NOVELTY - Preparing nickel containing amorphous carbon, comprises mixing nickel(II) chloride hexahydrate and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid in a mixed solvent of ethanol and water in the presence of nitrogen, adjusting the pH value of the mixture to 12-14, adding carbon powder with nickel(II) chloride hexahydrate, stirring and ultrasonic dispersing the mixture and then adding reducing agent of hydrazine hydrate with nickel(II) chloride hexahydrate, reacting the mixture, cooling and then filtering the mixture to obtain black slurry solution, and vacuum drying slurry solution to obtain product.    USE - The method is useful for preparing nickel containing amorphous carbon, which is useful as a precursor for preparing noble metal catalyst of a fuel cell (claimed).    ADVANTAGE - The method is capable of economically preparing the nickel containing amorphous carbon with good stability, high activity and long service life.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - Preparing nickel containing amorphous carbon, comprises uniformly mixing nickel(II) chloride hexahydrate and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid in a mass ratio of 1:2-1:5 in a mixed solvent of ethanol and water in the presence of nitrogen, adjusting the pH value of the mixture to 12-14, adding carbon powder with 1-1.5 times of nickel(II) chloride hexahydrate, stirring and ultrasonic dispersing the mixture and then adding reducing agent of hydrazine hydrate with 1-2 times of nickel(II) chloride hexahydrate, reacting the mixture at 90-160 degrees C for 4-6 hours, quickly cooling and then filtering the mixture to obtain black slurry solution, and vacuum drying slurry solution to obtain nickel containing amorphous carbon. An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for preparing noble metal catalyst of a fuel cell comprising making the precious metal salt or glycol, uniformly stirring the mixture, adjusting pH of the mixture to 8-10 using potassium hydroxide glycol solution, adding nickel containing amorphous carbon with 0.5-5 times of the precious metal salt or glycol, stirring and ultrasonic dispersing the mixture for 0.1-0.5 hours, refluxing and reacting the mixture at 160-180 degrees C for 4-10 hours, filtering the mixture, and washing and then drying the filtrate to obtain noble metal catalyst of fuel cell.
