Effect Of Au At Different States On Electrocatalytic Performance Of Pd Catalyst For Oxidation Of Formic Acid, Xin Wang, Ya-Wen Tang, Tian-Hong Lu
Journal of Electrochemistry
Using liquid-reduction or complex-redution method,four catalysts,i.e,the Au/C,Pd/C,Pd-Au/C-T and Pd-Au/C-H were preparated and which electroanalytic activities and stabilities for the oxidation of formic acid were compares.It was found that the Au/C catalyst has no electrocatalytic activity,and the Pd/C catalyst possesses the good electrocatalytic performance for the oxidation of formic acid.The addition of Au into the Pd/C catalyst can increase the electrocatalytic activity and stability.Especially,the electrocatalytic activity and stability of the Pd-Au/C-T catalyst with the alloy of Pd and Au are better than that of the of the Pd-Au/C-H catalyst,in which,Pd and Au do not form the alloy.The investigation of its reason …
