摘要
Understanding the effect of metal solution contaminants on the methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activities of directmethanol fuel cells (DMFCs) is critical in the enhancement of this technology. In this study, the effect of various concentrations of metal salt solutions (i.e., Co, Ni and Zn with sulfate and nitrate as counter-anions) on polycrystalline Pt and PtxRuy electro-catalytic activities during MOR and ORR are systematically investigated. The results show a decrease in MOR and ORR activities as the concentration of metal salt solutions increased. The influence of counter-anions (i.e., NO3- and SO42-) adsorption on the Pt electro-catalyst activity was further investigated. The results showed that a combined effect of adsorbed counter-anions as well as hydrated metal cations may be responsible for the decrease in the electro-catalytic activity of Pt during the MOR and ORR.
