Abstract
In the reported investigation the extractive-pyrolytic method of fine-disperse platinum coating on powder carriers was applied. Nanopowders of Al2O3, γ- AlO(OH), Y2O3, CeO2, SiO2 were used as carriers. Investigations on the effect of synthesis parameters on the mean size of platinum crystallites in the produced composites (metal content 4.8 wt%) have revealed that the increase of the pyrolysis temperature, annealing period, metal concentration in the precursor [(C8H17)3NH]2PtCI6 in toluene as well as the decrease of the specific surface area result in growth of the mean size of platinum crystallites. Microscopic studies show the formation of platinum spherical particles sized 5 to 35 nm as a results of the pyrolysis of the platinum-containing precursor in a water-soluble carrier (fine-disperse NaCl).
