Facile approach to enhance the Pt utilization and CO-tolerance of Pt/C catalysts by physically mixing with transition-metal oxide nanoparticles

Abstract

A very simple and promising method to design the anode catalyst architecture for direct alcohol fuel cells by physically mixing Pt/C catalyst with transition-metal oxide nanoparticles is presented and electrochemical measurements confirm that this unique catalyst structure has excellent activity toward alcohol and CO electro-oxidation.
