This work presented in this thesis focuses on designing electrocatalysts for methanol oxidation and understanding the catalytic processes. The goal is to achieve more durable and efficient electrocatalysts for direct methanol fuel cells. Direct methanol oxidation catalysts Pt₁₋ₓ-Mₓ (M = Ta, Nb, Ti, Zr, 0 < x < 1) was prepared using co-sputter deposition. Characterization of these thin film catalysts was performed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Assessment of the methanol oxidation activity of Pt₁₋ₓ-Mₓ catalysts were achieved through half-cell experiments. Among all the Pt₁₋ₓ-Mₓ catalysts, Pt₀.₇₇-Ta₀.₂₃ catalyst showed best electrochemical area specific activity which is comparable to platinum ruthenium alloy on carbon (PtRu/C) catalysts. Pt₁₋ₓ-Taₓ, Pt₁₋ₓ-Nbₓ and Pt₁₋ₓ-Zrₓ catalysts work as bifunctional methanol oxidation catalysts. The surface oxides species activates water molecules and hence facilitate the process of removing carbon monoxide from platinum sites. The membrane electrode assembly (MEA) of Pt₀.₇₇-Ta₀.₂₃ catalyst was tested at 60℃, 80℃ and 90℃. The power density achieved at 90℃ was 82 mW/cm²/mg Pt, which is 1.82 times of PtRu/C catalyst with similar platinum loading. This is the first a methanol oxidation catalyst containing tantalum being tested in an MEA.
