Electrochemical studies on graphene oxide-supported metallic and bimetallic nanoparticles for fuel cell applications

Ali Osman SOLAK

A fuel cell is an electrochemical cell that converts a source fuel into an electrical current. It generates electricity inside a cell through reactions between a fuel and an oxidant, triggered in the presence of an electrolyte. Fuel cells have been attracting more and more attention in recent decades due to high-energy demands, fossil fuel depletions, and environmental pollution throughout world. In this study, different sized metallic and bimetallic nanoparticles (AuNPs, Fe@AuNPs, Ag@AuNPs) were synthesized on graphene oxide sheets and their electrocatalytic activities for methanol oxidation ...Daha fazlası
