研究了PEG-丙酮体系中光化学合成Pd纳米粒子并在同一体系内在获得的Pd纳米粒子表面光化学还原Pt(IV)离子获得Pd核@Pt壳纳米粒子。通过改变Pd晶种对Pt(IV)的比例,能够有效调节复合粒子的Pt壳厚度。经HR-TEM和XPS分析,结果表明,获得的纳米粒子的平均粒径为5.3~7.1 nm,具有核-壳复合结构。电化学分析表明Pd:Pt摩尔比1:1、4:1的Pt核@Pt壳纳米粒子具有与Pt相似的催化活性和稳定性,且成本更低,可能被用作直接甲醇燃料电池阳极催化材料。
In the PEG-acetone solution system, the Pd@Pt core-shell nanoparticles were prepared by photochemical reduction of Pt(IV) on the surface of Pd nanoparticles which were firstly in-situ synthesized as the seed by a photochemical method. The thickness of Pt shell of the composite particles could be efficiently adjusted by changing the molar ratio of Pd seed to Pt(IV). Core-shell composite structure of the obtained nanoparticles with average diameter in the range of 5.3-7.1 nm was confirmed by HR-TEM and XPS. The electrochemical tests indicate that Pd@Pt core-shell nanoparticles, in which Pd: Pt is 1:1 or 1:4, have the similar catalytic activity and the stability to those of Pt, while lower cost. Therefore, they can be used for anode catalyst materials of direct methanol fuel cell.
