The kinetics and mechanism of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on the surface of Pt and PtAgFe catalysts supported by ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) were investigated. Metal particles were loaded by the wet impregnation-reduction method on two types of OMC, one being surface-modified by HNO3 and the other unmodified. Cyclic voltammetry measurements showed that Pt on modified OMC, namely Pt/OMC-M, had the highest electroactive surface area among OMC-supported catalyts with 987 cm2/mg. This catalyst had also a mass activity of 39.1 mA/mgPt, which was the same as the carbon black supported commercial Pt/C catalyst. Rotating disk electrode (RDE) studies revealed that …
