reduced at high temperature, and certain potential safety hazard exists.
Therefore, it is highly desirable to provide a fuel cell anti-reversal catalyst with good conductivity, stability and durability, so as to improve the safety performance of the fuel cell.

TABLE 1
Figure BDA0003642438160000131
Figure BDA0003642438160000141
As can be seen from the above examples 1 to 11, the present invention uses PtRu alloy as an active component and TiN-TiO 2 As a carrier to obtain the anti-reversal catalystThe Ru element with specific content can improve the integral electrolytic water performance of the catalyst, and TiN grows on TiO in situ 2 The surface and the two have synergistic effect to improve the conductivity and stability of the catalyst, effectively get rid of the carbon corrosion caused by the reversal of the fuel cell, thereby protecting the structure and performance of the catalyst layer of the fuel cell, improving the durability of the fuel cell, and after the cell is reversed for 50 times, the battery has 1000mA cm -2 The voltage attenuation is not more than 4.60%, and the safety performance of the battery is improved.
FIG. 4 shows the anti-reversal catalyst Pt of example 1 2 Ru 1 /TiN-TiO 2 I-V curves before and after 50 times of antipolarization, and as can be seen from the curves before and after 50 times of antipolarization in FIG. 4, 1000mA cm after 50 times of antipolarization -2 The voltage is only attenuated by 0.88%, which shows that the anti-reversal catalyst provided by the invention can effectively reduce the damage of frequent reversal on the performance of the fuel cell.
It is understood from the comparison between example 1 and examples 4 to 5 and comparative example 2 that the most suitable ratio range of Pt and Ru in the PtRu alloy of the anti-reversal catalyst affects the catalytic performance of the fuel cell itself when the Ru content is large, affects the anti-reversal effect when the Ru content is small, the ratio of Pt and Ru in example 4 is large, the ratio of Pt and Ru in comparative example 2 is too large, resulting in a decrease in the anti-reversal effect of the fuel cell, and the ratio of Pt and Ru in example 5 is small, affecting the output performance of the fuel cell itself, decreasing the initial voltage, and thus, the catalyst combination property of example 1 is the best.
As can be seen from the comparison of example 1 with examples 6 to 7, TiN and TiO in the anti-reversal catalyst of the present invention 2 There is the most suitable ratio when TiN and TiO 2 When the mass ratio of (1) to (0.2-5), both conductivity and stability can be achieved; TiO in example 6 2 The content of (A) is too large, which affects the conductivity of the catalyst and thus lowers the output performance of the fuel cell, while the content of TiN in example 7 affects the oxidation resistance of the catalyst and thus the voltage attenuation of example 7 is 3.92%, which is higher than that of example 1; thus, example 1 used appropriate amounts of TiN and TiO 2 Further improves the initial electricity of the catalystCompressive and anti-reversal capabilities.
As can be seen from a comparison of example 1 with examples 8 to 9, the invention employs appropriate amounts of PtRu alloy and TiN-TiO 2 The carrier can further improve the hydrogen oxidation activity and the anti-reversal capacity of the catalyst; in example 8, the PtRu alloy content is low, and although the anti-reversal capability is good, the initial performance of the fuel cell is affected due to the decrease in the mass fraction of Pt, and in example 9, the PtRu alloy content is high, so that the mass fraction of Pt is high, the cost is increased, and the initial performance of the fuel cell is not effectively improved due to the serious catalyst agglomeration. Therefore, the initial performance and the anti-reversal performance of the battery of example 1 were better.
As can be seen from the comparison between example 1 and examples 10-11, the cell initial performance and the anti-reversal performance of the anti-reversal catalyst prepared in the invention when the nitridation temperature is 600-1200 ℃, and the lower nitridation temperature in example 10 can cause TiO 2 The conversion to TiN phase was not successful and the conductivity was poor. Example 11 the higher nitridation temperature resulted in TiO 2 All converted into TiN phase, and the stability is sharply reduced along with the improvement of the conductivity. Thus, the initial performance and the anti-reversal performance of the battery of example 1 were better than those of examples 10 to 11.
FIG. 5 shows Pt of comparative example 1 3 Ru 1 I-V curves of the/C catalyst before and after 50 times of antipolarization resistance, as can be seen from the curves before and after FIG. 5, 1000mA cm after 50 times of antipolarization -2 The voltage was attenuated by 9.0%, which is much higher than 0.88% in example 1 of the present invention, and the attenuation amount was much higher than that in example 2 of the present invention at the same ratio of Pt and Ru, and therefore, carbon corrosion during the reverse polarity could not be effectively prevented and the durability and safety of the fuel cell could not be improved by preparing the catalyst using the conventional carbon support.
As can be seen from the comparison of example 1 with comparative example 3, TiN-TiO was prepared by the sol-gel method and the in-situ nitrogen reduction method of the present invention 2 The carrier is matched with a microwave-assisted polyol method to load the PtRu alloy, so that the prepared anti-reversal catalyst has better initial performance and anti-reversal performance of the battery; in comparative example 3, T is mixed by conventional physical mixing methodiN and TiO 2 Grinding and mixing the two, and synthesizing the two in situ to prepare the TiN-TiO 2 Poor morphology of the support, TiO 2 And TiN, the aggregation is serious, the specific surface area is small, the ability of loading the PtRu alloy is reduced, and the stability of the catalyst is also affected to a certain extent, so that the initial performance and the anti-reversal performance of the battery of example 1 are better than those of comparative example 3.
The above description is only for the specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and it should be understood by those skilled in the art that any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope of the present invention are within the protection scope and the disclosure of the present invention.
