This paper studies the electrochemical properties of ppy/Pt‐Cu composite for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and compares it to the highly porous ppy/Pt‐Cu catalyst, which can be synthesized by galvanostatic method (ppy/Pt‐Cu(GS)). The results of the polarization, rotating disk electrode and electrochemical impedance tests are discussed to determine the electrochemical properties of the catalysts. According to the results, ppy/Pt‐Cu(GS) catalyst is more active toward ORR compared to ppy/Pt‐Cu catalyst. The rotating disk electrode data indicates four‐electron transfer mechanism for this catalyst.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
