Reduced graphene oxide (rGO), as a newly emerged carbon material, has attracted great attention concerning its applications for electrocatalysts. Presently, there are mixed opinions regarding the advantages to using rGO as a support for preparing nonprecious metal catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The primary goal of this work is to determine whether rGO would be favorable for non-precious...
Facile fabrication of magnetic carbon composites (MCs) via pyrolysis of hydrochar in the presence of ZnCl2 and an iron salt has been attracting enormous interest to simultaneously realize high-surface area and magnetization. During this synthesis, the interactions between the carbon matrix and iron salts have remained unknown. In this work, a closer look was taken on iron salt interactions and their...
Nitrogen-doped onion-like carbon-rich materials were synthesized by heat treatment of a “hybrid” containing hexamethylene diamine complex in the presence of Co and Fe species while preparing non-precious metal electrocatalyst for oxygen-reduction. As demonstrated by electrochemical rotating disk electrode and fuel cell tests, the binary CoFe-based catalyst containing graphitized onion-like carbon...
Characteristics of nanosized Pt electro-catalyst deposited on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were studied with CO-stripping voltammogram and chronoamperometry measurements. The CNTs were pretreated by oxidation in HNO 3 , mixed HNO 3 +H 2 SO 4 and H 2 SO 4 +K 2 Cr 2 O 7 solution, respectively, to enable surface modification. Well-homogenized...
Vulcan XC-72 carbon black particles (average size: ca. 50nm) was incorporated into polyaniline (PANI) matrix by an electrochemical codeposition technique during the electropolymerization process. The doping by carbon particles leads to a higher polymeric degree and a lower defect density in the PANI structure. Furthermore, the incorporation of carbon particles not only increases the electrochemical...
