Key Points

  • The aim is to explore how different gadolinium precursors affect the synthesis and performance of Pt-based electrocatalysts.
  • Template-assisted synthesis used to create Pt-based catalysts with a porous structure.
  • Systematic investigation of various gadolinium precursors on catalyst performance.
  • Characterization of electrocatalysts using WAXTS-DSE techniques to assess active area.
  • Gadolinium precursors significantly influence the structural properties of Pt/Gd catalysts.
  • Enhanced ORR (oxygen reduction reaction) activity observed in catalysts with optimized porous structures.
  • Identification of the active area correlates with improved electrochemical performance.

Abstract

This paper reports on the template-assisted synthesis of Pt-based catalysts featuring a porous structure. The influence of various gadolinium precursors on the synthesis of Pt-Gd oxide catalysts is systematically investigated,...
