Direct ethanol fuel cell anode simulation model
(2006)The electrochemical behavior of a direct ethanol feed proton exchange membrane fuel cell (DEFC) operating under steady-state isothermal conditions at 1 atm at both anode and cathode sides is considered. A mathematical model ... -
Direct ethanol fuel cells based on PtSn anodes: The effect of Sn content on the fuel cell performance
(2005)In the present work, several carbon supported PtSn catalysts with different Pt/Sn atomic ratios were synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron ... -
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 ...
