Abstract

Abstract:

To overcome the prohibitive cost and poor durability of conventional Pt-based catalysts, TiO₂/C was prepared by pyrolyzing a novel titanium dioxide/polyaniline (TiO₂/PANI) composite. The prepared catalysts were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, cyclic voltammetry (CV), and linear sweep voltammetry. Interaction between PANI and TiO₂ was found to inhibit the aggregation of TiO₂ and its transformation from anatase to rutile. The catalytic activity of the TiO₂/C first increased with increasing PANI content and then decreased; the optimum was achieved when the PANI/TiO₂ mass ratio was 35/100. CV and i-t curves showed that the prepared composite has a good catalytic stability.
