Controllable preparation of Co-Fe-Pd nanoparticles and their catalytic activities toward oxygen reduction
and ethanol was used as accelerator. Ultrasonic-assisted preparation of Co-Fe-Pd metal nanoparticles was carried out
and the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) electrocatalytic performance was evaluated. The results show that the average size of Co-Fe-Pd nanoparticles prepared by ultrasonic method is about 3—5 nm
and only Pd diffraction peaks are detected for the Co-Pd,Fe-Pd and Co-Fe-Pd nanoparticles because of the dissolution of Co and Fe into the Pd lattice. Compared to Co
Co-Fe Fe-Pd and Co-Pd nanoparticles
the lattice contraction of Co-Fe-Pd nanoparticles exhibited as the wide peaks is remarkable
which leads to increasing lattice defects and subsequent enhanced catalytic activities. The onset potential of oxygen reduction and the slop of Tafel for the Co-Fe-Pd nanoparticles are 1.03 V(
vs
RHE) and -87 mV/dec
respectively. The values obtained here are comparable to those of commercial Pt/C catalyst. The transferred electron-number of Co-Fe-Pd nanoparticles is 3.80±0.04 during the oxygen reduction
which is dominated by a four-electron pathway. Furthermore
