Platinum Adlayered Ruthenium Nanoparticles, Method For Preparing, And Uses Thereof

View page
US Patent:
20110256469, Oct 20, 2011
Filed:
Apr 7, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/081809
Inventors:
YuYe Tong - Gaithersburg MD, US
Bingchen Du - Rockville MD, US
Assignee:
Georgetown University - Washington DC
International Classification:
H01M 4/92
B01J 23/46
B01J 37/16
B01J 37/02
B01J 37/08
H01M 8/22
B01J 37/34
B82Y 30/00
US Classification:
429506, 429524, 502339, 502 5, 977773
Abstract:
A superior, industrially scalable one-pot ethylene glycol-based wet chemistry method to prepare platinum-adlayered ruthenium nanoparticles has been developed that offers an exquisite control of the platinum packing density of the adlayers and effectively prevents sintering of the nanoparticles during the deposition process. The wet chemistry based method for the controlled deposition of submonolayer platinum is advantageous in terms of processing and maximizing the use of platinum and can, in principle, be scaled up straightforwardly to an industrial level. The reactivity of the Pt(31)-Ru sample was about 150% higher than that of the industrial benchmark PtRu (1:1) alloy sample but with 3.5 times less platinum loading. Using the Pt(31)-Ru nanoparticles would lower the electrode material cost compared to using the industrial benchmark alloy nanoparticles for direct methanol fuel cell applications.
