中文摘要

铂类纳米复合材料被认为是甲醇氧化反应（MOR）中最有前途的催化剂之一，但由于其电子转移性能低、易毒化以及电化学活性较差，导致其在实际应用中仍然面临巨大的挑战。本文报道了一种具有良好电化学性能的铂钌碳纳米管复合材料(Pt–Ru@MWCNT)并应用于甲醇氧化反应。该材料的制备是从功能性多壁碳纳米管(F-MWCNTs)出发，在不添加还原剂的情况下，通过简单、环保的方法合成了Pt–Ru@MWCNT纳米复合材料，铂钌双金属纳米粒子与功能性碳纳米管上的氧原子形成M–O–C共价键的方式均匀的负载到碳纳米管上形成双金属Pt–Ru@MWCNT纳米复合材料。采用傅里叶变换红外、电子能谱、透射电镜和电化学测量等实验研究了纳米复合材料的表面官能团、微观结构和形态以及电化学性能。研究结果表明，在功能性碳纳米管表面铂钌双金属纳米粒子与氧原子形成M–O–C共价键的方式均匀的负载到碳纳米管上；Pt–Ru@MWCNT纳米复合材料对MOR的电化学活性表面积(ECSA)为110.4 m²·g⁻¹，比20wt%的商用Pt@C和其他方法制备的Pt类纳米复合材料的ECSA分别高出2.67和4.0倍，这是主要由于M–O–C共价键的产生改善了材料的电子转移性能。此外，将Ru原子引入Pt@MWCNT纳米复合材料中，增强了材料的抗CO中毒能力。

Abstract

Abstract

Platinum-based nanocomposites have been considered as one of the most promising catalysts for methanol oxidation reactions (MORs), which yet still suffer from low electrochemical activity and electron-transfer properties. Apart from van-der-Waals heterostructures, herein, we report a novel nanocomposite with the structure of Pt–Ru bimetallic nanoparticles covalently-bonded onto multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) (Pt–Ru@MWCNT), which have been successfully fabricated via a facile and green synthesis method. It is demonstrated that the Pt–Ru@MWCNT nanocomposite possesses much enhanced electrocatalytic activity with the electrochemical active surface area (ECSA) of 110.4 m²·g⁻¹ for Pt towards MOR, which is 2.67 and 4.0 times higher than those of 20wt% commercial Pt@C and Pt-based nanocomposite prepared by other method, due to the improved electron-transfer properties originated from M–O–C covalent bonds. This work provides us a new strategy for the structural design of highly-efficient electrocatalysts in boosting MOR performance.
