Article Synopsis
- - The study explores how different sizes of platinum (Pt) particles on carbon supports impact methanol oxidation, focusing on the relationship between catalyst properties and their electrochemical efficiency.
- - Removing oxygen groups from carbon supports improves Pt dispersion and activity, with carbon-nanofibers (CNFs) showing enhanced interaction with Pt, leading to better performance compared to carbon black.
- - Pt particles on heat-treated CNFs display twice the mass activity of commercial counterparts due to an ideal size, oxygen-free surface, and unique CNF characteristics.
