Praparation of Nanometric Platinum Coatings on Carbon Substrate (Pt/C) for Catalytic Plates of Fuel Cells, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Ghorbani , Mohammad (Supervisor) ; Afshar, Abdollah (Supervisor)
Abstract
With increasing pollution and decrease in global reservoirs of fossil fuels, a lot of interest has been attracted to fuel cells as efficient and clean energy sources. Polymeric (membrane) fuel cells are special type of fuel cells, which can be built in small dimensions and power. These cells use hydrogen (and oxygen or air) and produce water. In these cells, platinum is used as electrode (and electrocatalyst) both in anode and cathode, due to its low overvoltage for both hydrogen and oxygen. To increase the efficiency of these coatings, it is best to produce platinum particles with maximum area and it automatically leads to nanometric particles. In this thesis, platinum particles are...
