Novel highly active carbon supported ternary PdNiBi nanoparticles as anode catalyst for the alkaline direct ethanol fuel cell
Abstract
The study focuses on the influence of Ni and Bi on alkaline ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) activities, stabilities and structure characteristics of carbon supported Pd-based nanocatalysts (Pd/C, Pd60Ni40/C, Pd60Bi40/C, Pd60Ni20Bi20/C) by cyclic voltammetry/chronoamperometry using rotating disk electrode and various physico-chemical methods such as X-ray powder diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. Nickel generates more adsorbed OH on the Pd catalyst surface than Bi and promotes the oxidation of adsorbed ethanol species. This results in a low onset potential toward ethanol oxidation with high current density. The presence of Bi facilitates high tolerance toward various reaction intermediates resulting from the incomplete ethanol oxidation, but might also initiate the agglomeration of Pd nanoparticles. The novel Pd60Ni20Bi20/C nanocatalyst displays exceptional byproduct tolerance, but only satisfying catalytic activity toward ethanol oxidation in an alkaline medium. Therefore, the EOR performance of the novel carbon supported ternary PdxNiyBiz anode catalyst with various atomic variations (Pd70Ni25Bi5/C, Pd70Ni20Bi10/C, Pd80Ni10Bi10/C and Pd40Ni20Bi40/C) using the common instant reduction synthesis method was further optimized for the alkaline direct ethanol fuel cell. The carbon supported Pd:Ni:Bi nanocatalyst with atomic ratio of 70:20:10 displays outstanding catalytic activity for the alkaline EOR compared to the other PdxNiyBiz/C nanocatalysts as well as to the benchmarks Pd/C, Pd60Ni40/C and Pd60Bi40/C. The synergy and the optimal content in consideration of the oxide species of Pd, Ni and Bi are crucial for the EOR kinetic enhancement in alkaline medium.
