以二(2-羟基丙酸)二氢氧化二铵合钛(TBA)和氧化石墨烯(GO)为前驱体,通过水热法合成出不同TiO2含量的TiO2/Graphene(TiO2/G)复合材料,随之用微波醇热法还原Pt前驱体可得Pt-TiO2/G催化剂. 实验结果表明,TiO2可与Pt相互作用,添入适量TiO2的Pt-TiO2/G催化剂具有较高的氧还原电催化活性及甲醇氧化的电催化活性与稳定性. 但TiO2电导率偏低,过量TiO2的添入反而使其电催化性能降低.

A series of graphene-supported TiO2 nanoparticles (TiO2/G) with different TiO2 contents were prepared by a facile hydrothermal method, and then the Pt-TiO2/G catalysts were successfully prepared by reducing Pt-precursor with microwave technique. Compared with Pt-G catalysts, the catalytic performance toward oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) of Pt-TiO2/G catalysts was improved due to the addition of TiO2. However, the excessive TiO2 would lead to a poor catalytic performance of Pt-TiO2/G catalysts because of the low electrical conductivity of TiO2.
