Carbon-Supported Pt and PtRu Nanoparticles as Catalysts for a Direct Methanol Fuel Cell

Liu, Zhaolin, Ling, Xing Yi, Su, Xiaodi, Lee, Jim Yang·2004·The Journal of Physical Chemistry B

Abstract

Nanosized Pt and PtRu colloids were prepared by a microwave-assisted polyol process and transferred to a toluene solution of decanthiol. Vulcan XC-72 was then added to the toluene solution to adsorb the thiolated Pt and PtRu colloids. TEM examinations showed nearly spherical particles and narrow size distributions for both supported and unsupported metals. The carbon-supported Pt and PtRu nanoparticles were activated by thermal treatment to remove the thiol stabilizing shell. All Pt and PtRu catalysts (except Pt 23 Ru 77 ) showed the X-ray diffraction pattern of a face-centered cubic (fcc) crystal structure, whereas the Pt 23 Ru 77 alloy was more typical of the hexagonal close-packed (hcp) structure. The electro-oxidation of liquid methanol on these catalysts was investigated at room temperature by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. The results showed that the alloy catalyst was catalytically more active than pure platinum. The heat-treated catalyst was also expectedly more active than the non-heat-treated ones, because of the successful removal of the organic shell, which might interfere with reactant adsorption in the methanol oxidation reaction. Pt 52 Ru 48 /C had the best electrocatalytic performance among all carbon-supported Pt and PtRu catalysts.

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.
