Catalytic polyaniline-supported electrodes for application in electrocatalysis

Polyaniline (Pani) films prepared on Au wires were employed as substrates to deposit Pt, Pt-Ru, Pt-Os, Pt-Mo and Pt-Ru-Os or Pt-Ru-Mo by using appropriate working solutions and a potential-programmed perturbation. The atomic percentages of the different metals on Pani were determined by EDAX and the...

Descrição
Resumo:Polyaniline (Pani) films prepared on Au wires were employed as substrates to deposit Pt, Pt-Ru, Pt-Os, Pt-Mo and Pt-Ru-Os or Pt-Ru-Mo by using appropriate working solutions and a potential-programmed perturbation. The atomic percentages of the different metals on Pani were determined by EDAX and their particle size and distribution by SEM. The catalytic activity was tested for adsorbed CO and CH₃OH electrooxidation. Accordingly, the best binary and ternary metal combination resulted in Pt-Ru and Pt-Ru-Os.
