The preparation of the carbon nanoshell stack effectively increases the surface area of the catalyst layer, enhancing catalyst dispersion and utilization. Carbonization at 390℃ ensures complete carbonization of glucose while retaining the PTFE in the carbon paper, facilitating better spatial distribution of the platinum catalyst. Under a reduction reaction temperature of 50°C, a duration of 6 hours, and a precursor concentration of 1 mM H2PtCl6·(H2O)6, a highly dispersed platinum nanoparticle catalyst with an average particle size of 3.43 nm can be obtained. Electrochemical surface area (ECSA) testing by cyclic voltammetry yields an MSECSA of 10.19 m2/gpt for the Pt nanoparticles decorated carbon nanoshell stack as catalyst layers. Assembling the low temperature fuel cell by drop-casting a Nafion thin film with a filling density of 25% on the catalyst layer achieves a current density of 406 mA/cm² at 0.6 V, indicating significant development potential. The macropores in the carbon nanoshell stack catalyst layer allow effective Nafion coverage on the sphere surface, and the appropriate drop-casting concentration ensures gas conduction channels remain between the spheres. Pt nanoparticles-decorated carbon nanoshell stack as catalyst layers exhibits excellent gas conduction properties and catalyst utilization. The drop-casted Nafion thin film improves the contact between the catalyst layer and the proton exchange membrane, forming a good proton conduction channel, effectively increasing the three-phase boundary and enhancing fuel cell performance.
