Electrochemical studies of Pd-based anode catalysts in alkaline medium for direct glycerol fuel cells. Catalysts ,10(9),968,1-112073-4344http://hdl.handle.net/10566/5513his study investigates the most effective electrocatalyst for glycerol oxidation reaction (GOR) in alkaline medium for five synthesized electrocatalysts, Pd, PdNi, PdNiO, PdMn3O4 and PdMn3O4NiO, supported on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) prepared using the polyol method. The particle size and crystalline size of the electrocatalysts were determined using HR-TEM and XRD techniques, respectively, while EDS was used to determine the elemental composition. XRD showed crystalline sizes ranging from 3.4 to 10.1 nm, while HR-TEM revealed particle sizes within the range of 3.4 and 7.2 nm.enGlycerol oxidationElectrocatalystsMulti-walled carbon nanotubesMetal oxidesElectrochemical studies of Pd-based anode catalysts in alkaline medium for direct glycerol fuel cellsArticle
