Novel synthesis of highly active Pt/C cathode electrocatalyst for direct methanol fuel cell.
A 40 wt% Pt/C cathode electrocatalyst with controlled Pt particle size of approximately 2.9 nm showing better performance than commercial catalyst for direct methanol fuel cell was prepared by a polyol process with water but without using stabilizing agent.
