Enhanced stability and efficiency of Pd electrocatalysts towards electrooxidation of ethanol using CNT–CNF supporting materials
Pd electrocatalysts supported on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and carbon nanofibres (CNFs) and their combination thereof were evaluated for their effective ethanol oxidation reaction. The electrocatalysts (namely Pd/CNT, Pd/CNF and Pd/CNT-CNF) were synthesized and characterized using BET, TEM, XRD, TGA and Raman spectroscopy techniques. Electrochemical characterization using cyclic voltammetry in the presence of [Fe(CN)6]3/−4 redox probe showed that the electrocatalysts exhibited excellent current response on glassy carbon electrode in the order of Pd/CNT > Pd/CNF > Pd/CNT-CNF. In contrast, in alkaline ethanolic solution, the order of oxidative current response was Pd/CNF < Pd/CNT < Pd/CNT-CNF, implying better electrocatalytic activity for the ternary electrocatalysts. The superiority of Pd/CNT-CNF over other electrocatalysts was further revealed using chronoamperometry (current density: 51.52, 13.31 and 11.25 mA cm−2 for Pd/CNT-CNT, Pd/CNF and Pd/CNT, respectively). Furthermore, the ternary electrocatalysts demonstrated excellent stability after 1500 cycles, making it attractive as a durable electrode for fuel cell technology development.
期刊介绍:
The Bulletin of Materials Science is a bi-monthly journal being published by the Indian Academy of Sciences in collaboration with the Materials Research Society of India and the Indian National Science Academy. The journal publishes original research articles, review articles and rapid communications in all areas of materials science. The journal also publishes from time to time important Conference Symposia/ Proceedings which are of interest to materials scientists. It has an International Advisory Editorial Board and an Editorial Committee. The Bulletin accords high importance to the quality of articles published and to keep at a minimum the processing time of papers submitted for publication.
