The electrodeposition of platinum microparticles into polyaniline (PA) films on glassy carbon (gc) electrodes and their catalytic activity for the reduction of hydrogen and the oxidation of methanol are described. Electrodeposited platinum microparticles are dispersed in a three-dimensional array in fibril-type polyaniline film electrodes as evidenced by scanning electron microscope photomicrographs. These Pt/PA/gc electrodes exhibit good activity with respect to the catalytic reduction of hydrogen and the catalytic oxidation of methanol. Since polyaniline is a conducting polymer at potentials positive of 0.2 V vs Ag/AgCl, the PA films contribute a substantial amount of charge during the oxidation of methanol at 0.6 V. In addition, they also offer a protecting matrix for the Pt microparticles against particle loss and contamination from the bulk solution. The electrodes exhibited excellent long-term stability in the acidic methanol solutions.
