Graphene supported platinum nanoparticles as catalyst for oxygen reduction reaction

  • Published:
Chemical Research in Chinese Universities Aims and scope

Abstract

Graphene supported Pt nanoparticles were fabricated via electrochemical reduction method and the application of them in oxygen reduction reaction was also investigated. The results of field emission scanning electron microscope(SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) and Raman spectroscopy reveal that the interaction between Pt nanoparticles and graphene sheets can prevent graphene from agglomeration and improve the electronic conductivity of the composite. And the graphene supported Pt nanoparticles exhibit excellent electrocatalytic activity toward oxygen reduction reaction.
