Özet
© 2022 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLCFuel cells are a very good candidate to provide energy conversion with green technology. Glucose is used as a fuel in fuel cells since it is easily available and has a high energy density. Herein, hydroxyapatite (HAp) was synthesized by precipitation method, and the sodium borohydride (NaBH4) reduction method was used to fabricate HAp supported PdIn (PdIn/HAp) alloy anode catalysts at varying atomic molar ratios for glucose electrooxidation. Structural, crystallographic, and morphological properties of the PdIn/HAps were determined with X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscope (SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and chronoamperometry (CA) were employed for the electrocatalytic activity and stability of PdIn/Haps toward glucose electrooxidation. The results show that HAp has a boosting effect for PdIn alloy towards glucose electrooxidation. Pd80In20/HAp showed 2.6 times higher electrocatalytic activity than Pd/HAp, and it is the most active and stable catalyst in this study with a specific activity of 5.64 mA/cm2.
