Abstract

The widespread applications of fuel cell depend on the reasonable designment of excellent catalysts that are easy to synthesize or abundant in reserves for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The application of precious metal catalysts (such as Pt, Pd etc.) is limited due to their scarcity of resources and high cost, while Ag/C catalysts have shown unique advantages in fuel cell and are expected to replace precious metal catalysts. In this paper, the fabrication of core–shell Ag@carbon dot (Ag@CD) with varying Ag loadings was achieved through a one-step method utilising CD as both a reducing agent and stabiliser, with the assistance of ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. Its suitable silver salt concentration and stable core–shell structure are the fundamental reasons for the excellent catalytic performance of ORR. The results show that the limiting current density (5.8 mA cm−2) of [email protected] catalyst is much greater than that of [email protected] and [email protected] catalysts. The Tafel slope of [email protected] catalyst is almost equivalent to those for Pt/C catalysts, suggesting the [email protected] exhibits an outstanding catalytic activity. The relative current density of [email protected] catalyst only decreased by 2.5 % after 50,000 s, suggesting that [email protected] exhibits more excellent stability for ORR, which is ascribing to the carbon layer coated outside the Ag nanoparticles (NPs).

以碳点为还原剂,在紫外线照射下制备核壳 Ag@CD 氧还原催化剂
燃料电池的广泛应用取决于能否合理选择易于合成或储量丰富的优良催化剂来进行氧还原反应(ORR)。贵金属催化剂(如铂、钯等)因资源稀缺、成本高昂而应用受限,而 Ag/C 催化剂在燃料电池中显示出独特的优势,有望取代贵金属催化剂。本文利用 CD 作为还原剂和稳定剂,在紫外线(UV)照射的辅助下,通过一步法制备了不同银负载量的核壳 Ag@carbon dot(Ag@CD)。合适的银盐浓度和稳定的核壳结构是其 ORR 催化性能优异的根本原因。结果表明,[email protected]催化剂的极限电流密度(5.8 mA cm-2)远大于[email protected]和[email protected]催化剂。[email protected]催化剂的塔菲尔斜率几乎与铂/铂催化剂相当,表明[email protected]催化剂具有出色的催化活性。50,000 秒后,[email protected]催化剂的相对电流密度仅下降了 2.5%,这表明[email protected]对 ORR 具有更出色的稳定性,这归功于银纳米粒子(NPs)外包覆的碳层。
