Efficiency of bimetallic PtPd on polydopamine modified on various carbon supports for alcohol oxidations
© 2016 In this work, the preparation, characterization, and electrocatalytic analysis of the catalysts on various carbon substrates for direct alcohol fuel cells were studied. Selected carbons were modified with/without polydopamine (labelled as PDA-C and C) and further metal electrodeposited incorp...

Saipanya Agricultural and Biological Sciences © 2016 In this work, the preparation, characterization, and electrocatalytic analysis of the catalysts on various carbon substrates for direct alcohol fuel cells were studied. Selected carbons were modified with/without polydopamine (labelled as PDA-C and C) and further metal electrodeposited incorporated onto the glassy carbon (labelled as 5Pt1Pd/PDA-C and 5Pt1Pd/C).

Among different PDA-C and C catalysts, monometallic Pt showed less activity than the bimetallic catalysts.
