摘要：
The electrochemical behaviour of Direct Methanol Fuel Cells (DMFCs) was investigated at low temperatures (30 degrees C-60 degrees C). An 85 wt% Pt-Ru (1:1 a/o)/C anode catalyst and a 60 wt% Pt/C cathode catalyst were in-house prepared and characterised. The influence of noble metal loading on the performance of a DMFC based on these catalysts was studied by steady-state polarisation measurements. The DMFC maximum power density increased linearly from 30 to 75 mW.cm(-2) at 60 degrees C passing from 1 to 5 mg.cm(-2) Pt loading in both electrodes. By further increasing the Pt loading at 10 mg.cm(-2) only a slight increase of power density was recorded (81 mW.cm(-2)).
