PtCo is an alloy catalyst with relatively good development prospect. However, the existing PtCo needs to elute Co in the preparation process, which results in complex process and uncontrollable Co content.
The inventor aims to solve the problems that the preparation of PtCo is complex and the Co content is uncontrollable at present. And a Co precursor and Pt colloid are deposited on a Pt/C raw material catalyst loaded with Pt by adopting a coprecipitation method under an alkaline condition, then a dynamic energy barrier of ordered rearrangement of atoms in a solid phase is overcome by adopting heat treatment, so that a platinum-rich alloy catalyst with higher alloying degree is formed, elution is not needed in the preparation process, and the problems of complex preparation of PtCo and uncontrollable Co content at present are solved.
Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for preparing a platinum cobalt alloy catalyst, including:
s1, obtaining the Pt/C raw material catalyst loaded with Pt.
The Pt/C raw material catalyst loaded with Pt can be obtained by a commercially available and prepared method, and the preparation method of the Pt/C raw material catalyst loaded with Pt includes a microwave method and an impregnation method.
The following is a specific explanation of the impregnation method: mixing a carbon carrier and a Pt precursor in a solvent, and then carrying out solid-liquid separation to obtain powder; and (3) carrying out reduction treatment on the powder to obtain the Pt/C raw material catalyst loaded with Pt.
Among these, the carbon supports include carbon blacks such as the high ratio carbon blacks of EC300J, EC600J, BP 2000. The Pt precursor includes at least one of chloroplatinic acid, platinum tetrachloride, and platinum acetylacetonate. Ball milling is generally used during mixing so as to be more uniform, and the rotational speed of the ball milling can be 500-800 rpm and the duration of the ball milling can be 2-4 hours. The solid-liquid separation mode is freeze-drying, and compared with the vacuum drying mode, the freeze-drying mode can avoid the phenomenon that Pt precursors are separated out along with evaporation of water in a material phase, so that the Pt particle size distribution on a carrier is uneven; illustratively, the lyophilization process includes: and (3) quickly transferring the mixed materials into a glass surface dish for quick pre-freezing, and then transferring the pre-frozen materials into a freeze dryer for freeze drying, wherein the pre-freezing mode can be low-temperature refrigerator pre-freezing, dry ice pre-freezing or liquid nitrogen pre-freezing and the like. The temperature of the reduction treatment is 100-200 ℃; the reduction treatment time is 2-4 hours, the reduction atmosphere is a mixed gas of nitrogen and hydrogen, the volume ratio of the hydrogen to the nitrogen in the mixed gas is 10/200-100/300, the higher the reduction temperature is, the higher the hydrogen concentration is, the larger the generated Pt particle size is, the larger the Pt particles are, the fewer sites provided for PtCo deposition are at the later stage, the larger the synthesized PtCo particle size is, and the performance of the catalyst is finally influenced; conversely, the lower the reduction temperature, the lower the hydrogen concentration, the more sites are provided for PtCo deposition in the later stage, so that more sites are provided for Co deposition, the Co deposition is avoided, and the final synthesized catalyst is loaded with more Pt particles and partial PtCo alloy on a carrier, and can influence the overall performance of the catalyst. By controlling the reduction temperature, the deposition sites are controlled in a suitable range, which is advantageous for the performance of the final catalyst.
In some embodiments, the Pt loading is 5% -20% by mass of the Pt/C feedstock catalyst loaded with Pt. The control of the Pt loading can enable the Pt/C raw material catalyst to have sufficient nucleation sites, and meanwhile, the amount of Pt which is deposited later as a shell is not affected, so that Co is not easy to remove.
S2, depositing a Co precursor and Pt colloid to a Pt/C raw material catalyst loaded with Pt under an alkaline condition to obtain an intermediate.
The Pt colloid may be obtained commercially or prepared, and in some embodiments, the pH of the Pt colloid is 10-13. The Pt colloid is made to be alkaline, so that alkaline conditions required by Co deposition come from the Pt colloid, and in the preparation process, the Co-deposition can be realized by adopting a mode of dropwise adding and mixing the Pt colloid, so that the deposition of the Pt colloid and the Pt colloid at a proper speed is realized, and the formation of a structure that Co is close to the inner side and Pt is close to the outer side is facilitated. The particle size of the Pt colloid is less than 2nm. Controlling the particle size of the Pt colloid facilitates the subsequent formation of a denser shell.
The Pt colloid described above was obtained in the manner of preparation as follows for illustration: the preparation method of the Pt colloid comprises the following steps: alcohol and Pt precursor are mixed in alkali solution and then reduced by microwave to obtain Pt colloid.
Wherein, the mass ratio of the alcohol, the Pt precursor and the alkali solution is as follows: (100-150): (0.75-1): (0.5-0.7); the alcohol comprises at least one of ethylene glycol, glycerol and methanol; the Pt precursor comprises at least one of chloroplatinic acid, platinum tetrachloride and platinum acetylacetonate; the alkali solution comprises NaOH solution and Na solution 2 CO 3 At least one of a solution and a KOH solution; the power of microwave reduction is 800-3000W; the microwave reduction time is 0.5-10 min.
In some embodiments, depositing a Co precursor and a Pt colloid to a Pt/C feedstock catalyst loaded with Pt under alkaline conditions, resulting in an intermediate comprising: s2.1, dispersing a Co precursor and a Pt/C raw material catalyst loaded with Pt in a solvent to obtain a dispersion liquid; s2.2, dropwise adding alkaline Pt colloid into the dispersion liquid to realize the deposition of the Co precursor and the Pt colloid on the Pt/C raw material catalyst loaded with Pt, so as to obtain an intermediate. The Co-deposition is realized by adopting a mode of dropwise adding and mixing Pt colloid, so that the two are precipitated at a proper speed, and a structure that Co is close to the inner side and Pt is close to the outer side is formed.
Specifically, in this embodiment, the Pt/C raw material catalyst loaded with Pt is dispersed in an aqueous solution, and a required Co precursor is added, so that the emulsification and dispersion are uniform, and the emulsification duration can be 30-120 min; after emulsification is completed, placing the mixture in a water bath, magnetically stirring the mixture at a magnetic stirring speed of 200-500 rpm, slowly dripping Pt colloid, and stirring the mixture for 4-10 hours after all dripping is completed; and separating filtrate, cleaning, and vacuum drying at 80 ℃ for 8-10h to obtain an intermediate.
Further, the dropping speed of the Pt colloid is 5-10 ml/min. By controlling the dropping speed of the Pt colloid, the deposition speed is controlled, and a structure that Co is close to the inner side and Pt is close to the outer side is formed.
In some embodiments, the molar ratio of Pt to Co in the intermediate is (3-5): 1. controlling the mole ratio of Pt and Co on the intermediate is beneficial to improving the degree of alloying of Co.
S3, performing heat treatment on the intermediate to obtain the platinum-cobalt alloy catalyst.
Specifically, in this embodiment, the intermediate is loaded into a porcelain boat, and N is introduced before reduction in the tube furnace temperature zone 2 Displacing for 20-60min to remove air, and maintaining at 300-400deg.C for 1-3 hr under the atmosphere of H 2 /N 2 :10/200-100/300 to provide a reducing environment for the heat treatment. After N 2 In the atmosphere, the temperature is raised to 600-850 ℃ at a temperature rising rate of 2-15 ℃ so as to prevent the growth of alloy particles, and finally H is introduced 2 : preserving heat for 2-4h at 5-20ml/min to form a compact platinum-rich structure, and naturally cooling to room temperature.
In some embodiments, the temperature of the heat treatment is 600-850 ℃; the atmosphere of the heat treatment is a reducing atmosphere; the ratio of the reducing gas in the reducing atmosphere is 1/21-1/4; the reducing atmosphere is a mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen. The temperature of the heat treatment process and the ratio of the reducing gas in the reducing atmosphere are controlled, so that the alloying degree is improved.
Based on the same inventive concept, the embodiment of the application also provides a catalyst, which is prepared by adopting the preparation method of the catalyst.
The catalyst is prepared based on the method, specific steps of the method can refer to the embodiment, and as the catalyst adopts part or all of the technical schemes of the embodiment, the catalyst has at least all of the beneficial effects brought by the technical schemes of the embodiment, and the detailed description is omitted.

Also, when the Pt loading is less than 5%, the grain size of the formed alloy is large, and the inventors analyzed that the cause thereof may be caused by too few nucleation sites. As can be seen from the comparison of examples 7 to 10, the synthetic catalyst has a good ORR activity when the Pt colloid dropping rate is 5-10 ml/min during the co-deposition process. The inventor analyzes that the reason may be that when the dropping rate of the Pt colloid is less than 5ml/min, part of the Pt colloid is settled into Pt particles preferentially, the Pt layer on the outer alloy layer is not compact enough, and Co is easy to dissolve out; while when the Pt colloid dropping rate is more than 10ml/min, co is accelerated 2+ Is not easy to grow along the Pt nucleation sites; the Pt-rich structure with Co inside and Pt (colloidal deposition) outside is not easily formed, resulting in poor ORR activity of the synthesized catalyst.
The foregoing is only a specific embodiment of the application to enable those skilled in the art to understand or practice the application. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the generic principles defined herein may be applied to other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the application. Thus, the present application is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown herein but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
