Research Abstract |
In order to improve the electrode potential for the oxygen reduction reaction of air electrode, the effect of the composition of La-Mn based perovskite-type oxides on the oxygen reduction activity and the effect of the doubly loading of LaMnO3 and Pt on the carbon-support were investigated. As the result of substituting Ca and Fe for LaMnO3 nanoparticles, the optimum oxygen reduction activity was obtained at Ca=0.4 and Fe=0.1 because the valence state of B-sipe in the perovskite-type oxide was well optimized. The doubly loading of LaMnO3 and Pt on the carbon-support revealed that Pt is effective to improve the on-set potential for the oxygen reduction reaction, and that LaMnO3 is effective to reduce the overpotential for oxygen reduction reaction.
