Resumen
In this work, Pt/GMC and Pt/rGO electrocatalysts
have been prepared by impregnation reduction method in which
Pt precursor is chemically reduced by citric acid, ethanol and Ar-
H2 dynamic atmosphere. Graphitic mesoporous carbon (GMC)
sample was synthesized via nanocasting process with anhydrous
pyrolysis at 1273 K using SBA-15 as hard template and purified
sugar as carbon source. SBA-15 was prepared via sol gel using
pluronic P-123 as surfactant and TEOS as silica precursor.
Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was synthesized by modified
Hummers method using graphite as carbon precursor. The
prepared materials were characterized by means of diffraction
(XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive
X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and high resolution transmission
electron microscopy (HRTEM). The performance of
electrocatalysts for methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) was
measured by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The electrochemical
characterization techniques revealed that the mass activity of
Pt/GMC, Pt/rGO and the commercial electrocatalyst Pt/C were
627, 332 and 371 mA/mgPt respectively as well as the carbon
monoxide tolerance index ICO for these catalysts were 1.07, 1.04
and 0.76 respectively. Therefore, Pt/GMC shows better
electrocatalytic performance and best resistance to carbonaceous
intermediates species for the electrooxidation of methanol.
