Highly active and durable templated non-PGM cathode catalysts derived from iron and aminoantipyrine

Highly-active Pd–Cu electrocatalysts for oxidation of ubiquitous oxygenated fuels

“…The activity of unsupported palladium was compared to that of family of nanostructured Pd-Cu electrocatalysts (with the ratio between Pd and Cu: 1:3, 1:1 and 3:1) synthesized by the same method. The materials were prepared using the Sacrificial Support Method (SSM) [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26], previously developed at UNM with a modification for the preparation of unsupported platinum group metals electrocatalysts. The SSM is a powerful and flexible method, which can be adopted for the synthesis of tailored high-surface area self-supported electrocatalysts and other classes of nanostructured materials.…”

Non-PGM membrane electrode assemblies: Optimization for performance

“…Such porous structure is beneficial for effective transport of oxygen to active sites as well as for water management. As mentioned above, the porosity and pores size distribution can be controlled by varying the silica to organic precursor ratio and/or by type of silica [22].…”

Influence of the reaction temperature on the oxygen reduction reaction on nitrogen-doped carbon nanotube catalysts

“…Fe) porphyrins and Phthalocyanines can be pyrolyzed to produce highly active catalysts [19,20]. The last decades saw a remarkable rise in the interest toward the M-N-C ORR materials, a diversification of their methods of preparation by using various transition metal and nitrogen precursors [10,12,21] and a significant progress http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cattod.2014. 11.020 0920-5861/© 2014 Elsevier B.V.
