Green and cost-effective synthesis of NiSn alloys by using intermittent microwave heating process as electrocatalysts for ethanol oxidation in alkaline solution
Source abstract
Abstract
This work is focused on the design and development of carbon-supported NiSn alloys by using the intermittent microwave heating polyol process. The electrocatalysts were synthesized under different sequences of irradiation time and Ni:Sn ratios. X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements showed that NiSn/C electrocatalysts have a displacement to lower 2θ angles with respect to Ni/C electrocatalysts, as consecuence of some degree of alloy formation. The cyclic voltammograms show that NiSn/C are active for ethanol oxidation and the rate of reaction decreases as the concentration of ethanol increases to 2 mol L−1. Some NiSn nanomaterials present better stability compared with Ni/C and this feature can be due to the beneficial effect of Sn. Therefore, it is demonstrated that intermittent microwave irradiation is a potential method to synthetize in a short time and in large-scale NiSn alloy that can be used in direct alcohol fuel cells.
