Direct alcohol fuel cells: A novel non-platinum and alcohol inert ORR electrocatalyst
(2008)
In the present investigation, a series of binary PdxFey/C electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) was synthesized in a very short time by employing a pulse-microwave assisted polyol method. The physico-chemical ...
How far are direct alcohol fuel cells from our energy future?
(2007)
Direct alcohol fuel cells (DAFCs) have been attracting more and more attention and interest during the last decade due to their simplicity, the easy handle and the high power density of the liquid alcohol fuels. However, ...
Investigation of the reaction of ethanol-steam mixtures in a YSZ electrochemical reactor operated in a fuel cell mode
(2006)
In the present investigation ethanol-water mixtures were directly fed to a yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) electrochemical reactor operated in a fuel cell mode and the preliminary results are presented and discussed. ...
High surface area tungsten carbide microspheres as effective Pt catalyst support for oxygen reduction reaction
(2009)
In the present work, the preparation of high surface area (256 m2 g-1) tungsten carbide microspheres (TCMSs) by the aid of a simple hydrothermal method is realized and the performance of the Pt electrocatalyst supported ...
A facile soft-template synthesis of ordered mesoporous carbon/tungsten carbide composites with high surface area for methanol electrooxidation
(2012)
Ordered 2D hexagonal mesoporous carbon/tungsten carbide (OMC/WC) composite nanomaterials have been successfully synthesized for the first time by the soft-template method with ammonium metagungstate as tungsten precursor ...
Ordered mesoporous tungsten carbide/carbon composites promoted Pt catalyst with high activity and stability for methanol electrooxidation
(2014)
The current anode materials used for direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) are expensive and not sufficiently durable for commercial development. One of the major challenges lies in the development of an inexpensive, efficient ...
Pt-based catalysts for direct ethanol fuel cells
(2004)
A PtSn/C catalyst was synthesized by the direct decoration of commercial Pt/C with Sn as anode electrocatalyst in direct ethanol fuel cell (DEFC). The techniques of cyclic voltammetry, anode polarization curve, and single ...
Carbon-supported PdSn and Pd3Sn2 anodes for glucose electrooxidation in alkaline media
(2014)
PdSn (20 wt.%) and Pd3Sn2 (20 wt.%) nanoparticles supported on Vulcan XC-72 carbon powders are prepared by a modified microwave-assisted polyol method and studied for the reaction of glucose electrooxidation in alkaline ...
PdxRuy/C binary catalysts for glucose electrooxidation
(2013)
PdxRuy/C (x:y=1:2, 1:3, 2:1 and 3:1) electrocatalysts are prepared by a modified pulse microwave assisted polyol method and are studied for glucose electrooxidation in alkaline media. The effects of glucose's concentrations ...
