Abstract

A Pt/TNTs/Ti electrode is prepared by electrochemically depositing Pt using the modulated pulse current method onto high density, well ordered and uniformly distributed TiO2 nanotubes (TNTs) on a Ti substrate. The results show that the performance and anti-poison ability of the Pt/TNTs/Ti electrode for methanol electro-oxidation under illumination is remarkably enhanced and is even better than the best bi-metallic Pt–Ru catalysts. CO poisoning is no longer a problem during methanol electro-oxidation with the Pt/TNTs/Ti electrode under illumination.
