Effect of properties of active carbon supports on performance of Pt/C catalysts in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell

The Pt/C catalysts were prepared with pine active carbon and Vulcan XC-72 active carbon as the supports. The performances of the Pt/C catalysts in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell were compared. The result indicates that the performance of Pt/Vulcan XC-72 is better than that of Pt/pine. The physical and chemical properties of the two active carbons were measured using several analysis techniques. It was found that the pore size, specific conductivity and the surface function group significantly influence the performance of the electrocatalyst.

固相反应法制备的Pt/C催化剂对乙醇氧化的电催化活性研究

直接甲醇燃料电池（DMFC）由于具有燃料来源丰富、价格低廉、易于携带储存等优点,近年来一直是世界上许多国家研究和开发的热点[1].但是甲醇具有一定的毒性,因此要想实现DMFC在诸如手机、笔记本电脑以及电动车等可移动电源领域的应用,必须探索寻找新的液体燃料以替代有毒性的甲醇.其中乙醇很易从农作物中大量生产,又无毒,因此很有可能用作为替代甲醇作DMFC的燃料.乙醇的电催化氧化已被众多的研究者从电催化和乙醇燃料电池的角度进行了广泛研究[2-7].其中,对乙醇电催化氧化活性较好的有pt[2-4]、pt-Ru[6-7]、Pt-Pd[5]和Pt-Mo[7]等催化剂.我们研究组报道了用固相反应法制得的Pt催化剂对甲醇氧化的电催化活性要优于用常规液

碳载Pt-TiO_2阳极催化剂对甲醇氧化的电催化活性和稳定性

近年来,直接甲醇燃料电池（DMFC）由于使用液体燃料而越来越受到重视,但目前DMFC存在的一个普遍的问题是常用的Pt阳极催化剂易被甲醇氧化的中间产物所毒化.因此,一些研究者研究了能抗甲醇氧化的中间产物毒化的Pt二元合金或Pt和过渡金属氧化物复合催化剂,如Pt-Ru[1]、Pt-Sn[2]、Pt-WOx[3]等.考虑至TiO2在酸性溶液中的稳定性,Hamnett研究组[4]和我们研究组[5]发现pt-TiO2/Ti复合电极对甲醇氧化有很好的电催化活性和抗中毒的能力.本文报道了制备能在DMFC中实际使用的碳载Pt-TiO2催化剂（Pt-TiO2/C）的方法和比较了Pt-TiO2/C和Pt/C电极对甲醇氧化的电催化活性和稳定性.用固相法制备含Pt20％的Pt/C催化剂[6],将制得的pt/C催化剂和Ti（OBu）4按摩尔比1:1的比例悬浮在乙醇中,超声波震荡并加水,使Ti（OBu）4完全水解成TiO2,并均匀沉积到Pt/C催化剂上,洗涤,真空干燥,500℃热处理

Studies on electrocatalytic performance of titanium oxide electrode modified with Pt toward the oxidation of methanol

Electrocatalytic performance of the Pr-TiOx/Ti electrode prepared with electrochemical reduction-oxidation method toward the oxidation of methanol has been studied, The experimental results showed that the Pt-TiOx/Ti electrode has a high electrocatalytic activity and good stability for the electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol, By means of electrochemical, XPS, STM and in-situ FTIR techniques, it was found that one reason for the electrode to exhibit an excellent performance is attributed to the high dispersion between nanosized Pt and TiOx particles, The low adsorption ability of the intermediate derived from methanol, such as linearly adsorbed CO species on the electrode surface due to the interaction between Pt and TiOx, also results in the excellent performance.

Metal ion and anion coordination in the thiamine-[Pt-II(NO2)(4)](2-) system. Structures of a metal complex, Pt(thiamine)(NO2)(3), and two salts, (H-thiamine)[Pt(NO2)(4)]center dot 2H(2)O and (thiamine monophosphate)(2)[Pt(NO2)(4)]center dot 2H(2)O

Reaction of thiamine or thiamine monophosphate (TMP) with K2Pt(NO2)(4) afforded a metal complex, Pt(thiamine)(NO2)(3) (1), and two salt-type compounds, (H-thiamine)[Pt(NO2)(4)]. 2H(2)O (2) and (TMP)(2)[Pt(NO2)(4)]. 2H(2)O (3), which were structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction. In 1, the square-planar Pt2+ ion is coordinated to the pyrimidine N(1'), a usual metal-binding site, and three NO2- groups. The thiamine molecule exists as a monovalent cation in 1 and a divalent cation in 2 while the TMP molecule is a monovalent cation in 3. In each compound, thiamine or TMP adopts the usual F conformation and forms two types of host-guest-like interactions with anions, which are of the bridging forms, C(2)-H . . . anion . . . pyrimidine-ring and N(4'1)-H(...)anion(...)thiazolium-ring. In 3, there is an additional anion-bridging interaction between the pyrimidine and thiazolium rings of TMP, being of the form C(6')-H . . . anion . . . thiazolium-ring. The salts 2 and 3 show similar hydrogen-bonded cyclic dimers of thiamine or TMP between which the anions are held. Results are compared with those of the other thiamine-platinum complexes.
