When platinum wan impregnated on carbon by methanol, surfactant have an important effect on the stability of platinum colloid. As the increase of amounts of surfactant enhanced the stability of platinum colloid, the particle size of platinum on carbon was diminished. But, after heat treatment, residue of surfactant remained in electrode to decrease current density of oxygen reduction. To remove surfactant, as temperature of heat treatment enhanced, platinum particle was aggromerated and current density was decreased.

고분자전해질 연료전지(PEMFC)의 핵심부품인 스택의 MEA는 전극과 멤브레인 전해질, GDL(Gas Diffusion Layer)로 구성되며, 전극은 Anoth극과 Cathod극으로 나뉘어 각각의 전극 특성에 적합한 전극촉매를 적용하게 된다. Anoth극과 Cathod극은 탄소 지지체 위에 원하는 사양의 희유금속이 도포되어 존재하는데 이들 희유금속은 그 희귀성으로 인해 사용 후 반드시 재사용되어야 한다. 사용된 전극에서의 희유금속 회수는 산침출, 불순물제거, 추출, 탈거 공정으로 이루어지며, 산침출 시 산화제로 사용된 NaOCl로 인한 침출용액 내의 Na+ 이온의 증가는 불순물제거 공정에 의해 반드시 제거되어야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 CCG 방식으로 전극촉매를 GDL에 코팅한 MEA로부터 백금족 희유금속을 회수 시 MEA에 포함되어 있는 소량의 불순물을 제거하고자 한다.

Pt catalyst on carbon black was prepared by colloidal method, ion exchanging method and methanol reducing method. The colloidal method has been used generally. At ion exchanging method, $H^+$ of functional group on carbon surface made by oxidation treatment was exchanged with Pt ion. At methanol reducing method, Pt was impregnated on carbon to reduce by methanol contained with surfactants. With TEM and XRD, Pt particle size impregnated on carbon by various methods was $30{\sim}50{\AA}$. Loading yield was about 100%, loading yield of ion exchanging method was 99.92% by DCP analysis and 99.87% by combustion method. Within 60 hour, current density of oxygen reduction was $460mA/cm^2$ at 0.7V(vs. RHE) at colloidal method. It was the better performance than catalyst prepared by ion exchanging, methanol reducing method. But, it was shown some decrease of performance for long operation time(after 100hour), catalyst prepared by methanol reducing method was shown stable performance.

염료감응형 태양전지에 대한 연구 분야에서 다공질 산화물 전극이나 염료 및 전해질 연구에 비해, 상대전극에 대한 연구는 상대적으로 미비한 상태이다. 또한 일반적으로 사용되고 있는 고가의 백금 상대전극을 대체하면서도 촉매 특성이 우수한 새로운 상대전극에 대한 연구의 필요성이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 우수한 신소재로서 높은 전기전도도 및 전자방출 특성 그리고 높은 표면적을 지니고 있어 전자기기 분야의 다방면에 이용되고 있으며, 최근 대량생산 기술의 개발에 따라 가격이 급격히 하락하고 있는 다중벽 탄소나노튜브(MWCNT)을 이용하여 상대전극을 제조하였다. 이 탄소나노튜브 상대전극을 이용하여 단위 셀을 만들고, 유사 태양광 하에서의 전지의 광전 특성을 측정하였다. 이를 바탕으로 탄소나노튜브 상대전극이 염료감응형 태양전지의 특성 및 수명 안정화에 미치는 영향을 백금 상대전극의 광전 특성과 비교하여 탄소나노튜브의 상대전극으로써의 가능성을 제시하였다.

Corrosivities and catalytic activities of platinum-transition metal alloy catalyses loaded on carbon substrate and were studied by electrochemical method using a unit cell. And the analysis of Pt-alloy catalyst was conducted by x-ray diffractometer. Among the catalysts, the Pt-Mo/carbon, Pt-Fe-Co/carbon and Pt-Fe/carbon catalyst showed more excellent cathodic current densities than others. It was found that most of cathodic current density for the Pt-Mo/carbon electrode was $120mA/cm^2$. The current density of the Pt-Fe-Co/carbon was much higher than that of Pt/carbon, reaching $200mA/cm^2$.

The electrochemical conversion of $CO_2$ is one of the methods for reducing $CO_2$. Four materials (Ag, Ni, Pt, and Ir) were selected as the electrodes. The electrochemical conversion was performed under a cell voltage of 4.0 V at $600^{\circ}C$. The amounts of $CO_2$ reduction and carbon production were at the highest for Ag, followed by, Pt, Ni, and then Ir. The produced carbon samples were analyzed by thermogravimetric analysis and XRD. The thermogravimetric analysis results indicated that all the carbon produced at each electrode exhibited similar thermal reactivity. The XRD results showed that the crystallization of carbon was different depending on the electrode utilized. Although electrochemical conversion was the highest for the Ag electrode, a loss of material accompanied it. Therefore, for this study, the optimal electrode is Pt, taking into account reactivity and material losses.

A Pt catalyst ($Pt/G_xC_y$) supported on the hybrid supporting materials composed of graphene oxide (GO) and carbon black (C) was fabricated using polyol method to improve the durability of electrocatalysts. The electrochemical performances measured by cyclic voltammograms using three-electrode system revealed that the properly designed $Pt/G_xC_y$ catalyst exhibited higher durability than that of Pt/C catalyst without sacrificing an electrocatalytic acivity. In the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) performed in acid solution with the rotating disk electrode, the $Pt/G_xC_y$ catalyst showed greater mass and area-specific activity than those of Pt/C catalyst.

The ISFET glucose and sucrose sensors containing platinum electrode and photopolymeric enzyme membrane were fabricated. The platinum working electrode was used for the electrolysis of hydrogen peroxide, which was the other product of the enzyme reaction, to improve sensing characteristics of the sensors. In order to improve response time, photo-crosslinkable polymer(PVA-SbQ) was used to the matrix for the enzyme immobilized membrane. The characteristics of glucose and sucrose sensors were investigated according to the variation of platinum electrode area. The response time was about $3{\sim}5$ minutes and determinations of glucose and sucrose in the range of about $30{\sim}300mg/dl$ could be possible.
