Facile synthesis of nanostructured reduced titanium oxides using borohydride toward the creation of oxide-based fuel cell electrodes

Abstract

A facile, low-temperature reduction method using sodium borohydride to yield corundum-type Ti2O3 nanorods from rutile-type TiO2 nanorods with morphology retention is proposed. The electrochemical analyses confirmed their promising performance as electrodes and excellent stability to the environment of interest for fuel cell operation.
