Strategies to synthesize carbon-supported elctrocatalysts with reduced Pt content and increased activity for use in low temperature fuel cells 

Garcia Cardona, Júlia (Date of defense: 2023-12-04)

[eng] Conventional catalysts for polymer electrolyte fuel cells are based on Pt supported on porous carbons, generally carbon blacks. However, Pt is expensive and scarce and is poisoned by CO, which is present in the ...
