摘要
The influence of the atmosphere composition (CO, Ar, air), in which wet synthesis of Pt/C electrocatalyst was carried out, on the structural and morphological characteristics, and electrochemical behavior of electrocatalysts have been studied. For comparison, commercial Pt/C electrocatalysts with the same platinum loading were also studied. It has been shown that the adsorption of CO molecules on the surface of the growing platinum nuclei leads to the decrease in the average size of the nanoparticles and the narrowing of the size distribution in the Pt/C. Homemade electrocatalysts, with the values of electrochemically active surface area being from 94 to 139 m(2) g(-1) (Pt), prove to be in no way inferior to their commercial counterparts in oxygen reduction reaction mass activity. Durability of the homemade Pt/C samples in accelerated stress tests exceeds durability of the commercial ones.
