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...

متن کاملPolyaniline-carbon composite films as supports of Pt and PtRu particles for methanol electrooxidation
Vulcan XC-72 carbon black particles (average size: ca. 50 nm) was incorporated into polyaniline (PANI) matrix by an electrochemical codeposition technique during the electropolymerization process. The doping by carbon particles leads to a higher polymeric degree and a lower defect density in the PANI structure. Furthermore, the incorporation of carbon particles not only increases the electroche...
