Sn-doped TiO2 modified carbon to support Pt anode catalysts for direct methanol fuel cells
Abstract
Catalyst supports are known to play important role in governing overall catalyst activity and durability. Here, a new type of SnO2–TiO2 solid solution (TixSn1-xO2) support was prepared via a solvothermal method with substitution of Ti4+ by Sn4+ in the TiO2 lattice. Furthermore, the TixSn1-xO2 was combined with conventional carbon black (Vulcan XC-72) to prepare a hybrid support (TixSn1-xO2–C) for depositing Pt nanoparticles. The ratios of Sn …
