Abstract

Electrooxidation of methanol in sulfuric acid solution was studied using Pt, Pt/Ni(1:1 and 3:1), Pt/Ru/Ni(5:4:1 and 6:3.5:0.5), and Pt/Ru(1:1) alloy nanoparticle catalysts, in relation to methanol oxidation processes in the direct oxidation methanol fuel cell. The Pt/Ni and Pt/Ru/Ni alloys showed excellent catalytic activities compared to those of pure Pt and Pt/Ru. The role of Ni as a catalytically enhancing agent in the oxidation process was interrogated using cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction. X-ray diffraction data showed alloy formation for all Pt/Ni, Pt/Ru/Ni, and Pt/Ru nanoparticles, whereas X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed that chemical states of Pt were exclusively metallic. The presence of metallic Ni, NiO, Ni(OH) 2, NiOOH, metallic Ru, RuO 2, and RuO 3 was also confirmed. We found that the Pt 4f binding energies for the Pt/Ni and Pt/Ru/Ni alloy nanoparticles were lower than those for clean Pt nanoparticles. The oxides that serve as the oxygen donors for the oxidation process, and the change in the electronic structure of the Pt component in the alloys versus those in Pt and Pt/Ru collectively account, we believe, for enhancement in rates of methanol oxidation. The difference in the peak shift in Pt 4f between Pt/Ni and Pt/Ru alloy nanoparticles is discussed by using electronegativities of the three components: Pt, Ru, and Ni. A comparison between the alloy nanoparticle composition and that of disk alloy electrodes under similar conditions was made in terms of the surface-to-volume ratio and surface segregation of the alloying components.

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.
