Composite Catalysts Supported On Modified Carbon Substrates And Methods Of Making The Same

View page
US Patent:
7618915, Nov 17, 2009
Filed:
May 8, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/800978
Inventors:
Branko N. Popov - Columbia SC, US
Nalini Subramanian - Kennesaw GA, US
International Classification:
B01J 31/00
B01J 21/18
US Classification:
502180, 502150, 502153, 502173, 502182, 502184, 502185
Abstract:
A method of producing a composite carbon catalyst is generally disclosed. The method includes oxidizing a carbon precursor (e. g. , carbon black). Optionally, nitrogen functional groups can be added to the oxidized carbon precursor. Then, the oxidized carbon precursor is refluxed with a non-platinum transitional metal precursor in a solution. Finally, the solution is pyrolyzed at a temperature of at least about 500 C.

US Patent:
8398951, Mar 19, 2013
Filed:
Mar 5, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/411976
Inventors:
Branko N. Popov - Columbia SC, US
Jong-Won Lee - Columbia SC, US
Assignee:
University of South Carolina - Columbia SC
International Classification:
H01M 4/02
US Classification:
423523, 423209
Abstract:

Development Of A Novel Method For Preparation Of Pemfc Electrodes

View page
US Patent:
8465858, Jun 18, 2013
Filed:
Jul 28, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/191605
Inventors:
Branko N. Popov - Columbia SC, US
Hansung Kim - Seoul, KR
Assignee:
University of South Carolina - Columbia SC
International Classification:
H01M 8/02
H01M 4/86
H01M 4/88
H01M 4/96
US Classification:
429 40, 429523, 429530, 429535
Abstract:
A method based on pulse electrodeposition technique was developed for preparation of membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs). In this approach, platinum is deposited directly on the surface of the carbon electrode. The method ensures most of the platinum to be in close contact with the membrane. Using this method it is possible to increase the Pt/C ratio up to 75 wt % near the surface of the electrode resulting in a 5 μm thick catalyst layer. The MEA prepared by pulse electrodeposition exhibits a current density of 0. 33 A/cmat 0. 8 V with platinum loading of 0. 25 mg of Pt/cm. The results indicate that pulse deposition may be an attractive technique to replace the conventional powder-type MEA preparation methods and help achieve industry goals of reducing catalyst cost and increasing efficiency in polymer electrode membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs).
