摘要
PtIr bimetallic electrocatalysts supported on carbon black (PtIr/C) with different contents of iridium (Ir%: 5, 15, 20, 25 and 30) are prepared using a one-step improved facile ethylene glycol reduction method. Transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction is employed to characterize the structure of PtIr/C. Electrochemical studies show that the presence of Ir significantly improves the catalytic activity of Pt toward the electrochemical oxidation of methanol. Lower peak potential and onset potential for methanol oxidation are observed on the bimetallic catalysts than on the commercial Pt/C (Johnson Matthey).
