Description

Preparation method and application of heterostructure ruthenium cobalt boron-based oxide catalyst
Technical Field

Background
The fuel cell is a high-efficiency clean electrochemical generating device for converting chemical energy of fuel such as hydrogen, methanol, ethanol, hydrocarbon, borohydride and the like into electric energy, and has the advantages of high efficiency, environmental friendliness and the like. Fuel cells are considered to be the most promising energy conversion strategy for achieving sustainable development of energy.
At present, fuel cell technology has been greatly developed, however, since most of the catalysts are composed of noble metals, especially Pt metals, the large-scale application of fuel cells is still limited due to the problems of high price, limited reserves of noble metals and the like. On the way of commercialization of low-temperature fuel cells such as Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFC), methanol fuel cells (DMFC), and borohydride fuel cells (DBFC), durability and cost of fuel cells are two major challenges of whether fuel cells can be developed and commercialized for a long time, so that by reducing the noble metal content in an electrode assembly, the cost of the cells can be directly reduced, but the cell performance and long-term stability are affected due to the reduction of the content.
In recent years, catalyst cost is reduced and catalyst performance is improved mainly by the following two ways: (1) developing a platinum alloy catalyst; (2) development of non-platinum electrocatalysts; while the above approach can achieve cost and performance advantages, the following problems exist: currently, for the synthesis of such fuel cell catalysts, mainly conventional chemical synthesis methods or high temperature treatments are adopted, for example, document Molten salt assisted to synthesize molybdenume ruthenium boride for hydrogen generation in wide pH range mentions that molybdenum pentachloride, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, amorphous boron powder and ruthenium trichloride are mixed together by a melting method, ground until they become powder, then the above powder is placed in a tube furnace, and after heating, the obtained nanomaterial Mo-Ru-B is obtained. Document Ultrafine amorphous Co-W-B alloy as the anode catalyst for a direct borohydride fuThe superfine amorphous Co-W-B alloy is prepared by adopting a chemical reduction method in the el cell. By chemical reduction of cobalt chloride (CoCl) with potassium borohydride solution 2 ) And sodium tungstate (Na) 2 WO 4 ) And (5) synthesizing. To CoCl of different volumes 2 And Na (Na) 2 WO 4 The solutions were mixed together to adjust the tungsten content of the sample. KBH was then stirred magnetically 4 Dropwise adding KOH solution into the mixed solution, adding potassium borohydride to release hydrogen, stirring to obtain black precipitate, filtering and washing with distilled water to obtain Co-W-B; patent CN 105702971A describes a core-shell gold@cobalt-boron catalyst for fuel cells. Preparing a mixed solution of cobalt salt and gold salt, dissolving borohydride in deionized water to prepare a borohydride solution, adding hydroxide into the borohydride solution, adding the borohydride-hydroxide mixed solution into the mixed solution of cobalt salt and gold salt at a certain speed, and continuously stirring and filtering the reaction material to obtain a precipitate after no gas is generated in the reaction, thus obtaining the core-shell type gold@cobalt-boron catalyst. Patent CN201210120922.7 describes a carbon-supported core-shell type copper-palladium-platinum catalyst for fuel cells and a preparation method thereof. The method adopts a two-step reduction method, namely, firstly reducing low-activity metal and then reducing active noble metal, and the noble metal is deposited on the surface of non-noble metal by controlling the temperature and the pH value of the reaction, and the dealloying step is assisted, so that the core-shell catalyst is prepared.
The methods have the problems of complex synthesis process, high energy consumption and difficult realization of large-scale production in the long term.
