Electrodeposition and electrocatalytic properties of platinum nanoparticles on multi-walled carbon nanotubes: effect of the deposition conditions

Platinum (Pt) nanoparticles were electrochemically deposited on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) through a three-step process, including an electrochemical treatment of MWCNT, electro-oxidation of PtCl₄ ²⁻ to Pt(IV) complex, and an electro-conversion of Pt(0) on MWCNT. The effect of formation conditions for Pt(IV) complexes on the Pt nanoparticals transformed was investigated. The structure and elemental composition of the resulting Pt/MWCNT electrode were characterized by transmission electron micrograph (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The electrocatalytic properties of the resulting Pt/MWCNT electrode for methanol oxidation have been investigated. The high electrocatalytic activity and good stability of Pt/MWCNT electrode may be attributed to the high dispersion of platinum nanoparticles and the particular properties of the MWCNT supports.     

Electrochemical synthesis of a novel platinum nanostructure on a glassy carbon electrode, and its application to the electrooxidation of methanol

We show that the addition of white dextrin during the electrochemical deposition of platinum nanostructures (nano-Pt) on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) results in an electrochemically active surface that is much larger than that of platinum microparticles prepared by the same procedure but in the absence of dextrin. The nano-Pt deposits are characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy, and electrochemical methods. The SEM images reveal deposits composed of mainly nanoparticles and short nanorods. The GCE was applied as a novel and cost-effective catalyst for methanol oxidation. The use of nano-Pt improves the electrocatalytic activity and the stability of the electrodes.

Electrodeposition of Platinum Nanoparticles on Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes for Electrocatalytic Oxidation of Methanol

Platinum (Pt) nanoparticles were deposited at the surface of well-aligned multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) by potential cycling between +0.50 and −0.70 V at a scanning rate of 50 mV · s⁻¹ in 5 mM Na₂PtCl₆ solution containing 0.1 M NaCl. The electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol at the nanocomposites of Pt nanoparticles/nanotubes (Pt_nano/MWNTs) has been investigated using 0.2 M H₂SO₄ as supporting electrolyte. The effects of various parameters, such as Pt loading, concentration of methanol, medium temperature as well as the stability of Pt_nano/MWNTs electrode, have been studied. Compared to glassy carbon electrode, carbon nanotube electrode significantly enhances the catalytic efficiency of Pt nanoparticles for methanol oxidation. This improvement in performance is due not only to the high surface area and the fast electron transfer rate of nanotubes but also to the highly dispersed Pt nanoparticles as electrocatalysts at the tips and the sidewalls of nanotubes.     

Enhanced Electrocatalytic Activity of Dual Template Based Pt/Cu‐zeolite A/Graphene for Methanol Electrooxidation

A novel Pt/Cu‐zeolite A/graphene based electrocatalyst was successfully prepared by chemical reduction method for methanol electrooxidation. Graphite oxide and Cu functionalized zeolite A were simultaneously reduced by NaBH₄ to prepare Cu‐zeolite A/graphene support which was used to deposit Pt nanoparticles. The nanostructure and composition of as‐prepared Pt/Cu‐zeolite A/graphene composites were characterized by X‐ray diffractometer, X‐ray fluorescence, Fourier transform infrared spectrometer and scanning electron microscopy. The electrocatalytic properties of Pt/Cu‐zeolite A/graphene modified electrode for methanol oxidation were investigated by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry in 0.10 mol/L H₂SO₄ + 0.50 mol/L CH₃OH solution. Compared with Pt/zeolite A/graphene electrode and Pt/graphene electrode, Pt/Cu‐zeolite A/graphene based electrode exhibited obviously enhanced current and higher electrocatalytic activity for methanol electrooxidation. The increased electrocatalytic activity was attributed to the presence of zeolite A and reduced graphene oxide based dual template, which significantly increased the effective electrode surface and facilitated the diffusion of analytes into the electroactive catalyst.

Fabrication and catalytic properties of Pt and Ru decorated TiO2⧹CNTs catalyst for methanol electrooxidation

Highly ordered anodic titania nanotube arrays provide a large surface area for electrodepositing nickel nanoparticles which are used as the catalyst for carbon nanotube growth. Pt and Ru nanoparticles, approximately 3 nm in diameter, are uniformly electrodeposited on the as synthesized titania-supported carbon nanotubes (CNTs), constructing a novel catalyst for electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol. An enhanced and stable catalytic activity is obtained due to the uniformly dispersed Pt and Ru nanoparticles, and the large CNT network facilitating the electron transfer between the adsorbed methanol molecules and the catalyst substrate. An oxidation peak current density of 55 mA/cm² is achieved at a low Pt load of 0.126 mg/cm² with a Pt/Ru mole ratio of 1:1.

Facile single-step preparation of Pt/N-graphene catalysts with improved methanol electrooxidation activity

In this work, we describe a facile single-step approach for the simultaneous reduction of graphene oxide to graphene, functional doping of graphene with nitrogen, and loading of the doped graphene with well-dispersed platinum (Pt) nanoparticles using a solvent mixture of ethylene glycol and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone. The as-prepared Pt/nitrogen-doped graphene (N-graphene) catalysts are characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy while the electrocatalytic methanol oxidation properties of the catalysts are evaluated by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. Compared with an updoped Pt/graphene control catalyst, the Pt/N-graphene catalyst shows a narrower particle size distribution and improved catalytic performance. Considering the facile, green and effective single-step synthetic process for the Pt/N-graphene catalyst, the results are promising for the potential application of these materials in emerging fuel cell technologies.
