AB  - The Ag, Pd and AgPd alloys of different morphologies and compositions were electrodeposited onto Au
and glassy carbon (GC) disc electrodes from the solution containing 0.001 M PdCl2 þ 0.04 M AgCl þ 0.1 M
HCl þ 12 M LiCl under the conditions of non-stationary (RPM ¼ 0, samples AgPd1 and AgPd2) and
convective diffusion (RPM ¼ 1000, sample AgPd3). Electrodeposited alloy layers were characterized by
the  scanning  electron  microscopy  (SEM),  energy  dispersive  X-ray  spectroscopy  (EDS),  and  X-ray
photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) was investigated on all coatings in
0.1 M NaOH solution saturated with oxygen. The j-E curves for the ORR were recorded by two proced-
ures: (1) samples were cycled with 5 mV s
 1
from open circuit potential (OCP) to  0.8 V for Ag and AgPd
alloys (or  0.6 V for pure Pd) and back; (2) samples were cycled with 5 mV s
 1
from open circuit po-
tential to 0.45 V (formation of Ag2O, in the case of Pd formation of PdO and PdO2), from 0.45 V to  0.60 V
and back to the OCP. Significant catalytic activity for the Ag and AgPd alloys was detected after cycling
electrodes in the potential region of Ag2O formation and reduction. Increase of the catalytic activity for
AgPd alloys was, for the first time in the literature, ascribed to the presence of a certain amount of Ag2O
which could not be completely reduced during the reverse sweep from 0.45 V to  0.6 V. Catalytic activity
of AgPd alloys was found to be closely related to the amount of non-reduced Ag2O (most probably in the
form of Ag-hydroxide). In the absence of such treatment, the catalytic activity for the ORR on electro-
deposited Ag and AgPd alloy coatings was not detected.

AB  - The Pd and three AgPd alloy layers (AgPd1, AgPd2 and AgPd3) were electrodeposited onto Au disc electrodes from the solution containing high concentration of chloride ions (>12 M). All coatings were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), anodic linear sweep voltammetry (ALSV), while their surface composition was investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The AgPd1 and AgPd2 samples were electrodeposited at different constant current densities (-0.178 mA cm(-2) and -0.415 mA cm(-2) respectively) to the charge of -0.2 C cm(-2) (thickness similar to 0.18 mu m) at a stationary disc electrode, while the sample AgPd3 was electrodeposited to the charge of -3.0 C cm(-2) (thickness similar to 2.8 mu m) at a constant current density of -7.0 mA cm(-2) under the conditions of convective diffusion. Samples AgPd1 and AgPd2 had similar morphologies of low roughness, while the morphology of AgPd3 was characterized by large crystals and higher roughness. The most active and the most poisoning tolerant coatings for ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) are the AgPd3 and AgPd1 alloy samples, containing 72.6 at.% Ag - 27.4 at.% Pd and 84.7 at.% Ag - 15.2 at.% Pd respectively (XPS analysis). In this study, we demonstrated for the first time that the activity for the EOR at AgPd alloys was closely related to the amount of non-reduced Ag2O (most probably as Ag - hydroxide). Accordingly, all AgPd alloy samples had to be cycled in the potential region of Ag2O formation and reduction before the investigation of the EOR, in order to provide their catalytic activity towards the EOR.

AB  - The oxidation of pure H2 and H2/CO mixture (100 ppm CO) was investigated on Pt nanocatalyst supported on Ru0.7Ti0.3O2 (Pt /Ru0.7Ti0.3O2) by linear sweep voltammetry at a rotating disc electrode in 0.1 M HClO4. The results were compared with those on the commercial Pt/C catalyst. It was demonstrated that Pt/Ru0.7Ti0.3O2 electrode possesses good conductivity and stability of the supports in the electrochemical experiments. The onset potential of COads oxidation on Pt/Ru0.7Ti0.3O2 is lower than Pt/C indicating that the Pt nanoparticles are in close contact with Ru atoms from support, which enable bifunctional mechanism and electronic effects to be operable. The influence of the poisoning of Pt/Ru0.7Ti0.3O2 and Pt/C catalyst by COads on the HOR was examined at several surface coverages ranging from 0 to 0.6. The decrease in HOR current on COads poisoned surface in low over-potential region of 0.05-0.50 V is less pronounced on Pt/Ru0.7Ti0.3O2 than on Pt/C. This is ascribed to a weakening of the Pt-CO interaction and consequently higher mobility of COads on Pt particles contacting Ru from the Ru0.7Ti0.3O2 support.

Korišćene su metoda linearne voltametrije u rastvoru 0,1 M HClO4 i rotirajuća disk elektroda. Rezultati su upoređeni sa komercijalnim katalizatorom Pt/C. Za katalizator Pt/Ru0,7Ti0,3O2 je utvrđena dobra provodnost i stabilnost nosača u elektrohemijskim eksperimentima. Pokazano je da oksidacija adorbovanog CO na Pt/Ru0,7Ti0,3O2 počinje na negativnijim potencijalima nego na Pt/C. To ukazuje da su nanočestice Pt u bliskom kontaktu sa atomima Ru iz nosača, što omogućuje odigravanje bifunkcionalnog mehanizma i ispoljavanje elektronskog efekta. Uticaj trovanja katalizatora Pt/Ru0,7Ti0,3O2 i Pt/C adsorbovanim CO na oksidaciju H2 je ispitivan na nekoliko stepena pokrivenosti u opsegu od 0 do 0,6.

AB  - PtAu systems are recognized as good catalysts for the oxidation of formic acid electrooxidation, which is investigated as a possible anodic reaction in low-temperature fuel cells. In this research, bimetallic PtAu nanoparticles, supported on high area carbon Vulcan XC-72R, were synthesized by water in oil microemulsion method. The precursor reduction process took place in a single microemulsion, simultaneously, in the presence of 35% of HCl in the water phase, as a capping agent. Electrochemical behavior of the PtAu/C catalyst was investigated at as prepared electrodes by cyclic voltammetry in 0.5M H2SO4 as a supporting electrolyte, and also in the oxidation of adsorbed CO. The results were compared to the Pt/C catalyst prepared by the same synthesis procedure. PtAu/C catalyst powder was also characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM) and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (EDS). Average particle diameter, of 2nm, was calculated from XRD data, which is close to the value of 2.82 nm obtained from TEM images. Compared to identically synthesized Pt nanoparticles, the bimetallic ones are significantly smaller. EDS maps of PtAu/C sample confirm the presence of both elements, and indicate a very fine distribution of Au in the sample. Elemental composition of about 20% Au and 80% Pt was also determined from these maps. Prepared catalyst was tested for formic acid electro-oxidation in terms of its activity and stability over the long term cycling. The voltammograms recorded indicate the change of reaction mechanism and better utilization of the catalyst surface in comparison to Pt/C.

AB  - In this work, the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) was studied on Ru coated Ti2AlC electrodes in 1.0 mol dm(-3) H2SO4 at 25 degrees C. Ti2AlC was found to be a highly stable substrate in sulfuric acid solutions due to the formation of a passivating oxide layer on the surface, which was confirmed by the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis of as-prepared and anodically treated Ti2AlC samples. Ru films were electrodeposited onto Ti2AlC substrates by cycling the potential of Ti2AlC in the solution containing 0.01 mol dm(-3) RuCl3 + 0.1 mol dm(-3) H2SO4 between -0.5 V and 0.4 V vs. a saturated calomel electrode (SCE) at the sweep rate of 20 mV s(-1). Four Ru/Ti2AlC samples were prepared, obtained at 5, 10, 15 and 20 cycles of Ru electrodeposition. Characterization of samples was performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and cyclic voltammetry (CV), while the thickness of the electrodeposited Ru layers was determined by atomic force microscopy (AFM). It was found that the most compact sample with the thickness of about 0.42 mu m was obtained after 5 cycles. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and steady-state polarization measurements showed that all Ru/Ti2AlC electrodes were exceptionally active for the HER. A Tafel slope of about -60 mV dec(-1) was observed on all polarization curves in the range of high cathodic current densities. Based on formal kinetics analysis, an appropriate mechanism for the HER on Ru/Ti2AlC was suggested.

AB  - Pd-Ni/C catalyst was synthesized employing a borohydride reduction method. The high area Ni was first dispersed on the carbon support and then modified by Pd nanoparticles. Transmission electron microscopy confirmed relatively even distribution of Ni across the carbon support with discrete palladium particles of about 3.3 nm mean diameter on it. Cyclic voltammetry confirmed the presence of Ni on the catalyst surface. The activity of the Pd-Ni/C catalysts for ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) in alkaline solution was tested under the potentiodynamic and potentiostatic conditions and the results were compared to those obtained on the Pd/C catalyst. It was found that Pd-Ni/C is more active for the EOR compared to Pd/C by a factor up to 3, depending on the type of experiments and whether specific activity or mass activity are considered. During the potentiodynamic stability test an interesting phenomenon of activation of Pd-Ni/C catalyst was observed. It was found that maximum activity is attained after fifty cycles with the positive potential limit of 1.2 V, regardless of whether they were performed in the electrolyte with or without ethanol. It was postulated that potential cycling of the Pd-Ni surface causes reorganization of the catalyst surface bringing Pd and Ni sites to a more suitable arrangement for the efficient ethanol oxidation.

AB  - Tungsten carbide was prepared by polycondensation of resorcinol and formaldehyde in the presence cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTABr) surfactant. Pd nanocatalyst at this support was synthesized by borohydride reduction method. The obtained materials were characterized by XRD, HRTEM, EELS, XPS and electrochemical measurements. TEM analysis revealed Pd nanoparticles size in the range of a few nanometers, even the clusters of Pd atoms. X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy was applied to determine surface composition of the substrates. The presence of palladium based species was revealed. The catalytic activity for the hydrogen oxidation reaction and oxygen reduction were investigated in 0.5 M HClO4 by cyclic voltammetry and linear sweep voltammetry at the rotating disc electrode. The catalysts’ activities were compared to the carbon supported Pd nanoparticles (Vulcan XC 72). WC supported Pd nanoparticles have shown higher CO tolerance, compared even to Pt based catalyst.

AB  - Two binary Ru-Ti oxides, Rum Ti0.9O2 and Ru0.7Ti0.3O2, were synthesized by the sol-gel method and used as an electrocatalyst support. The system was characterized by XRD, EDS, TEM and cyclic voltammetry. The Rum Ti0.9O2 and Ru0.7Ti0.3O2 consist of two phases of anatase and rutile structure. An average size of the Pt nanoparticles supported on them is similar to 3.5 nm and they are deposited on both Ru and Ti-rich domains. The supports exhibited good conductivity and electrochemical stability. The onset potentials of COads oxidation on the synthesized catalysts and on commercial PtRu/C are similar to each other and lower than that on Pt/C. This suggests that in Pt/Rum Ti0.9O2 and Pt/Ru0(.7)Ti(0.3)O(2) the Pt nanoparticles are in close contact with Ru atoms from the support, which enables the bifunctional mechanism. The activity and stability of the catalysts for methanol oxidation were examined under potentiodynamic and potentiostatic conditions. While the activity of Pt/Rum Ti0.9O2 is unsatisfactory, the performance of Pt/Ru0.7Ti0.3O2 is comparable to PtRu/C. For example, in the potentiostatic test at 0.5 V the activities after 25 min are 0.035 mA cm(-2) and 0.022 mA cm(-2) for Pt/Ru0.7Ti0.3O2 and PtRu/C, respectively. In potentiodynamic test the activities at 0.5V after 250 cycles are around 0.02 mA cm(-2) for both catalysts.

AB  - Silver dendrites were prepared by electrochemical deposition. The structures of the Ag dendrites, the type of twins and their distribution were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Z-contrast high angle annular dark field transmission electron microscopy (HAADF), and crystallographically sensitive orientation imaging microscopy (OIM). The results revealed that the silver dendrites were characterized by the presence of randomly distributed 180 degrees rotational twin domains. The broad surface of dendrites was of the {111} type. The directions of growth of the main dendrite stem and all branches were of the  LT 112> type.

AB  - Pd black was modified by a very low amount of Pt corresponding to a sub-monolayer (ML). Spontaneous displacement method was employed. The catalysts with 0.02-0.12 ML were characterized by cyclic voltammetry and COads stripping and were tested for HCOOH oxidation under the potentiodynamic and potentiostatic conditions. All the Pt"Pd catalysts were more active for HCOOH oxidation than Pd black. The Pt"Pd with 0.08 ML of Pt exhibited the highest activity with the maximum current density under the potentiodynamic conditions of 8 mA cm(-2) (vs. 2.7 mA cm(-2) on Pd black). Contrasting HCOOH oxidation kinetics on Pt"Pd and Pt"Au catalysts revealed that the current densities are higher, and the poisoning rate is lower on Pt"Pd catalyst. This was ascribed to an optimal strength of the Pt-adsorbate bond when Pt is supported on Pd and to a possible influence of the Pt atoms on the Pd substrate.

AB  - Electrochemical oxidation of HCOOH was studied on single metal Pt, Pt/C and Pd black catalysts, on bimetallic surfaces of Pt-Au and Pd-Au bulk electrodes as well as on Pt-Co/C, Pt-Au/C and Pt-Pd nanocatalysts. The electrocatalysts were characterized by cyclic voltammetry and COads stripping, while the HCOOH oxidation was examined under the potentiodynamic and potentiostatic conditions. The results indicate that the ensemble effect is crucial for high selectivity of Pt-based surfaces toward dehydrogenation path. The enhancement of HCOOH oxidation rate on Pd-based surfa-ces was reached through electronic modification exhibited by the second metal. Our results also point out that the self-poisoning of the electrocatalyst by COads produced by the incomplete CO2 reduction is related to the strength of the Pt- and Pd-adsorbate bond, which has to be considered in designing of an electrocatalyst for HCOOH oxidation.

AB  - Tungsten carbide was synthesized by calcination of carbon cryogel with embedded tungsten in a form of metatungstate. This material was used as a support for Pt nanoparticles. XRD pattern of W-C support indicated the presence of WC, W2C, and unreacted W, as well as graphitized carbon. According to previous TEM analysis of W-C support, it contains particles with core-shell structure, where the W particle was covered with the shell of a mixture of WC and W2C. The average Pt grain size calculated from XRD pattern was about 6 nm. A cyclic voltammogram of W-C support was recorded within the potential range relevant for its application as a catalyst support in fuel cells. The pair of anodic/cathodic peaks close to the negative potential limit could be ascribed to the intercalation of hydrogen within hydrous tungsten oxide, which is always present on the surface of WC in aqueous solutions. The cyclic voltammogram of Pt/W-C indicated that tungsten oxide species are present on tungsten carbide shell as well as on the surface of Pt nanoparticles. The Pt surface is only partially covered by hydrous tungsten oxide. Hydrogen intercalation in hydrous tungsten oxide is enhanced in the presence of Pt nanoparticles. Also, the presence of hydrated tungsten oxide leads to the decrease of OH chemisorbed on Pt surface. Stripping of underpotentially deposited copper was used for the assessment of Pt surface area and the specific surface area of Pt was estimated to be 41 m2 g-1. The electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction was examined on the synthesized Pt/W-C catalyst and compared with the results on the commercial Pt/C catalyst. It was found that the current densities at Pt/W-C were almost twice as high as those on Pt/C. The Tafel plots for both catalysts are characterized with two Tafel slopes: -0.060 V dec-1 at low current densities, and -0.120 V dec-1 at high current densities. From the rotational dependence of the reaction rate, it was found that oxygen reduction on both Pt/W-C and Pt/C follows the first order kinetics with respect to O2 and that four electrons are transferred per O2 molecule. The results show that the presence of tungsten carbide in support material, i.e. hydrous tungsten oxide on Pt surface, leads to promotion of oxygen reduction on the Pt/W-C catalyst. It was assumed that oxophilic hydrated tungsten oxide hinders OH adsorption on Pt surface, thus increasing Pt surface area available for O2 adsorption and its electrochemical reduction.
AB  - Sintetizovan je nosač katalizatora u kojem se na ugljeničnoj osnovi nalaze nanočestice metalnog volframa obavijene volfram-karbidom i na njega su nanete nanočestice Pt. Karakterizacija sintetizovanog uzorka cikličnom voltametrijom u kiseloj sredini ukazala je na oksidaciju volframovih vrsta iz nosača i formiranje hidratisanih oksidnih vrsta volframa na površini Pt. Elektrohemijska redukcija O2 u kiseloj sredini je ispitivana na sintetizovanom uzorku i rezultati su upoređeni sa komercijalnim katalizatorom u kojem su nanočestice Pt na nosaču od ugljenika razvijene površine. Pokazano je da redukcija O2, bez obzira na nosač katalizatora, sledi kinetiku prvog reda po O2 uz razmenu četiri elektrona, ali da su gustine struje veće u slučaju nosača sa volfram-karbidom. Povećana aktivnost sintetizovanog katalizatora je posledica prisustva oksofiličnih hidratisanih oksida volframa koji sprečavaju adsorpciju hidratisanog oksida na površini Pt i tako povećavaju površinu Pt dostupnu za adsorpciju i redukciju molekula kiseonika.

AB  - Ru-doped SnO2 powder, (RuxSn1-x)O2, with a Sn:Ru atomic ratio of 9:1 was synthesized and used as a support for Pt nanoparticles (30 mass % loading). The (RuxSn1-x)O2 support and the Pt/(RuxSn1-x)O2 catalyst were characterized by X-ray diffraction measurements, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The (RuxSn1-x)O2 was found to be a two-phase material consisting of probably a solid solution of RuO2 in SnO2 and pure RuO2. The average Pt particle size determined by TEM was 5.3 nm. Cyclic voltammetry of Pt/(RuxSn1-x)O2 indicated good conductivity of the support and displayed the usual features of Pt. The results of the electrochemical oxidation of COads and methanol on Pt/(RuxSn1-x)O2 were compared with those on commercial Pt/C and PtRu/C catalysts. Oxidation of COads on Pt/(RuxSn1-x)O2 starts at lower positive potentials than on PtRu/C and Pt/C. Potentiodynamic polarization curves and chronoamperometric curves of methanol oxidation indicated higher initial activity of the Pt/(RuxSn1-x)O2 catalyst compared to PtRu/C, but also a greater loss in current density over time. A potentiodynamic stability test of the catalysts revealed that deactivation of Pt/(RuxSn1-x)O2 and Pt/C was primarily caused by poisoning of the Pt surface by residues of methanol oxidation, which mostly occurred during the first potential cycle. In the case of PtRu/C, the poisoning of the surface was minor and deactivation was caused by surface area loss of the PtRu.

Test potenciodinamičke stabilnosti katalizatora je ukazao da je smanjenje aktivnosti Pt/(RuxSn1-x)O2 i Pt/C prvenstveno prouzrokovano trovanjem površine Pt proizvodima nepotpune oksidacije metanola, koje se uglavnom odigrava tokom prvog ciklusa.

AB  - The oxidation of HCOOH has been investigated on thin Pd layers ranging from 1 to 17 ML equivalents electrodeposited on polycrystalline Au substrate (Pd"Au). The results are compared to those on Pd black. Potentiodynamic polarization curves suggest that on both types of catalyst HCOOH oxidizes through dehydrogenation path. The high current densities achieved on 4-17 ML Pd"Au surpass more than three times the activity of Pd black. Chronoamperometric test reveals that the Pd"Au electrodes lose their activity faster than Pd black. In the stripping experiment performed after the chronoamperometry COads is detected on all the surfaces. On the 4 ML Pd"Au, which exhibits the highest deactivation rate, the COads coverage is the largest. After the chronoamperometric test repeated in the CO2 saturated supporting electrolyte, the anodic stripping shows that COads is present on all the electrodes, again with the highest coverage on 4 ML Pd"Au. It is concluded that deactivation of Pd surfaces is caused by the COads formed in the electrochemical reduction of CO2, which is the product of HCOOH oxidation. Electronic modification of Pd by Au substrate causes stronger interactions of Pd with HCOOH and CO, which increases HCOOH oxidation rate, but also accelerates the poisoning by COads.

AB  - The catalytic activity of WC/Pt electrocatalysts towards hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) in acid solution was studied. Tungsten carbide (WC) prepared by polycondensation of resorcinol and formaldehyde in the presence of ammonium metatungstate salt and CTABr surfactant was used as the support of a Pt electrocatalyst (WC/Pt). The obtained WC/Pt electrodes were characterized by XRD, HRTEM, EDS, EELS and electrochemical measurements. HRTEM analysis showed that the WC particles possess a core-shell structure with a metallic tungsten core and a shell composed of a mixture of tungsten carbides shell (WC and W2C). The WC/Pt catalyst is composed of well-dispersed sub-nanometer Pt clusters which consist of a few to several tens of Pt atoms. EELS measurements indicate that the WC particles function as nucleation sites for Pt nanoparticles. Based on the Tafel-Heyrovsky-Volmer mechanism the corresponding kinetic equations were derived to describe the HOR current-potential behavior over the entire potential region on RDE. The fitting showed that in the lower potential region HOR on Pt proceeds most likely via the Tafel-Volmer (TV) pathway. The kinetic results also showed that the WC/Pt(1%) when compared to the standard C/Pt(1%) electrode led to a remarkable enhancement of the hydrogen oxidation in an acidic medium, which was explained by H-spill-over between platinum and tungsten carbide.

AB  - Tungsten carbide was synthesized by calcination of carbon cryogel containing tungsten in a form of metatungstate. Characterization by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy indicated core-shell structure of the particles with tungsten core and tungsten carbide shell, attached to graphitized carbon. Pt nanoparticles were deposited on this material and most of them were nucleated on tungsten carbide. Cyclic voltammetry of W-C support and Pt/W-C catalyst indicated hydrogen intercalation in surface hydrous tungsten oxide. Oxidation of COads on Pt/W-C commences earlier than on Pt/C for about 100 mV. The onset potentials of MOR on Pt/W-C and Pt/C are the same, but at more positive potentials Pt/W-C catalyst is more active. It was proposed that promotion of MOR is based on bifunctional mechanism that facilitates COads removal. Stability test was performed by potential cycling of Pt/W-C and Pt/C in the supporting electrolyte and in the presence of methanol. Pt surface area loss observed in the supporting electrolyte of both catalysts after 250 cycles was about 20%. Decrease in the activity for methanol oxidation was 30% for Pt/W-C, but even 48% for Pt/C. The difference was explained by the presence of hydrous tungsten oxide on Pt in Pt/W-C catalyst, which reduces accumulation of poisoning COads. Copyright

AB  - A detrimental effect of CO on the stability of Pt nanoparticles, which is important for fuel cells technology, is demonstrated by the change in HCOOH kinetics on Pt nanoparticles caused by the presence of CO in the electrolyte. Pt nanoparticles supported on high area carbon (Pt/C) were applied on gold and glassy carbon substrates (Pt/C"Au and Pt/C"GC) and three different kinds of Pt surface were prepared by potential cycling in the various potential limits in N-2 and CO saturated electrolyte: untreated, OH-annealed and CO-annealed. On untreated Pt/C"Au catalyst HCOOH is oxidized predominantly through indirect mechanism, after OH-annealing direct path is slightly accelerated, but on CO-annealed catalyst the direct path in HCOOH oxidation is predominant. Based on the fact that more contiguous Pt sites are necessary for indirect than for direct path, it was concluded that OH- and especially CO-annealing of Pt/C produces small Pt domains. Since the same pretreatment did not show any effect on HCOOH oxidation on Pt/C"GC electrode, it was postulated that Pt nanoparticles dissolve in the presence of CO on the surface and in the electrolyte, and successively deposit on Au substrate. The results points out pronounced instability of Pt nanoparticles in the presence of CO.

AB  - Pt-Au nanoparticles supported on high area carbon were prepared by simultaneous reduction of Au and Pt precursors and by reduction of Pt precursor on already prepared Au nanoparticles. The first method produced a solid solution of Pt in Au containing similar to 5% Pt with the remaining Pt on the nanoparticles' surface. For the Pt:Au precursor ratio of 1:4 and 1:9, the surface ratio was found to be 0.70:0.30 and 0.55:0.45, respectively. By the second method with the Pt:Au precursors ratio of 1:12, the surface ratio was 0.30:0.70. The voltammetric peaks of Pt-oxide reduction and CO(ads) oxidation demonstrated electronic modification of Pt by Au in all catalysts. With decreasing Pt:Au surface ratio the activity for HCOOH oxidation increases and surface coverage by CO(ads) decreases. The highest activity under potentiodynamic and quasi steady-state conditions without poisoning by CO(ads) was observed for the catalyst with the lowest Pt:Au surface ratio. Chronoamperometic test showed that its high catalytic activity is associated with a high deactivation rate. It was postulated that too strong adsorption of a reactive or non-reactive intermediate caused by electron modification of Pt by underlying Au, is responsible for the deactivation. This result stresses that high Pt dispersion, necessary for promotion of the dehydrogenation path in HCOOH oxidation, can produce too strong adsorption of intermediates causing deactivation of the catalyst.

It was postulated that too strong adsorption of a reactive or non-reactive intermediate caused by electron modification of Pt by underlying Au, is responsible for the deactivation. This result stresses that high Pt dispersion, necessary for promotion of the dehydrogenation path in HCOOH oxidation, can produce too strong adsorption of intermediates causing deactivation of the catalyst.",

AB  - Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were used as a support for Pt nanoparticles prepared by the microwave-assisted polyol method. The MWCNTs were pretreated by chemical oxidation (o-MWCNTs) followed by modification by ethylenediamine (eda-MWCNTs). Characterization of both oxidized and eda-modified materials by UV-spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy revealed that the modification by eda leads to (i) agglomeration of the MWCNTs, (ii) a decrease in the capacitance of the material and (iii) reduced rate of electron transfer between the MWCNTs and solution species. However, the Pt loading of Pt/o-MWCNTs was only 2 mass% while the loading of Pt/eda-MWCNTs was 20 mass%. Much higher efficiency of Pt deposition on eda-MWCNTs than on o-MWCNTs was ascribed to the shift in pH(pzc) value of the MWCNT surface from 2.43 to 5.91 upon modification by eda. Transmission electron microscopy revealed that the mean diameter of the Pt particles in Pt/eda-MWCNTs is 2.5 +/- 0.5 nm and that their distribution on the support is homogenous with no evidence of pronounced particle agglomeration. Cyclic voltammetry of a Pt/eda-MWCNT thin film indicated a clean Pt surface with well-resolved peaks characteristic of polycrystalline Pt. Its electrocatalytic activity for oxygen reduction was examined and the results corresponded to the commercial Pt nanocatalyst. This study shows that modification of o-MWCNTs by eda helps to achieve homogenous distribution of small Pt nanoparticles and does not impede its electrocatalytic activity.
