It is of great significance to reduce the amount of platinum for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells. In this work, a copper single atom coordinated by nitrogen doped carbon nanotubes is employed as a support for the deposition of platinum nanoparticles (Pt/Cu-SAC), according to the prediction of the density functional theory calculation, which reveals the ORR activity of Pt/Cu-SAC should be improved in comparison to that of Pt/C due to the weaker adsorption of oxygen. The prepared Pt/Cu-SAC exhibits more promising ORR activity than the commercial Pt/C due to the synergetic effect of Cu-SAC on the Pt particles. Furthermore, the fuel cell based on Pt/Cu-SAC with a cathode Pt loading of 0.025 mg cm–2 exhibits a peak power density of 526 mW cm–2, which is quite similar to that obtained with the commercial Pt/C with a cathode Pt loading of 0.1 mg cm–2. The Pt/Cu-SAC paves the way to design low-Pt cathode catalysts for the polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells.

原子分散的Cu–N–C作为燃料电池低铂负载阴极催化剂的有前途的支持

对于聚合物电解质膜燃料电池中的氧还原反应(ORR),减少铂的量具有重要意义。在这项工作中,根据密度泛函理论计算的预测,采用了一个由氮掺杂的碳纳米管配位的铜单原子作为铂纳米颗粒(Pt / Cu-SAC)沉积的载体。与Pt / C相比,由于氧气的吸收较弱,因此应改善Pt / Cu-SAC。由于Cu-SAC对Pt颗粒的协同作用,所制备的Pt / Cu-SAC比市售Pt / C表现出更有希望的ORR活性。此外,基于Pt / Cu-SAC的燃料电池具有0.025 mg cm –2的阴极Pt负载,其峰值功率密度为526 mW cm –2,这与市售Pt / C阴极负载Pt / C为0.1 mg cm –2所获得的非常相似。Pt / Cu-SAC为设计用于聚合​​物电解质膜燃料电池的低Pt阴极催化剂铺平了道路。
