Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Enhanced activity for oxygen reduction reaction of Pt catalyst loaded on the partially reduced TiO2-SnO2 mixed oxides was found to be originated not only from the interaction between Pt catalyst and lower oxidation state of Ti, i.e., Ti3+, but also from the electron supply effect through carbon supports. The obtained Pt catalyst loaded on partially reduced TiO2-SnO2 mixed oxides showed fairly high specific activity: oxygen reduction activity per specific surface area. The trivalent titanium-derived amorphous precursor of TiO2-SnO2 showed peculiar crystal growth, i.e., the precursor pre-calcined at 250 oC showed obvious crystal growth under following hydrothermal treatment at lower temperature of 150 oC. This finding was applied for preparing Pt/TiO2-SnO2 catalyst and the obtained catalyst showed higher specific activity for oxygen reduction reaction.
