Title: Toward sustainable hydrogen economy: electrode materials – non-platinum electrocatalytic systems
Author: Perica Paunović
Abstract: The role and importance of hydrogen economy is given within the energetic and environmental problems facing mankind. Electrocatalytic activity of metals is quoted as well as physical and chemical pathways to improve performances of electrode materials. Some characteristics of advanced nano-structured hypo-hyper d-electrocatalysts deposited on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are shown. Non-platinum electrocatalysts approach the activity of conventional Pt/Vulcan XC-72 catalyst, while catalyst containing only 20% Pt in metallic phase exceeds it so far.
