Abstract

An atomic layer deposition method for manufacturing a platinum-based alloy catalyst includes applying a support in a reactor and depositing an alloy of platinum and a non-platinum metal on the support through a super cycle comprising a first sub-cycle and a second sub-cycle.

First claim

1 . A method for manufacturing an alloy catalyst comprising:
applying a support in a reactor; and depositing an alloy of platinum and a non-platinum metal on the support through a super cycle comprising a first sub-cycle and a second sub-cycle; wherein the first sub-cycle comprises: injecting a platinum precursor into the reactor so that the platinum precursor is adsorbed onto the support; injecting a first purge gas into the reactor; depositing platinum on the support by injecting a reaction gas into the reactor; and injecting a second purge gas into the reactor, and wherein the second sub-cycle comprises: injecting a non-platinum metal precursor into the reactor so that the non-platinum metal is adsorbed onto the support; injecting a third purge gas into the reactor; depositing the non-platinum metal on the support by injecting a reaction gas into the reactor; and injecting a fourth purge gas into the reactor.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the reactor comprises a fluidized bed reactor or a rotary reactor.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the support comprises at least one of a carbon-based support, a metal oxide-based support or any combination thereof.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the platinum precursor comprises at least one of trimethyl(methylcyclopentadienyl) platinum(IV) (MeCpPtMe 3 ), platinum(II) bis(acetylacetonate) (Pt(acac) 2 ), [(1,2,5,6-η)-1,5-hexadiene]dimethyl platinum(II) (HDMP), dimethyl(N,N-dimethyl-3-butene-1-amine-N) platinum (DDAP) or any combination thereof.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the reaction gas comprises at least one of oxygen (O 2 ), ozone (O 3 ), air, hydrogen (H 2 ), oxygen plasma (O 2 plasma) or any combination thereof.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the depositing of the platinum on the support is performed by a powder atomic layer deposition method.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first purge gas, the second purge gas, the third purge gas and the fourth purge gas each comprises at least one of argon (Ar), helium (He), nitrogen (N 2 ) or any combination thereof.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the non-platinum metal comprises at least one of palladium (Pd), gold (Au), silver (Ag), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), molybdenum (Mo), ruthenium (Ru), rhodium (Rh), tungsten (W), iridium (Ir) or any combination thereof.

9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the depositing of the non-platinum metal on the support is performed by a powder atomic layer deposition method.

10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the support is maintained in a fluidized state by continuously injecting gas into the reactor while performing the super cycle.

11 . The method of claim 1 , wherein in the super cycle, the first sub-cycle is performed 2 to 30 times and then the second sub-cycle is performed 1 to 3 times; or
the second sub-cycle is performed 1 to 3 times and then the first sub-cycle is performed 2 to 30 times.

12 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the super cycle is repeatedly performed 1 to 10 times.

13 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the super cycle is performed in a temperature of 100° C. to 400° C.

14 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises heat treating a resultant of the super cycle.

15 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the heat treating is performed in a gas atmosphere comprising at least one of hydrogen (H 2 ), ammonia (NH 3 ), nitrogen (N 2 ), argon (Ar) or any combination thereof.

16 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the heat treating is performed in a temperature of 400° C. to 1,100° C.

17 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the alloy catalyst comprises:
75 to 85 at % of the platinum; and 15 to 25 at % of the non-platinum metal.
