Abstract:Platinum supported on nanoporous carbon (NPC) is promising candidate for using as electrodes in proton exchange membrane fuel cells. Performance of the anode of a fuel cell is markedly influenced by the efficiency of the splitting of hydrogen atoms by platinum and the transference of the produced protons to the carbon support (spillover process). Consequently a better understanding of these elemental processes could prompt the improvement of the materials used. With this aim, a series of Pt/NPC samples varying… Show more
