Platinum overlaid PdCulr/C: an Improved Methanol Oxidation Elextrocatalyst
(ESG, 2013)
A platinum overlaid PdCuIr/C (Pt-PdIrCu/C) anodic catalyst for direct methanol fuel cell was prepared by a two-step reduction method. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) results show that the ...
Amorphous Pt@dCu/CNT catalyst for methanol elextrooxidation
(South African Chemical Institute (SACI), 2013)
A multi-walled carbon nanotube-supported, Pt decorated nano-sized amorphous PdCu alloy cores (denoted as Pt@PdCu/CNT)
catalyst with lower Pt loading is synthesized via a galvanic displacement reaction. The structure is ...
Beef-derived mesoporous carbon as highly efficient support for PtRuIr electrocatalysts and their high activity for CO and methanol oxidation
(SACI, 2014)
In this work, a low-cost and nitrogen-containing carbon with mesoporous pores and high surface area was synthesized by
carbonizing a natural biomass precursor, i.e. beef. It is found that the prepared material has excellent ...
Ethanol oxidation activity and structure of carbon-supported Pt-modified PdSn-SnO2 influenced by different stabilizers
(Elsevier, 2013)
PdSn-SnO2 nanoparticles supported on Vulcan XC-72 carbon were synthesized by chemical reduction in the presence of three different stabilizing agents: ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA), sodium citrate (Nacitrate) ...
Synthesis of carbon-supported PdSn–SnO2 nanoparticles with different degrees of interfacial contact and enhanced catalytic activities for formic acid oxidation
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2013)
The conjunction of the PdSn alloy and SnO2 is of interest for improving catalytic activity in formic acid
oxidation (FAO). Here, we report the synthesis of PdSn–SnO2 nanoparticles and a study of their catalytic
FAO ...
The effect of PtRuIr nanoparticle crystallinity in electrocatalytic methanol oxidation
(MDPI, 2013)
Two structural forms of a ternary alloy PtRuIr/C catalyst, one amorphous and one highly crystalline, were synthesized and compared to determine the effect of their respective structures on their activity and stability as ...
CNx-modified Fe3O4 as Pt nanoparticle support for the oxygen reduction reaction
(Springer, 2013)
A novel electrocatalyst support material, nitrogendoped carbon (CNx)-modified Fe3O4 (Fe3O4-CNx), was synthesized through carbonizing a polypyrrole-Fe3O4 hybridized precursor. Subsequently, Fe3O4-CNx-supported Pt (Pt/Fe3O4-CNx) ...
Nanoparticulate TiO2-promoted PtRu/C catalyst for methanol oxidation: TiO2 nanoparticles promoted PtRu/C catalyst for MOR
(Springer, 2013)
To improve the electrocatalytic properties of PtRu/C in methanol electrooxidation, nanoparticulate TiO2-promoted PtRu/C catalysts were prepared by directly mixing TiO2 nanoparticles with PtRu/C. Using cyclic voltammetry, ...
Selenium functionalized carbon for high dispersion of platinumeruthenium nanoparticles and its effect on the electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol
(Elsevier, 2013)
Using selenium functionalized carbon as supports, platinumeruthenium nanoparticles were highly dispersed on the carbon surface, and showed improved electrochemical properties for methanol electrooxidation. The method ...
Palygorskite hybridized carbon nanocomposite as a high-performance electrocatalyst support for formic acid oxidation
(South African Chemical Institute (SACI), 2013)
A nanocomposite, in which acid-treated palygorskite was hybridized with carbon, was prepared and designed as an efficient
support for electrocatatlysts. Pd nanoparticles were deposited on the hybrid support as an ...
