Batteries and Fuel Cells

30.5K
A battery is a galvanic cell that is used as a source of electrical power for specific applications. Modern batteries exist in a multitude of forms to accommodate various applications, from tiny button batteries such as those that power wristwatches to the very large batteries used to supply backup energy to municipal power grids. Some batteries are designed for single-use applications and cannot be recharged (primary cells), while others are based on conveniently reversible cell reactions that...

Ion Exchange01:17

Ion Exchange

1.1K
Ion exchange chromatography separates charged molecules from a solution by reversibly exchanging them with mobile, or 'active', ions associated with the oppositely charged stationary phase. This method can be used to separate ions, soften and deionize water, and purify solutions. The polymers comprising the ion-exchange column are high-molecular-weight and chemically stable polymers, crosslinked to be porous and essentially insoluble. They are also functionalized with either acidic or...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Electrochemistry
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) require efficient cathode catalysts.
  • Developing cost-effective and highly dispersed platinum (Pt) catalysts is crucial for PEMFC performance.
  • Emeraldine base (EB) and Vulcan carbon black (XC72) offer a promising composite support for platinum nanoparticles.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To synthesize and characterize Pt/EB-XC72 composites for PEMFC cathode applications.
  • To investigate the effect of calcination temperature on Pt particle formation and distribution.
  • To evaluate the electrochemical performance of the synthesized Pt/EB-XC72 catalysts.

Main Methods:

  • Preparation of EB-XC72 core-shell composites via aniline polymerization on XC72.
  • Calcination reduction reaction to synthesize Pt/EB-XC72 composites at varying temperatures.
  • Characterization using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).
  • Electrochemical evaluation using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) measurements.

Main Results:

  • Pt particles were successfully formed on EB-XC72 at calcination temperatures above 600 °C.
  • Uniform distribution of Pt nanoparticles on EB-XC72 was achieved at 800 °C (Pt/EB-XC72/800).
  • The Pt/EB-XC72/800 catalyst exhibited typical Pt catalyst behavior in cyclic voltammograms.
  • The catalyst demonstrated a high number of transferred electrons (3.88) during ORR.
  • A maximum power density of 550 mW cm-2 was achieved with the Pt/EB-XC72/800 catalyst in a single cell.

Conclusions:

  • The calcination reduction method effectively prepares Pt/EB-XC72 composites for PEMFC cathodes.
  • Optimized calcination at 800 °C yields uniformly distributed Pt nanoparticles with enhanced catalytic activity.
  • The Pt/EB-XC72/800 composite shows significant potential as an advanced cathode material for high-performance PEMFCs.
