Abstract
Fuel cells, one of the clean energy sources, is quite remarkable for energy production. In this context, catalysts are needed for the electrochemical reactions of DMFCs (direct methanol fuel cells) to work efficiently. In this study, Pt and Pt@Ti-MOF (Pt@MIL-125) NPs (nanoparticles) catalysts were synthesized by chemical synthesis. The Ti-MOF (MIL-125) structure was synthesized using the solvothermal method, and the effect of Ti-MOF on methanol oxidation was investigated. The results showed that Pt@Ti-MOF NPs provided 9.45 times more electrocatalytic activity for methanol oxidation compared to Pt NPs. In addition, Ti-MOF doping was shown to increase the stability and durability by long-term tests. The study provides important results on how MOF-supported structures behave electrochemically. The results show that Ti-MOF provides very high potential in MOR applications and is promising for use as an anode catalyst in DMFC systems.
