Abstract

The highly dispersed carbon supported Pd–TiO2 catalyst was prepared by a liquid phase reduction method with intermittent microwave irradiation. The kinetic parameters, such as the charge transfer parameter (α) and the apparent diffusion coefficient (D) of formic acid electrooxidation on a carbon supported Palladium Titanium dioxide (Pd–TiO2/C) electrode were obtained under the quasi steady-state conditions. The dependence on temperature of the formic oxidation at a Pd–TiO2/C electrode was also investigated and the activation energy (E a) at different potentials was obtained.
