Development of a PtSn bimetallic catalyst for direct fuel cells using bio-butanol fuel.

Pt and PtSn catalysts were studied for n-butanol electro-oxidation at various temperatures. PtSn showed a higher activity towards butanol electro-oxidation compared to Pt in acidic media. The onset potential for n-butanol oxidation on PtSn is ∼520 mV lower than that found on Pt, and significantly lower activation energy was found for PtSn compared with that for Pt.

Sn-doped TiO2 modified carbon to support Pt anode catalysts for direct methanol fuel cells

Catalyst supports are known to play important role in governing overall catalyst activity and durability. Here, a new type of SnO2eTiO2 solid solution (TixSn1-xO2) support was prepared via a solvothermal method with substitution of Ti4þ by Sn4þ in the TiO2 lattice. Furthermore, the TixSn1-xO2 was combined with conventional carbon black (Vulcan XC-72) to prepare a hybrid support (TixSn1-xO2eC) f...
