摘要
To reduce the manufacturing cost of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), tests targeting the decrease of reaction temperature and the amount of reducing agent in the polyol method for the synthesis of Pt/C catalysts were conducted. The reaction temperature in the polyol method was changed from 50 to 160 degrees C. Through XRD and TGA, it was determined that the reduction of platinum ions by the oxidation of ethylene glycol started at 70 degrees C. Below a 60 degrees C reaction temperature, Pt (1 1 1) peaks in XRD were barely visible, indicating that no deposition occurred. TEM revealed that Pt particles were well-dispersed above a 100 degrees C reaction temperature. For manufacturing platinum catalysts using the polyol method, it was found that 100 degrees C is the optimal synthesis temperature. Additionally, it was found that similar performance can be achieved by adding water to decrease the amount of ethylene glycol during synthesis. Finally, considering various analyses, it is evident that the dispersion, size, and crystallinity of platinum particles had the most significant impact on performance.
