Carbon supported Pt alloyed with first row transition elements (Pt–M/C) is being used as improved cathode catalyst for low temperature fuel cells. These catalysts have been usually prepared by deposition of the non-precious metal onto pre-formed carbon supported platinum, followed by alloying at temperatures of the order or above 700 °C. As the thermal treatment at high temperature gives rise to an undesired metal particle growth, synthetic methods based on the simultaneous deposition of Pt and M on the carbon substrate, followed by thermal treatment at lower temperature have been developed. In this paper the formation of Pt–M/C by low/intermediate temperature methods is reviewed.Moreover, to investigate the effect of the conditions used in the synthesis on the Pt:M atomic ratio, the degree of alloying and the particle size, carbon supported Pt–Co electrocatalysts with nominal Pt:Co atomic ratio 75:25 were prepared by a low temperature chemical reduction of the precursors with sodium borohydride at two different temperatures and NaBH4 concentrations. The physical characterization of these electrocatalysts was performed by energy dispersive X-ray analysis and X-ray diffraction.
