Abstract:
The Pt/FeSnO(OH) 5 catalyst has been prepared by depositing Pt nanoparticles on the synthesized FeSnO(OH) 5 nanoboxes and demonstrates excellent performance towards methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) in direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs). The Pt/FeSnO(OH) 5 catalyst exhibits a higher mass activity (1182.35 mA/mg Pt ) compared with Pt/C (594.57 mA/mg Pt ) catalysts. The X-ray powder diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscope, field emission transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and electrochemical experiments have been employed to explore the relationships between the crystal structure and electrochemical properties. The increased activity and resistance of CO poisoning for Pt/FeSnO(OH) 5 catalyst can be attributed to the strong interaction between the transition metal in the hydroxide and Pt and the bifunctional effect. The higher relative concentration of Pt 0 in Pt/FeSnO(OH) 5 also contributes to the MOR activity. Moreover, the charge transfer resistance of Pt/FeSnO(OH) 5 is lower than that of Pt/C. Therefore, Pt/FeSnO(OH) 5 has great application prospect as a high-performance electrocatalyst in DMFCs. © 2018 Fujian Institute of Research of the Structure of Matter. All right reserved.
