Carbon-supported (Vulcan XC-72) Pd, Rh, and PdxRhy (20 wt%, x:y = 1:1, 3:1, 1:3) electrocatalysts are prepared according a modified pulse-microwave assisted polyol synthesis method and their electrocatalytic activity toward ...
Understanding the electrocatalytic activity of PtxSny in direct ethanol fuel cells
(2011)
In the present work, the activity of PtxSny/C catalysts towards ethanol, acetaldehyde and acetic acid electrooxidation reactions is investigated for each one separately by means of cyclic voltammetry. To this purpose, a ...
A review of the most efficient low-Pt and Pt-free electrocatalysts for hydrogen PEMFCs
(2013)
The main target of the PEMFC's scientific community is to reduce the total Pt loading to ca. 150 g cm-2 MEA, maintaining simultaneously high PEMFCs performances. The last years, promising results have also been reported ...
