| 中文摘要 | Nanostructured Pt-on-Au electrocatalysts (coded as Pt-m boolean AND Au, m being the atomic Pt/Au ratio), prepared by Pt deposition oil Au colloids in two size ranges (Au-I, 10.0 +/- 1.2 nm; Au-II, 3.0 +/- 0.6 nm) (Zhao and Xu, Phys. Chem. Chmi. Phys. 2006, 8, 5106), were employed for the electrooxidation of formic acid (HCOOH) at concentration; of 0.2-3.2 M by cyclic voltammetry. The HCOOH electrooxidation over a Pt shell fully covering Au-I colloids (Pt-m boolean AND Au-I at m > 0.2, Pt dispersion < 20%) occurred mainly in the high potential range (0.6-1.0 V vs SCE). The lowering of m in Pt-m boolean AND Au-I samples resulted in a remarkable increase in the current of HCOOH electrooxidation in the lower potential range (-0.2 to 0.6 V) due to a continued enhancement in the Pt utilization associated with the changes in the Pt-dispersion state. The areal activity (intrinsic activity) of Pt flecks (Pt dispersion > 50%) was 5 times and their mass-specific activity 25 times higher than those of the conventional Pt/C and core@shell structured Pt boolean AND Au-I catalysts. The use of Pt-m boolean AND Au-II for HCOOH electrooxidation produced qualitatively similar results, thus demonstrating a dramatic enhancement of the electrocatalytic activity of Pt-m boolean AND Au/C by reducing the domain size of Pt deposits on Au surfaces. Moreover, the intrinsic activity of Pt flecks in Pt-m boolean AND Au-II was found to be 4 times higher than those in Pt-m boolean AND Au-I, which uncovers that smaller Au particles can serve as a kind of "activity promoter" to their carrying Pt flecks. The current of HCOOH electrooxidation over the Pt-m boolean AND Au catalysts also varied significantly, according to the HCOOH concentration. The highest current was obtained only in an appropriate HCOOH concentration window for a given Pt boolean AND Au/C catalyst. |
