摘要: 通过单电池放电试验, 考察了直接甲醇燃料电池(DMFC)电催化剂的性能衰减情况. 透射电镜(TEM)和X射线衍射分析(XRD)结果表明, 放电试验后阳极电催化剂的粒径变化很小, 而阴极电催化剂的粒径则显著增大. DMFC内部的液相环境是促使Pt粒子聚结的主要原因. 阳极催化剂中Ru的存在抑制了Pt粒子的生长. 阳极和阴极电催化剂的电化学表面积(ECSA)在放电后都有所降低, 且下降幅度均高于比表面积(SSA)的下降幅度. 放电过程中阳极电催化剂发生了Ru的流失.

Abstract: A discharge test was conducted to evaluate the degradation of the performance of electrocatalysts in direct methanol fuel cells(DMFCs). The results of transmission electron microscopy(TEM) and X-ray diffraction(XRD) analyses show that after the test, the mean particle size of the anode electrocatalyst did not change, while that of the cathode electrocatalyst increased remarkably. The main reason for the sintering of electrocatalysts is the existence of liquids. Amorphous Ru species in the anode catalyst inhibit the growing of Pt crystallites. The electrochemical surface area(ECSA) decreased after the discharge test, with a degree higher than the specific surface area(SSA), both for the anode and the cathode. Part of ruthenium was lost from the anode electrocatalyst during the discharge test.
