<i>In</i>-<i>Situ</i> XAFS Characterization of PtPd Nanoparticles Synthesized by Galvanic Replacement

Abstract: Platinum-palladium nanoparticles are synthesized and characterized with regard to their application in fuel cells due to their high (electro) catalytic activity. Different preparation times are applied leading to different structures, from Pd cubic to core-shell PtPd concave, and different chemical compositions. The resulting particles are studied via Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and in-situ X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) measurements. The latter allows the investigation of the oxygen reducti… Show more

“…In contrast to the monometallic system, it is difficult to provide a straightforward explanation for these peaks that are typically observed in PtPd bimetallic systems. [ 47–50 ] This is because PtPt and PtPd bond distances are very similar to each other, as also reported in our fitting results. Nonetheless, it is possible to discuss the atomic coordination from the EXAFS spectrum.…”

“…The kinetic current density j k is calculated with the values of the current densities j at 0.85 V and j L at 0.50 V for the anodic scan. The received kinetic current density at 0.85 V was normalized to the mass of catalyst (m PtPd ) to compare the catalytic performances of the particles for the ORR: [8] For the different samples, the ORR mass activities were determined (Table IV) whereas the Pd nanocubes show the lowest mass activity (4.8 A. g −1 ) due to the absence of Pt. It is known from literature that Pd possesses a significantly lower catalytic activity for the oxygen reduction reaction in acid media than Pt or bimetallic NPs based on Pd alloys 30 or core-shell structures.…”
