Huge Instability of Pt/C Catalysts in Alkaline Medium
Open accessAbstract
The stability of carbon-supported electrocatalysts has been largely investigated in acidic electrolytes, but the literature is much scarcer regarding similar stability studies in alkaline medium. Herein, the degradation of Vulcan XC-72-supported platinum nanoparticles (noted Pt/C), a state-of-the-art proton exchange membrane fuel cell electrocatalyst, is investigated in alkaline medium by combining electrochemical measurements and identical location transmission electron microscopy; electrochemical surface area (ECSA) losses were bridged to electrocatalyst morphological changes. The results demonstrate that the degradation in 0.1 M NaOH at 25 °C is severe (60% of ECSA loss after only 150 cycles between 0.1 and 1.23 V vs RHE), which is about 3 times worse than in acidic media for this soft accelerated stress test. Severe carbon corrosion has been ruled out according to Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements, and it seems that the chemistry of the carbon support (in particular, the interface (chemical bounding)) between the Pt nanoparticles and their carbon substrate does play a significant role in the observed degradations.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
