Experimental Study on the influence of WC on catalytic performance of the PEMFC catalyst

摘要

In this work, an experimental study on the effect of adding WC to typically Pt/C catalyst for PEMFCs was carried out. The WC synthesized by reduced calcine method was mixed with the Pt/C catalyst and characterized by TEM and cyclic voltammetry techniques. The results show that the performance of the mixed catalyst especially the hydrogen oxidation effect is better than the pure Pt/C catalyst.
