The influence of particle size on the reduction of oxygen on supported platinum (Pt) electrocatalysts (Pt on carbon black) in phosphoric acid was investigated. The results confirm earlier evidence that indicates the mass activity (A g-' Pt) and specific activity bA cmm2 Pt) of Pt at 900 mV (us rhe)

An experimental program was conducted to investigate the catalytic activity of platinum black and platinum supported on carbon for the electrochemical reduction of oxygen in 99 wt% phosphoric acid at 177'C as a function of platinum surface area. The activity of platinum was found to approximately do
The kinetics of oxygen reduction at Pt in trifluoromethanesulphonic acid (TFMSA) (0.05-6.0 M) and in 1.0 M TFMSA with addition of small concentrations of phosphoric acid (0.003-0.1 M) was investigated using the rrde technique. In TFMSA, the oxygen reduction current on the oxide-covered Pt was found
The mechanism of the cathodic reduction of oxygen on smooth platinum in 0.5 M H,SO, solution has been studied on the basis of the current efficiency for H,O, formation. H,O, formation occurs at cathode potentials 1680 mV (nhe), whereas the initial rest-potential lies at 960 mV. The current efficien
