Catalyst preparation by combustion synthesis for electrochemical hydrocarbon devices

abstract

Metals and ceramics can behave as active electrocatalyst materials, particularly in hydrocarbon oxidation in anodic reaction fuel cells. Combustion synthesis is a very reliable, fruitful and rapid synthesis method to produce metals, ceramics and cermets with low particle size and high specific surface area. This work describes the preparation of nanoparticle Pt/Ru alloys, ceramic perovskites such as Sm0.95CoO3-delta, and Sm0.95CoO3-delta/Pt cermets, and shows how promising these materials can be in the role of electrochemically active materials.
