Platinum supported on mesoporous carbon as cathode catalyst for direct methanol fuel cells

Platinum nanoparticles supported on mesoporous carbon were obtained by an impregnation and reduction method with NaBH4 as the reducing agent. The high specific surface area mesoporous carbon was obtained by carbonization of a resorcinol-formaldehyde polymer with a cationic polyelectrolyte as a soft...

The high specific surface area mesoporous carbon was obtained by carbonization of a resorcinol-formaldehyde polymer with a cationic polyelectrolyte as a soft template. Surface characterization performed by transmission electron microscopy and powder X-ray diffraction showed a homogeneous distribution and high dispersion of the metal particles on the mesoporous support.
