Abstract

In this study, two different methods were studied to prepare Pt-Pd catalysts for direct methanol fuel cells in order to enhance the electrochemical efficiency. The catalysts were compared with simultaneously deposited Pt-Pd and sequentially deposited Pt-Pd. The electrocatalysts contained 20 wt% of metal loading on carbon black and 1 : 2 of Pt : Pd atomic ratio. Electrochemical properties of the catalysts were compared by measuring cyclic voltammetries and average sizes and lattice parameters were measured by transmission electron microscopy images and x-ray diffraction. As a result, sequentially deposited Pt-Pd/C catalysts showed better electrochemical properties than those of simultaneously deposited Pt-Pd/C catalysts.

본 연구에서 직접 메탄올형 연료전지용 담지 촉매의 전기 화학적 효율을 높이기 위하여 담지 촉매의 합성을 위한 2가지 다른 방법을 조사하였다. 담지 촉매에 있어서 합금을 형성하여 동시 담지하는 방법과 금속을 순차적으로 담지하는 방법을 비교하였다. 금속의 총 함량을 20 wt%를 사용하였으며, Pt-Pd의 금속비를 1 : 2로 하였다. 순환 전류-전압곡선(CVs), TEM 이미지와 XRD분석을 이용하여 두가지 다른 방법으로 제조된 촉매 간의 전기화학적 특성, 입자의 평균 크기 및 결정의 구조 변화를 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과, 순차적 금속 담지 촉매가 동시 담지 촉매보다 단위 무게당 산화전류 수치를 나타내어 보다 높은 전기활성 특성을 보였다.
