Abstract

Preparation, characterization, and electrocatalytic study of the electrodeposited Pt and Pd (e.g., Pt and PtPd) catalysts on titanium dioxide (TiO₂) modified reduced graphene oxide (rGO) support for formic acid oxidation were performed. The catalyst composites are labeled as xPt/rGO-TiO₂, xPtyPd/rGO-TiO₂, and yPd/rGO-TiO₂ where x and y are cycle numbers of metal electrodeposition (x and y = 2–6). The characterizations of the catalysts were performed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Small and dispersed metal nanoparticles are obtained on rGO-TiO₂. The catalytic performances for formic acid oxidation were measured by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry (CA). The electrocatalytic results reveal that the bimetallic 4Pt2Pd/rGO-TiO₂ catalyst facilitates formic acid oxidations at the lowest potentials and generates the highest oxidation currents and also improves the highest CO oxidation compared to the monometallic 6Pt/rGO-TiO₂ catalyst. According to the experimental data, the Pd and TiO₂ enhance the electrocatalytic activity of the catalysts towards the formic acid oxidation; the improved catalytic performance of the prepared catalysts strongly relates to the high electrochemically active surface area (ECSA) investigated.
