In this study, the novel electrochemical and colorimetric analysis methods are suggested to estimate the degree of phosphoric acid ion poisoning on Pt based catalyst surface and to confirm the possibility of replacing the expensive and long time consumed conventional methods. As the ways, the electrochemical half cell tests such as cyclic voltammetry (CV) and linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) are used and the change in chemical behavior by absorption of the phosphoric acid ion on Pt based catalyst surface and hydrogen peroxide decomposition reaction are successfully recognized by colorimetric measurements. Conclusively, it is proved that the new methods show superior sensitivity for identifying the degree of phosphoric acid poisoned on Pt based catalyst.
