چکیده

Mesoporous vanadium nitride (VN) with high surface area and good electrical conductivity was prepared by a solid-solid phase separation method from a Zn containing vanadium oxide, Zn(3)V(2)O(8). The VN supported Pd catalyst exhibited significant catalytic activity for formic acid oxidation.

Poisoning effect diminished on a novel PdHoOx/C catalyst for the electrooxidation of formic acid.

A surprisingly high and stable current was observed after the peak current on the PdHoOx/C catalyst indicating the diminished poisoning effect. Moreover, the novel PdHoOx/C catalyst exhibited excellent catalytic activity and stability for formic acid oxidation due to the large electrochemical surface area and electronic effect.

Synthesis of Monodispersed Pt-Ni Alloy Nanodendrites and Their Electrochemical Properties

Structure-controlled Pt-based catalysts have been known to exhibit improved electrocatalytic activities due to particularly modulated surface structures favorable for alcohol electrooxidation. We report PtNi alloy dendrite structure for formic acid electrooxidation prepared by a thermal decomposition method. The Pt-Ni nanodendrites display 3-dimentional nanostructure and homogeneous alloy forma...

Synthesis and photocatalytic activity of nanosized modified mesocellulous silica foams (MCFs) with PW12 and vanadium oxide

A series of tungestophosphoric acid and vanadium oxide supported on Mesocellulous Silica Foams (MCFs) featuring a well-defined three-dimensional (3D) mesoporosity were studied with regard to their performance in the photocatalytic activity to degrade Oezine Y (OY). This nanosized mesoporous catalyst (PW12@V-MCF) was characterized by FTIR, XRD, BET and TEM. XRD shows that the structure of MCF re...

Structural design and facile synthesis of a highly efficient catalyst for formic acid electrooxidation.

The pathway of formic acid electrooxidation strongly depends on the amount of three neighbouring Pt or Pd atoms in the surface of Pd- or Pt-based catalysts. Here, Pt decorated Pd/C nanoparticles (the optimal atomic ratio, Pd : Pt = 20 : 1) were designed and then synthesized through a facile galvanic replacement reaction where the amount of three neighbouring Pt or Pd atoms markedly decreased. A...
