Abstract
The nitrogen-doped carbon (N-doped C), that has a graphene-like structure, has been chosen as a support for the deposition of MnCo nanoparticles using a rapid microwave heating method with the aim to use them as the anode material for direct hydrazine fuel cells (DHFCs). For comparison, the pure Co/N-doped C and Mn/N-doped C catalysts have been synthesized under similar conditions. The structure, morphology and composition of the synthesized catalysts have been characterized using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Raman, X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES). The electrocatalytic activity of the prepared MnCo/N-doped C, Co/N-doped C and Mn/N-doped C catalysts for hydrazine oxidation has been evaluated using cyclic voltammetry.
