铂纳米粒子的合成是通过醇还原H2 PtCl 6在聚阳离子,聚(二烯丙基二甲基氯化铵)(PDDA)的存在下。PDDA-Pt纳米颗粒胶体的尺寸在2-4 nm的范围内,这取决于溶液中PDDA与Pt的比率。PDDA-Pt纳米粒子可以通过静电相互作用自组装到Nation膜表面的磺酸基团SO 3-上,形成自组装单分子层(SAM)。研究表明,这样的SAM减少甲醇渗透和提高直接甲醇燃料电池(DMFC)的功率输出高达34%相比,基于未改性的Nafion膜的电池。此外,与商业Pt/C催化剂相比,以低PDDA/Pt比率合成的PDDA-Pt纳米颗粒显示出对于甲醇氧化反应(莫尔)的相当大的催化活性。然而,随着PDDA/Pt摩尔比的增加,PDDA-Pt纳米粒子的电催化活性显著降低,表明过量的PDDA抑制了莫尔还原。(c)2006爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
Pt nanoparticles are synthesized by the alcoholic reduction of H2PtCl6 in the presence of a polycation, poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA). The size of the PDDA-Pt nanoparticle colloids is in the range of 2-4 nm, depending on the PDDA to Pt ratio in the solution. The PDDA-Pt nonoparticles can be self-assembled to the sulfonic acid group, SO3-, at the Nation membrane surface by the electrostatic interaction, forming a self-assembled monolayer (SAM). The study shows that such SAM reduced the methanol crossover and enhanced the power output of direct methanol fuel cells (DMFC) by as much as 34% as compared to the cell based on an un-modified Nafion membrane. In addition, PDDA-Pt nanoparticles synthesized with low PDDA/Pt ratios show considerable catalytic activity for the methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) in comparison to a commercial Pt/C catalyst. However, the electrocatalytic activity of PDDA-Pt nanoparticles decreased significantly with the increase in the PDDA/Pt molar ratio, indicating that the excess PDDA inhibits the MOR.
