Facile synthesis of continuous Pt island networks and their electrochemical properties for methanol electrooxidation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A two-dimensional continuous Pt island network was successfully synthesized by pulse-potentiostatic electrodeposition on a flat silicon substrate, which showed markedly enhanced catalytic activity toward methanol electrooxidation and high CO tolerance, probably due to the synergistic effect of the Pt island catalyst and surrounding SiO(2) surface layer.

Electrocatalytic properties of platinum catalyst for methanol electrooxidation enhanced by nafion-thionine ion-pair
Nafion (Nf)-thionine (Th) ion-pair as dispersant and second catalyst has been introduced in Pt catalyst for methanol electrooxidation and the resulting catalyst supported on carbon (NfThPt/C) has been investigated by electrochemical method. For the same loading mass of Pt, the peak current density of methanol oxidation on the NfThPt/C/graphite electrode is about 7.25 and 3.04 times as high as t...
