“…The peak current density on the Pd 8 Cu/C electrode reached 690.5 mA mg Pd -1 , which was the largest in the four electrodes. Lastly, the oxides (Cu 2 O [32,33], CuO [34] or The Mg-H 2 O 2 semi-fuel cells were built using the AZ 31 Mg alloy as the anode and the four catalysts supported on C paper as the cathode, and the performances were showed in Figure 7. The similar results had been obtained from the chronoamperometry tests.…”

We had prepared PdxCoy/C and PdxCuy/C nanocatalysts with different actomic ratio of Pd and Co or Cu via modified sodium borohydride reduction method and investigated their electrocatalytic properties for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) reduction reaction with emphases on the effects of composition and structure. The activities of PdxCoy/C and PdxCuy/C catalysts increased firstly and then decreased with the amount of Pd adding. Both the Pd8Co/C and Pd8Cu/C showed the better catalytic performance than that of the other Pd and Co or Cu atomic ratio. The Pd8Co and Pd8Cu NPs were 3–4 nm in size and uniformly distributed on the C surface in an alloy way. The Pd8Co/C and Pd8Cu/C catalysts exhibited a superior activity and stability on H2O2 electroreduction reaction than the Pd/C and the commercial Pd/C (JM) catalysts, which due to Co and Cu enter into the Pd lattice and alter the electronic structure of Pd. The Mg‐H2O2 semi‐fuel cells with the two catalysts supported on the carbon paper as the cathodes expressed a peak power density of 140 mW cm−2 for the Pd8Co/C cathode and 168 mW cm−2 for the Pd8Cu/C cathode.

“…The reduction reaction of Hydrogen peroxide on the Pd/Cu 2 O catalyst has good stability and higher current density. This was due to that (1) the Pd/Cu 2 O catalyst has the larger surface area; (2) the support Cu 2 O and the metallic Cu 60 and CuO produced in preparation process improved the activity of Pd towards H 2 O 2 reduction reaction. Using this method, catalysts are prepared in aqueous solution easily with high catalytic activity and lower cost, which has great potential in industrial application.…”

Abtract: Cuprous oxide(Cu 2 O) were synthesized by a wet-chemical approach in aqueous solution and Pd electrocatalysts supported on cuporus oxide (Pd/ Cu 2 O) and Vulcan XC-72 (Pd/C) were synthesized both via modified sodium borohydride reduction method. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and cyclic voltammetry(CV) methods were used to characterize the surface morphology and composition of Cu 2 O nanoparticles and the catalysts. 10 Linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) and Chronoamperometry (CA) were employed to evaluate the activity and stability of the catalysts. The results showed that Cu 2 O nanoparticles were spherical with smooth surface and the average diameter was about 600 nm. Pd nanoparticles decorated on the surface of Cu 2 O nanospheres and agglomerated slightly and the average size of the Pd nanoparticles was about 10 nm. A certain amount of Copper oxide and the metallic Cu were formed during the preparation of the Pd/Cu 2 O 15 catalyst. The Pd catalyst supported on cuporus oxide (Pd/Cu 2 O) shows the superior performance to the catalyst supported on Vulcan XC-72, which attributed to the two reasons. One was the Pd/Cu 2 O catalyst had the larger surface area and the other was all of the support Cu 2 O itself, Copper oxide and the metallic Cu formed in the process of catalyst preparation have activity to the H 2 O 2 electroreduction reaction to a certain extent.20
