The catalyst composition has been prepared by a preparation process comprising the steps of: impregnating a support material comprising alumina with a solution comprising water and dissolved ammonium thiocyanate; heating the material obtained undermore »« less
Ternary PtRuPd/C catalyst for high-performance, low-temperature direct dimethyl ether fuel cells

Journal Article Dumont, Joseph; Martinez, Ulises; Chung, Hoon; ... - ChemElectroChem

Here, dimethyl ether (DME) is a promising alternative fuel option for direct-feed low-temperature fuel cells. Until recently, DME had not received the same attention as alcohol fuels, such as methanol or ethanol, despite its notable advantages. These advantages include a high theoretical open-cell voltage (1.18 V at 25 °C) that is similar to that of methanol (1.21 V), much lower toxicity than methanol, and no need for the carbon–carbon bond scission that is needed in ethanol oxidation. DME is biodegradable, has a higher energy content than methanol (8.2 vs. 6.1 kWh kg^–1), and, like methanol, can be synthesized from recycledmore »« less
