Among intermetallic phases, thc N i Ah typc represents a transition between mainly metallic and essentially nonmetallic phases. The B atoms occupy a close-packed hexagonal unit cell with a c/a ratio of 1.633. Chains of A atoms fit into the octahedral voids. With increasing metallic character of the

High-activity platinized-carbon anodes for methanol oxidation have been prepared. XPS investigation of the electrodes showed the presence of both Pt" and oxidized Pt species. The enhanced activity of these electrodes, compared with Pt black, can be explained in terms of the unusual surface propertie
many advantages, such as excellent performance and enhanced safety. The performance improvement is achieved because of strong mechanical integrity (cycle life) and absence of binder (shelf life) in C-C composite. The enhancement in safety comes from high thermal conductivity, fire retardant characte
Over the past few years there has been a resurgence of interest in methanol oxidation in acid electrolytes, where platinum group metals are the only practical catalysts. The recent literature concerning the adsorption and oxidation processes occurring at platinum in acid solutions is reviewed. The o
The electrooxidation of methanol on porous carbon electrodes impregnated with bimetallic platinum group catalysts, Pt/M (M = Au, OS, Ir, Pd and Ru), in a H,SO, electrolyte is reported. Both Au and Pd are found to inhibit the reaction while Ir, OS and Ru act as promotors. The presence of metal oxides
