Abstract
An effective method to improve the catalytic performance of electrocatalytic alcohol oxidation by establishing strong interfacial interactions through novel carrier materials and polymetallic alloys. In this paper, novel polyhedral metal–organic framework Al-based [Al(OH)(mBDC)] (CAU-10) composites with PdPbBi trimetallic particles embedded in folded graphene oxide (rGO) modified by a simple hydrothermal reaction were prepared and applied to the electrocatalytic oxidation reaction of ethylene glycol. The results of electrochemical tests showed that the trimetallic catalysts exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity compared to commercial Pd/C. In particular, PdPbBi@rGO/CAU-10 has the highest peak current density of 241.82 mA cm−2, which is 8.97 times higher than that of Pd/C (26.92 mA cm−2), and the largest electrochemical active area (ECSA) value of 88.12 mA cm−2, which is 2.40 times higher than that of Pd/C (36.75 mA cm−2). This outstanding electrocatalytic activity is mainly attributed to the polyhedral structure of CAU-10 composite carriers and the abundance of oxygen-containing atoms, which is conducive to the homogeneous loading of metals, at the same time, the strong electronic effect between Pd, Pb and Bi and the abundance of oxygen-containing species provide significant enhancement of electrocatalytic activity and stability, which provides an important reference for the development of electrocatalysts for ethylene glycol fuel cells.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry is the foremost international journal devoted to the interdisciplinary subject of electrochemistry in all its aspects, theoretical as well as applied.
Electrochemistry is a wide ranging area that is in a state of continuous evolution. Rather than compiling a long list of topics covered by the Journal, the editors would like to draw particular attention to the key issues of novelty, topicality and quality. Papers should present new and interesting electrochemical science in a way that is accessible to the reader. The presentation and discussion should be at a level that is consistent with the international status of the Journal. Reports describing the application of well-established techniques to problems that are essentially technical will not be accepted. Similarly, papers that report observations but fail to provide adequate interpretation will be rejected by the Editors. Papers dealing with technical electrochemistry should be submitted to other specialist journals unless the authors can show that their work provides substantially new insights into electrochemical processes.
