Electrocatalytic activity of Vulcan-XC-72 supported Pd, Rh and PdxRhy toward HOR and ORR
(2015)
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 ...
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 ...
Preparation of graphitic mesoporous carbon for the simultaneous detection of hydroquinone and catechol
(2013)
A graphitic mesoporous carbon (GMC) had been successfully synthesized using Ni-Fe layered double hydroxide (LDH) as both template and catalyst under a relatively low pyrolysis temperature. The techniques of X-ray diffraction, ...
Direct alcohol fuel cells: Challenges and future trends
(2011)
Among the most considered future alternative energy conversion systems are fuel cells. A fuel cell is an electrochemical device that continuously and directly converts chemical energy to electricity with the most common ...
Conductivity of Gd-doped BaCeO3 protonic conductor in H2-H2O-O2 atmospheres
(2013)
This work proposes a radically new simple method of evaluation of the proton conductivity based on measurement of the conductivity of ceramic materials depending on the oxygen partial pressure (pO2) at a gradual transition ...
New mixed ionic-electronic composite materials based on SRTI0.5FE0.5O3-Δ and CE0.8(SM0.8SR0.2)0.2O2-Δ
(2013)
The crystal, electrical and electrochemical properties of the new composite materials of (1-x)SrTi0.5Fe0.5O3-δ-xCe0.8(Sm0.8Sr0.2)0.2O2-δ (0≤x≤1, Δx= 0.25) prepared by solid phase method. Composites have no phase interaction. ...
An investigation of WC stability during the preparation of Pt@WC/OMC via a pulse microwave assisted polyol method
(2015)
In the present work, the WC stability during the preparation of Pt@WC/OMC (Ordered Mesoporous Carbon) electrocatalysts, through a pulse microwave-assisted polyol method, is investigated by the aid of X-ray diffraction and ...
Exergy Analysis of an Intermediate Temperature Solid Oxide Fuel Cell-Gas Turbine Hybrid System Fed with Ethanol
(2012)
In the present work, an ethanol fed Solid Oxide Fuel Cell-Gas Turbine ( SOFC-GT) system has been parametrically analyzed in terms of exergy and compared with a single SOFC system. The solid oxide fuel cell was fed with ...
