The electrocatalysis of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on carbon supportedPt-V (1:1) catalyst in polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFC) was investigated. Atan oxygen pressure of one atm an enhanced electrocatalytic property of Pt-V/Ccompared with Pt/C is revealed. These results indicate the occurrence of adifferent electrocatalytic mechanism for the ORR on Pt/C and Pt-V/C. Anincrease of mas...
