Platinum particles supported on mesoporous carbons: fabrication and electrocatalytic performance in methanol-tolerant oxygen-reduction reactions
In this report, we describe the preparation and electrochemical characterization of a Pt electrocatalyst, which was synthesized from hexachloroplatinic acid, using the incipient wetness impregnation method. This carbon mesoporous materials (Pt-CMMs) electrocatalyst was used for catalyzing the oxidation of methanol and its oxygen-reduction reaction. The electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol was...
متن کاملOrdered mesoporous porphyrinic carbons with very high electrocatalytic activity for the oxygen reduction reaction
The high cost of the platinum-based cathode catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) has impeded the widespread application of polymer electrolyte fuel cells. We report on a new family of non-precious metal catalysts based on ordered mesoporous porphyrinic carbons (M-OMPC; M = Fe, Co, or FeCo) with high surface areas and tunable pore structures, which were prepared by nanocasting mesop...
متن کاملElectrocatalytic Oxygen Reduction Reaction
Oxygen (O2) is the most abundant element in the Earth’s crust. The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is also the most important reaction in life processes such as biological respiration, and in energy converting systems such as fuel cells. ORR in aqueous solutions occurs mainly by two pathways: the direct 4-electron reduction pathway from O2 to H2O, and the 2-electron reduction pathway from O2 to...
متن کاملMultifunctional graphene-based nanostructures for efficient electrocatalytic reduction of oxygen
Graphene derivatives have been used extensively as a functional support for nanoparticle catalysts in diverse applications, in particular, oxygen reduction reactions (ORR) at fuel cell cathodes. This review summarizes recent progress in this area of research, where the catalytic performance is evaluated within the context of stabilization of metal nanoparticles against sintering/aggregation and...
متن کاملLaccase-modified gold nanorods for electrocatalytic reduction of oxygen.
cathodes. Nanostructuring was provided by gold nanorods (AuNRs), which were characterized and covalently attached to electrodes made of low-density graphite. The nanostructured electrode was the scaffold for covalent and oriented attachment of ThLc. The bioelectrocatalytic currents measured for oxygen reduction were as high as 0.5 mA/cm(2 and 0.7 mA/cm(2), which were recorded under direct and m...
