Abstract

Pt/C(a) catalysts are firstly prepared by modified impregnation method. In order to enhance the ability of Pt/C catalysts for methanol electrooxidation, H5PMo10V2O40 (PMV) is adsorbed on Pt/C catalysts to obtain the PMV-Pt/C catalysts. The Pt/C(a) and PMV-Pt/C are characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffractometry. It is shown that Pt particles with small average size are uniformly disperesed on carbon. Cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry show that the PMV-Pt/C catalysts exhibit excellent catalytic activity and stability for methanol electrooxidation.
