Development of a PtSn bimetallic catalyst for direct fuel cells using bio-butanol fuel
Development of a PtSn bimetallic catalyst for direct fuel cells using bio-butanol fuel
Pt and PtSn catalysts were studied for n-butanol electro-oxidation at various temperatures. PtSn showed a higher activity towards butanol electro-oxidation compared to Pt in acidic media. The onset potential for n-butanol oxidation on PtSn is similar to 520 mV lower than that found on Pt, and significantly lower activation energy was found for PtSn compared with that for Pt.

Abstract
Pt and PtSn catalysts were studied for n-butanol electro-oxidation at various temperatures. PtSn showed a higher activity towards butanol electro-oxidation compared to Pt in acidic media. The onset potential for n-butanol oxidation on PtSn is similar to 520 mV lower than that found on Pt, and significantly lower activation energy was found for PtSn compared with that for Pt.
