In this study, Pt/Pd (1.1), PtPd (2:1) and PtPd (3:1) binary catalysts and Pt/Ru/Pd (5:4:1) ternary catalyst were designed. The catalysts were synthesized by impregnation method using $NaBH_4$ as a reducing agent. A good catalyst for methanol oxidation requires low on-set potential, stable durability and low activation energy. In order to investigate the catalytic activity for the methanol oxidation, electrochemical measurements such as cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry were peformed in sulfuric acid with/without methanol solution. In order to calculate the activation energy of the reaction, electrochemical measurements were also tested at different temperatures. For investigation of the structural analysis such as particle size and alloying, X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy analysis were used. In order to identify the role of the Pd and to determine the composition of the surface of the Pt/Pd nanoparticles, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis was investigated. The XPS spectra of Pd showed that Pd appears only as a metallic state in the binary catalysts. The chemical states of Pt in PtPd catalysts are both metallic and oxidative. Polarization curves and power density data were obtained by testing the DMFC unit cell performance of PtPd and PtRuPd catalysts. These data showed that Pt/Pd (2:1) and Pt/Ru/Pd (5:4:1) have better performance than Pt and Pt/Ru, respectively.

The PtBi/C and PtBiPd/C electrocatalysts were synthesized via the irreversible adsorption of Pd and Bi ions precursors on commercial Pt/C catalysts. XRD and XPS revealed the formation of an alloy structure among Pt, Bi, and Pd atoms. The current of direct formic acid oxidation (I_d) increased ~ 8 and 16 times for the PtBi/C and PtBiPd/C catalysts, respectively, than that of commercial Pt/C because of the electronic, geometric, and third body effects. In addition, the increased ratio between the current of direct formic acid oxidation (I_d) and the current of indirect formic acid oxidation (I_ind) for the PtBi/C and PtBiPd/C catalysts suggest that the dehydrogenation pathway is dominant with less CO formation on these 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.

The Pt/C and Pd/C catalysts were prepared from conventional chloride precursors by adsorption or precipitation-deposition methods. Their activities for hydrogenation reactions of cyclohexene and acetophenone were compared with those of commercial catalysts. The Pt/C and Pd/C catalysts obtained from the adsorption procedure reveal higher hydrogenation activity than commercial catalysts and the catalysts prepared by the precipitation-deposition method. Their improved performances are attributed to the decreased metal crystallite sizes of Pt or Pd formed on the active carbon support upon the adsorption of the precursors probably due to the same negative charges of the chloride precursor and the carbon support. Under the preparation conditions studied, the reduction of the supported catalysts using borohydrides in liquid phase is superior to a gas phase reduction by using hydrogen in the viewpoint of particle size, hydrogenation activity and convenience.

This study was carried out to investigate the aging and conversion characteristics of oxidation catalysts for a natural gas vehicle with lean-bum system. The conversion of $CH_4$ was observed over the various composition ratio of PMs(Precious metals) and washcoating methods. On the fresh catalysts, Pd affected on the activity of $CH_4$ at low temperature more than other PMs in Pd-only and Rh/Pd/Pt catalysts. The activity at low temperature increased as a mount of Pd increases. On the aged catalysts, the $CH_4$ conversion efficiency of Pd-only catalyst with mono-layer washcoat decreased more than that of the other catalysts of $CH_4$ conversion. It was observed that the thermal durability of Rh/Pd/Pt catalysts with double-layer washcoat was better than the single washcoat catalyst.

Simultaneous CO and $C_3H_6$ oxidation was carried out over noble metal supported monolith catalysts in a flow thorugh type reactor at the temperature ranging from room temperature to $500^\circ$C. Pt and Pd were selected as major active species, 10wt% of Ce was impregnated as an additive and alumina and silica were used as supports. The reactant gases were simulated and the reaction products were analyzed by on-line G.C.. EDX, SEM, TGA, XRD and optical microscope were used to analyze the characteristics of the prepared catalysts. Under the given conditions in this study, the catalysts supported on alumina showed better activity for CO oxidation, while Pd catalysts showed better activity for $C_3H_6$ oxidation. The improvement of conversion due to increase in thermal stability possibily by Ce addition was observed only for Pt catalysts.

Monometallic, bimetallic and trimetallic particles consisting of different weight compositions of Pt-Pd-Rh over pure alumina wash coats have been synthesized and their catalytic performance on methane conversion was studied from 150 to $600^{\circ}C$. Different catalyst formulations with variable Pt, Pd and Rh contents for bimetallic and trimetallic systems were tried and $Pt_{(1.5)}Rh_{(0.3)}/Al_2O_3$ and $Pt_{(1.0)}Pd_{(1.0)}Rh_{(0.3)}/Al_2O_3$ shows low $T_{50}$ and $T_{90}$ temperatures. Bimetallic and trimetallic particle synergism acts as three way catalysts and therefore, all the catalysts show 100% methane conversion. The effect of supports such as $ZrO_2$ and $TiO_2$ on methane combustion was investigated; from $T_{50}$ and $T_{90}$ results both $Al_2O_3$ and $ZrO_2$ are suitable supports for low temperature methane combustion.

Four kinds of plasma blacks were prepared by plasma pyrolysis under various metallic catalysts coated on honeycomb, and investigated the catalytic effect on the characteristics of the plasma blacks prepared under plasma pyrolysis condition. Pt, Pt-Rh, and Pd catalysts were employed as active materials to prepare the plasma blacks. In the experimental range studied, the metallic catalysts influenced on surface area, particle size, surface oxygen content and electrical conductivity of the plasma blacks prepared. It was showed that more dense particle of plasma blacks were prepared under existence of metallic catalysts. Presence of the metallic catalyst reduces the electrical resistivity of plasma blacks due to the decrease in the amount of oxygen functional groups. The highest electrical conductivity of plasma black was observed in the Pt catalyst and then followed by those Pt-Rh, Pd and bare cordierite honeycomb.

귀금속촉매 존재하에서 암모니아 전환반응은 배가스내의 암모니아를 처리하는데 중요한 기술이다. 과잉용액 함침법을 이용하여 $Pt-Rh/Al_2O_3$, $Pt-Rh/TiO_2$, $Pt-Rh/ZrO_2$, $Pt-Pd/Al_2O_3$, $Pd-Rh/Al_2O_3$, $Pd-Rh/TiO_2$, $Pd-Rh/ZrO_2$, $Pt-Pd-Rh/Al_2O_3$, $Pd/Ga-Al_2O_3$, $Rh/Ga-Al_2O_3$, 그리고 $Ru/Ga-Al_2O_3$의 촉매를 제조하였다. 제조된 촉매는 1/4"의 반응기에 $10,000{\sim}50,000hr^{-1}$의 공간속도 조건하에서 촉매활성능 실험을 수행하였다. 암모니아의 초기농도는 2,000 ppm (나머지는 공기)으로 유지하였다. $T_{50}$는 암모니아 전환율이 50%일 때를 나타내는 온도를, $T_{90}$은 90%의 전환율일 때의 온도를 나타낸다. 알루미나를 담지체로 사용했을때의 $T_{50}$와 $T_{90}$은 다른 담체를 사용했을때의 $T_{50}$와 $T_{90}$보다 훨씬 낮았다. Pd-Rh촉매의 경우 $Al_2O_3$를 담체로 사용하였을 때 $ZrO_2$나 $TiO_2$보다 저온 활성이 우수하게 나타났다. 황산화물의 피독실험 결과 본 연구에서는 최종적으로 $Pt-Rh/Al_2O_3$ 촉매가 다른 촉매에 비하여 우수함을 보였다. 실험결과 Pt-Rh가 암모니아 전환공정에서 유용한 촉매라는 사실을 알 수 있다.

PdPt/C (Pd:Pt atomic ratio of around 19:1 60wt, %) 촉매를 고분자전해질 연료전지용 전극 촉매소재의 적용하였다. PdPt/C 촉매를 산화극 촉매로, 환원극 촉매로는 Pt/C 촉매를 사용하고 반대로 산화극 촉매는 Pt/C 촉매, 환원극 촉매로는 PdPt/C 촉매를 사용했을 때, PdPt/C 촉매를 산화극과 환원극 촉매로 동시에 사용했을 때의 고분자전해질 연료전지의 단위전지 성능을 각각 비교하였다. PdPt/C촉매를 산화극에만 적용했을 때에 Pt/C 상용촉매를 산화극과 환원극에 모두 적용했을 때의 성능만큼 좋은 성능을 확인할 수 있었다. 환원극 촉매는 Pt/C를 사용하고 산화극 촉매를 PdPt/C Pt/C Pd/C를 사용하였을 매의 성능을 비교하였다. Pd/C를 산화극 촉매로 사용한 단위전지가 나머지 두 경우의 성능에 비하여 현저히 떨어짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 극소량의 Pt 량을 포함한 PdPt/C 촉매가 고분자전해질 연료전지의 산화극 Pt/C 촉매의 대체촉매로 사용 가능함을 보여준다.
