Preparation of CoSe nanoparticles by microwave-assisted polyol method: effect of Se/Co ratio, support type and synthesis conditions on oxygen reduction activity

Highly methanol-tolerant CoSe nanoparticles supported on different carbon substrates were synthesized by microwave heating of glycerol solutions of cobalt(II) acetate and sodium selenite at different Se/Co mole ratios in the presence of different concentrations of acetic acid and ammonia. The resulting CoSe catalysts were used for the electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in acidic solution in the presence of methanol. The ORR activity of the catalyst was increased by increasing its Se content up to 50?mol%. The presence of acetic acid or ammonia in the synthesis solution significantly affects the electrocatalytic performance of the CoSe catalyst; highest activity was observed when the catalyst was synthesized at NH₃/Co(II) mole ratio of 6. Among the catalysts prepared on different supports including carbon black (Vulcan XC-72R), and nanoporous carbons synthesized from resorcinol-formaldehyde and phloroglucinol-formaldehyde resins, the one supported on the carbon prepared from the last resin exhibited highest electrocatalytic activity for ORR.

Synthesis of dual-doped non-precious metal electrocatalysts and their electrocatalytic activity for oxygen reduction reaction

The pyrolyzed carbon supported ferrum polypyrrole(Fe-N/C) catalysts are synthesized with or without selected dopants, p-toluenesulfonic acid(TsOH), by a facile thermal annealing approach at desired temperature for optimizing their activity for the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR) in O2-saturated 0.1 mol/L KOH solution. The electrochemical techniques such as cyclic voltammetry(CV) and rotating disk electrode(RDE) are employed with the Koutecky-Levich theory to quantitatively obtain the ORR kinetic constants and the reaction mechanisms. It is found that catalysts doped with TsOH show significantly improved ORR activity relative to the TsOH-free one. The average electron transfer numbers for the catalyzed ORR are determined to be 3.899 and 3.098, respectively, for the catalysts with and without TsOH-doping. The heat-treatment is found to be a necessary step for catalyst activity improvement, and the catalyst pyrolyzed at 600℃ gives the best ORR activity. An onset potential and the potential at the current density of-1.5 mA/cm2 for TsOH-doped catalyst after pyrolysis are 30 mV and 170 mV, which are more positive than those without pyrolized. Furthermore, the catalyst doped with TsOH shows higher tolerance to methanol compared with commercial Pt/C catalyst in 0.1 mol/L KOH. To understand this TsOH doping and pyrolyzed effect, X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscope(SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) are used to characterize these catalysts in terms of their structure and composition. XPS results indicate that the pyrrolic-N groups are the most active sites, a finding that is supported by the correspondence between changes in pyridinic-N content and ORR activity that occur with changing temperature. Sulfur species are also structurally bound to carbon in the forms of C–Sn–C, an additional beneficial factor for the ORR.

The effects of promoters of K and Zr on the mesoporous carbon supported cobalt catalysts for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis

The mesoporous carbon supported cobalt catalyst (15%Co/MC) was found to be more active and selective to C(5)(+) than the traditionally activated carbon supported one (15%Co/AC) for the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS). The addition of small amount of K(2)O and ZrO(2) significantly affected the FTS behavior of 15%Co/MC. The addition of 1% K inhibited the FTS activity dramatically, while the addition of 3% Zr increased the FTS activity significantly. The addition of K(2)O decreased the surface acidity while increased the surface basicity of 15%Co/MC, resulting in the increased heat of adsorption of CO and substantially decreased heat of adsorption of H(2) on Co. In contrast, the addition of ZrO(2) increased the surface acidity and heat of adsorption of H(2) on Co. The FTS activity was found to be related to the ratio of heats for the adsorption of CO and H(2) on the catalysts 15%Co/MC, 15%Co-1%K/MC and 15%Co-3%Zr/MC. The highest FTS activity was obtained on the catalyst with the heat ratio of 1.2.     

Platinum free ternary electrocatalysts prepared via organic colloidal method for oxygen reduction

Novel ternary palladium based alloy catalysts, PdFeIr/C, for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) have been successfully prepared via an organic colloid method with ethylene glycol as solvent and sodium citrate as complexing agent. The catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). Electrochemical activity of the catalysts for ORR was evaluated by steady state polarization measurements, which were carried out on an ultra thin layer rotating disk electrode (RDE). Compared to pure Pd/C and Pd₃Fe/C, results showed that the ORR activity of PdFeIr/C was highest, and its methanol tolerance was better than Pt/C catalyst.     

Direct ethanol oxidation fuel cell with anionite membrane and alkaline electrolyte

A number of cathode catalysts were synthesized from nitrogen-containing organic complexes on XC-72R carbon black for an alkaline electrolyte. The catalysts were studied by the rotating disc electrode (RDE) technique. The polyacrilonitrile (PAN), phthalocyanine (Pc), and cobalt tetra(methoxyphenyl)porphyrin (CoTMPP) systems showed the highest activity. The slope of the oxygen polarization curves in the first region in 1 M KOH was 35–40 mV; this corresponds to concentration polarization in an alkaline solution in the O₂-HO₂⁻ system. A cyclic voltammetry study demonstrated that the catalytic systems with the highest corrosion stability were Pc + Co + Fe/XC-72R and CoTMPP/XC-72R pyropolymer. The activity of the catalysts decreased by 20–25% compared with the initial current densities on average. An ethanol-oxygen fuel cell with a Fumasep FAA anionite membrane and nonplatinum catalysts was tested. The maximum power density was 32 mW/cm² at 40°C. The stability test of the fuel cell showed that the materials used for the membrane-electrode assembly allowed more than 100 h of continuous operation with constant working characteristics.
