Abstract

Spin adducts of methanol and ethanol electrocatalytic oxidation were detected by the spin trap method using a tiny ?2/O2 fuel cell (FC) designed for ESR in situ with a Nafion/Pt membrane electrode assembly. Spin adducts of intermediates of the direct electrooxidation of ethanol, which have not been observed earlier, were obtained by the variation of oxidation conditions, in particular, the FC potential. The work of the FC was controlled by monitoring the diagnostic curves potential3-current density, power density3-current density, and efficiency—power density.
