The Role of a Sn Promoter on an Anodic Pt Electrocatalyst Prepared over H2O2-Functionalized Carbon Supports for Direct Ethanol Fuel Cell (DEFC) Applications

Maria Florencia Azcoaga Chort et al.

Summary: Multiwalled carbon nanotubes and Vulcan carbon were functionalized with a 30 %v/v hydrogen peroxide solution and used as supports for Pt and PtSn catalysts. PtSn catalysts with a Pt loading of 20 wt.% and a Pt : Sn atomic ratio of 3 : 1 were investigated for ethanol electrooxidation reaction. The effects of oxidizing treatment on surface area and surface chemical nature were analyzed. The results showed that the H2O2 treatment significantly influenced the surface area of the carbons. Characterization results indicated that the electrocatalyst performance depended on both the presence of Sn and the support functionalization. PtSn/CNT-H2O2 electrocatalyst exhibited a high electrochemical surface area and enhanced catalytic activity for ethanol oxidation compared to other catalysts.

Classical and new insights into the methodology for characterizing adsorbents and metal catalysts by chemical adsorption

A. Gil

Summary: The adsorption phenomenon, using porous mediums or materials with specific adsorption centers, is widely used to achieve and explain solid-state reactions, control contamination, and purify liquids and gases. Physical gas adsorption is a well-established method to determine the properties of adsorbent or catalyst materials lacking specific adsorption sites. However, the characterization of specific centers by selective adsorption-chemisorption remains a topic of discussion and study.

Hot-pressing polyelectrolyte complexes into tunable dense saloplastics

Ameya Krishna et al.

Summary: Salt-plasticized polyelectrolyte complexes of sodium polystrenesulfonate and polydiallyldimethylammonium chloride were hot-pressed to create fully dense materials. The quality of the materials depends on the molecular weights of the polyelectrolytes, the type and concentration of salt, and the processing conditions. These dense materials can be easily fabricated into free-standing films with uniform mechanical properties. Thin fibers can also be added to enhance tensile strength.

Maryam Jafari et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates the synthesis of nonprecious metal catalysts (NPMCs) through high-temperature thermal treatment of bimetallic zeolite imidazole frameworks. The Fe-N-C electrocatalyst exhibits superior performance compared to its counterpart (Co-N-C) for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and shows excellent stability in both alkaline and acidic environments. This work provides a new approach for the development of nonprecious metal and nitrogen-doped carbonaceous structures with excellent ORR activity and direct ethanol fuel cell performance.
