Abstract
A method for preparing a support for an electrode catalyst including forming first and second polymer layers having charges different from each other on a surface of a carbon support and carbonizing the result, wherein the polymers included in the first and the second polymer layers are an aromatic compound including a heteroatom, and the first or the second polymer includes a pyridine group.
Claims5
A method for preparing a support for an electrode catalyst comprising:
- preparing a carbon support;
- forming a first polymer layer on a surface of the carbon support, said first polymer layer comprising a first polymer having a charge;
- forming a second polymer layer on the first polymer layer, said second polymer layer comprising a second polymer having a charge which is opposite to the charge of the first polymer;
- and
- carbonizing the first polymer layer and the second polymer layer,
- wherein the first polymer and the second polymer independently comprise an aromatic compound including a heteroatom, and
- the first polymer or the second polymer comprises a pyridine group,
- wherein the first polymer is a cationic polymer, and the second polymer is an anionic polymer,
- wherein the forming of the first polymer layer is carried out by coating a solution comprising the first polymer and a solvent on the surface of the carbon support, and the solution further includes at least one acid among hydrochloric acid, nitric acid and sulfuric acid, and
- wherein the carbonizing of the first polymer layer and the second polymer layer is carried out for 30 minutes to 2 hours at a temperature of 800° C. to 2,000° C. under an inert gas atmosphere.
