초록
본 연구에서는 고분자 전해질 연료전지의 탄소 지지체로 중형기공 실리카(SBA-15)를 이용한 전통적인 주형합성법을 이용하여 중형기공 탄소(CMK-3)를 합성하였다. 합성된 CMK-3는 추가적으로 비표면적과 물리적 성질을 증가시키기 위하여 활성화제로 수산화 칼륨(KOH)양을 0, 1, 3, 및 4 g으로 달리하여 활성화하였다. 그리고 활성화된 CMK-3(K-CMK-3)에 화학적 환원 방법을 이용하여 백금과 루테늄을 담지하였다. CMK-3에 담지된 백금-루테늄 촉매의 특성을 확인하기 위해 비표면적 장치(BET), X-선 회절분석법(XRD), 주사전자현미경(SEM), 투과전자현미경(TEM), 유도결합 플라즈마 질량분석기(ICP-MS)를 이용하였다. 또한, 백금-루테늄 촉매의 전기화학적인 특성을 순환전류전압 실험으로 분석하였다. 결론적으로, 3 g의 KOH로 활성화된 CMK-3(K3g-CMK-3)가 가장 넓은 비표면적을 나타냈다. 또한, K3g-CMK-3의 높은 비표면적은 백금-루테늄의 균일한 분산과 함께 전기적인 촉매의 성능을 향상시키는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
In this work, mesoporous carbons (CMK-3) were prepared by a conventional templating method using mesoporous silica (SBA-15) for using catalyst supports in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). The CMK-3 were chemically activated to obtain high surface area and small pore diameter with different potassium hydroxide (KOH) amounts, i.e., 0, 1, 3, and 4 g as an activating agent. And then Pt-Ru was deposited onto activated CMK-3 (K-CMK-3) by a chemical reduction method. The characteristics of Pt-Ru catalysts deposited onto K-CMK-3 were determined by surface area and pore size analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and inductive coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The electrochemical properties of Pt-Ru/K-CMK-3 catalysts were also analyzed by cyclic voltammetry (CV). From the results, the K3g-CMK-3 carbon supports activated with 3 g KOH showed the highest specific surface areas. In addition, the K3g-CMK-3 led to uniform dispersion of Pt-Ru onto K-CMK-3, resulted in the enhancement of elelctro-catalystic activity of Pt-Ru catalysts.
