摘要：
In methanol solvent, using SnCl2 as reducing agent, carbon supported Pt(PVC) catalysts with different size of Pt particles were prepared. X-ray diffraction(XRD) and transmission electron microscopy(TEM) measurements demonstrated that in the obtained Pt/C catalysts, the Pt particles have great uniformity and good dispersion. The electrochemical experiments indicated that the effect of average particle size of Pt/C catalysts for formic acid oxidation is obvious. The Pt/C catalyst with 3. 2 nm average size of the Pt particles exhibited the optimal electrocatalytic performance for formic acid oxidation. This effect of particle size may be related to the quantity of the oxygen-containing species on the surface of the catalyst, the apparent surface area and the relative crystallinity of the platinum particles.
