Abstract: Nano rare earth alloy was prepared by a supersonic co-precipitation and low temprature reduction synthesis method. The research of XRD, SEM, TEM indicates that the particle size of the sample powder is about 20nm, and the test results by PEMFC electrochemistry workstation show that the sample powder modified by Pt has good electrocatalytic activity due to its good hydrogen transfer power.

Key words: nano rare earth alloy, supersonic coprecipitation, anode catalyst, PEMFC
