High‐Performance Direct Methanol Fuel Cells with Precious‐Metal‐Free Cathode
Direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) hold great promise for applications ranging from portable power for electronics to transportation. However, apart from the high costs, current Pt-based cathodes in DMFCs suffer significantly from performance loss due to severe methanol crossover from anode to cathode. The migrated methanol in cathodes tends to contaminate Pt active sites through yielding a mix...
متن کاملOne –step synthesis of PdCo alloy nanoparticles decorated on reduced grahene oxide as an Electro-catalyst for Oxygen Reduction Reaction in Passive Direct Methanol Fuel Cells
We report a Pd-Co (3:1)/graphene oxide (Pd3Co /GO) catalyst through a one-step strategy. GO is synthesized from graphite electrodes using ionic liquid-assisted electrochemical exfoliation. Controllable GO-supported Pd3Co electrocatalystis then was reduced by ethylene glycol as a stabilizing agent to prepare highly dispersed PdCo nanoparticles on carbon graphene oxide to be used as oxygen reduct...
متن کاملPlatinum Nanoparticles Deposited on Oxygen-Containing Functional Groups at Carbon Vulcane XC-72 as a Cathode Catalyst for Direct Methanol Fuel Cell
Surface oxidized carbon vulcane XC-72 is prepared as catalyst support and platinumnanoparticles are chemically anchored onto the modified surface. The nanoparticles of Pt weresynthesized by reduction of H2PtCl6 with sodium borohydride in a 5.5 M buffer solution ofsodium citrate; the complexation of citrate with metal ions is beneficial to the formation ofnanoparticles. The electro-oxidation of ...
متن کاملOptimization of cathode catalyst layer for direct methanol fuel cells Part I. Experimental investigation
The cathode catalyst layer (CL) in direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) has been optimized through a balance of ionomer and porosity distributions, oth playing important roles in affecting proton conduction and oxygen transport through a thick CL of DMFC. The effects of fabrication rocedure, ionomer content, and Pt distribution on the microstructure and performance of a cathode CL under low air f...
