Perovskite-type oxide-based La0.6Sr0.4Mn(1-x)CoxO3/carbon (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 1) catalysts were prepared by calcination of a mixture of metal nitrates and PVP at 600 degrees C, followed by milling of the calcined powder with a carbon support. The catalytic activities for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) were tested in alkaline electrolyte by using a rotating ring-disk electrode (RRDE) at 25 degrees C. With an increase in the doping amount of Co, the onset potential of the La0.6Sr0.4Mn(1-x)CoxO3/carbon catalyst was found to be shifted in a positive direction and the ring current during ORR decreased. Especially, the La0.6Sr0.4Mn0.7Co0.3O3/carbon (x = 0.3) catalyst showed the highest ORR activity among the prepared catalysts. The La0.6Sr0.4Mn0.7Co0.3O3/carbon was tested as the cathode of an alkaline membrane-type direct hydrazine fuel cell (DHFC), and a maximum power density of 133 mW cm(-2), which exceeded that for the MEA using Pt/C (73.4 mW cm(-2)), was obtained at 50 degrees C. In addition, the open circuit voltage (OCV) for the DHFC (0.846 V) was greater than that of a commercial Pt/C cathode (0.788 V). Thus, the perovskite-type La0.6Sr0.4Mn0.7Co0.3O3 catalyst is expected to be a good candidate for use as a catalytic material for a DHFC cathode as an alternative to Pt.
