Abstract

ABSTRACT Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs) are highly efficient and non-polluting electrical power generators based on two electrochemical reactions. Therefore, PEMFCs are considered to be alternative electricity sources for electric vehicles, portable applications and stationary power systems due to their high power density and eco friendly environment. However, PEMFCs are associated with many problems for their commercialization such as the high price of electrode catalyst and the slow rate of Oxygen Reduction Reaction (ORR). In this study, PtFe/C cathode catalysts were prepared using the chemical reaction method to develop cathode catalyst with higher catalytic activity for the ORR. The catalytic activity for the ORR of PtFe/C catalysts was evaluated using electrochemical measurement.
