摘要: 将聚苯胺/改性木质素磺酸钠复合材料在不同炭化温度下进行处理得到活性炭材料,利用红外光谱、拉曼光谱、比表面积分析和扫描电镜等手段对其结构和表面性质进行了表征。通过液相还原方法将Pd纳米颗粒负载在所制备的活性炭材料上,获得Pd/C催化剂用于甲酸氧化,并采用X射线衍射、透射电镜和电化学测试等方法对该Pd/C催化剂进行表征。结果表明,以800℃下炭化得到的活性炭材料为载体所制备的Pd-AC800催化剂其催化性能最优;Pd粒径为5.4 nm,电化学活性面积为53.78 m2/g。由于在该催化剂上甲酸氧化通过直接途径进行,Pd-AC800可用作直接甲酸燃料电池的催化剂。Abstract: Activated carbons (AC) were obtained through carbonization of polyaniline and modified lignosulfonate composite (PAn-MLS) under different temperatures; they are characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Raman spectroscopy, nitrogen sorption and scanning electron microscope (SEM). With these carbon materials as the support, a series of Pd-AC catalysts for the oxidation of formic acid were prepared by liquid phase reduction and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and electrochemical analysis. The results show that with the activated carbon prepared at 800℃ (AC800) as the support, the Pd-AC800 catalyst obtained performs best in the oxidation of formic acid; the palladium particles have an average size of 5.4 nm and the electro-active surface area reaches 53.78 m2/g. As the oxidation of formic acid over Pd-AC800 is realized through direct pathway rather than CO pathway, Pd-AC800 may be considered as a potential electrode material in direct formic acid fuel cells (DFAFC).
