Definitions

  • the invention relates to a catalyst comprising an alloy of at least two different metals, wherein at least one metal is a metal of the VIII. Subgroup of the Periodic Table of the Elements according to the old name.
  • the invention further relates to a process for the preparation of the catalyst and its use.
  • Fuel cells are energy converters that convert chemical energy into electrical energy. In a fuel cell, the principle of electrolysis is reversed.
  • the structure of the cells is basically the same for all types. They are generally composed of two electrode layers, an anode and a cathode, where the reactions take place, and an electrolyte between the two electrodes in the form of a membrane. This has three functions. It establishes the ionic contact, prevents the electronic contact and also ensures the separation of the media supplied to the electrode layers.
  • the electrode layers are usually supplied with gases or liquids, which are reacted in the context of a redox reaction.
  • the anode is supplied with hydrogen or methanol and the cathode with oxygen.
  • the electrode layers are usually contacted with electronically conductive gas distribution layers. These are e.g. Plates with a grid-like surface structure consisting of a system of fine channels. The overall reaction can be broken down into anodic and a cathodic sub-step in all fuel cells. With regard to the operating temperature, the electrolyte used and the possible fuels, there are differences between the different cell types.
  • GDE gas diffusion electrodes
  • the electrolyte Adjacent to the membrane are electrode layers in which there are generally catalytically active species that catalyze the reduction or oxidation reaction.
  • the electrolyte present in all fuel cells ensures ionic current transport in the fuel cell. He also has the task of forming a gas-tight barrier between the two electrodes. In addition, the electrolyte guarantees and supports a stable 3-phase layer in which the electrolytic reaction can take place.

  • cathode catalysts in DMFCs In addition to a high current density for the reduction of oxygen, further requirements are placed on cathode catalysts in DMFCs. In the operation of a DMFC, the diffusion of methanol across the membrane to the cathode (crossover), which occurs when a fuel cell is operated with organic, water-soluble fuels, is problematic.
  • the organic molecule at the catalytically active center of the cathode catalyst is burnt with oxygen directly to carbon dioxide and water.
  • the active sites occupied by the combustion of organic molecules are no longer available for the actual electrochemical reaction - the electrochemical reduction of oxygen - so that the total activity of the cathode layer decreases.
  • the direct oxidation of the organic molecule with oxygen lowers the electrochemical potential of the cathode layer and reduces the total voltage that can be tapped at the fuel cell. Since oxygen reduction and oxidation of the organic molecule occur at the same electrochemically active center, a so-called mixed potential is formed, which is lower than that of the oxygen reduction.
  • the driving force (EMF) is lowered, the total cell voltage and thus the power is lowered.
