Choosing Compositions Of Electrocatalysts
1989
Simple theory predicts compositions of alloys that exhibit maximum catalytic activities in presence of certain reactants. Method used to select best catalysts for electrochemical batteries and fuel cells. Oxygen-electrode overvoltage plotted against solubility parameter of lead/platinum electrode in acidic and basic solutions. Electrode formed by plating mixtures of lead and platinum, corresponding to various solubility parameters. Method based on one used to analyze activities of nonelectrical catalysts in reactions involving hydrogen or oxygen. Rate of such reaction increases when solubility parameter of catalyst matches reactant.
