Abstract
Methanol is a promising fuel for direct methanol fuel cells in portable devices. A deeper understanding of its electro-oxidation is needed for evaluating electrocatalytic performance and catalyst design. Here we provide an in-depth investigation of the cyclic voltammetry (CV) of methanol electro-oxidation. The oxidation peak in backward scan is shown to be unrelated to residual intermediate oxidation. The origin of the second oxidation peak (If2) is expected to the methanol oxidation on Pt-Ox. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy coupled with CV reveals the origin of CV hysteresis to be a shift in the rate-determining step, from methanol dehydration to OH adsorption by water dissociation, induced by a change in Pt surface coverage with oxygenated species. The peak ratio between forward oxidation peak current (If) and backward oxidation peak current (Ib), which is If/Ib, is not related to the degree of CO tolerance but to the degree of oxophilicity indeed. © 2016 American Chemical Society
