In Situ 50°C FTIR Spectroscopy of Pt and PtRu Direct Methanol Fuel Cell Membrane Electrode Assembly Anodes

Abstract: A tandem surface-transmission Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) method permits the simultaneous investigation of adsorbed and desorbed species formed at the electrode surface of direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs). Potential dependent, in situ specular reflectance spectra and on-line transmission FTIR spectroscopy of adsorbed and desorbed species on working fuel cell electrode surfaces, confirm that linear bound CO, the primary intermediate on unsupported Pt and PtRu surfaces … Show more

“…In addition, studies that provide more detailed knowledge of vibrational mode assignments, such as those that combine computational methods and spectral measurements on model compounds [51], should continue, as they enable greater understanding to be derived from infrared spectra in relation to structure and function in PEM materials. Further use and development of in situ infrared methods for probing membrane-catalyst interactions in operating fuel cells [23,32,33] and on electrodes [21,22] would also be valuable.…”

“…Compared to in situ diffuse reflectance infrared sampling [23,32,33], Raman measurements can be less invasive. To develop the full potential of Raman spectroscopy for the study of fuel cell membrane materials, there is a need for greater access to instruments with sources that effectively reduce background fluorescence.…”
