Chemistry is an experimental science, and the best way to enjoy it and learn about it is performing experiments.Introducing a new discovery about 10049-08-8, Name is Ruthenium(III) chloride, Recommanded Product: Ruthenium(III) chloride.
A well-crystallized mesoporous hydrous ruthenium dioxide (RuO xHy) with high surface area of 120 m2 g -1 and high electrochemical catalytic activity has been synthesized by a replicating route with the mesoporous silica (KIT-6) as hard template. The materials were characterized by means of thermo-gravimetric analysis (TG), X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and N2 sorption. The electrocatalytic activity of the samples for methanol oxidation were investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and linear scan voltammetry (LSV) techniques. A mixed gas of CO and O2 was adopted to investigate the effect of gas treatment on the electrochemical activity of the samples. The results show that the electrocatalytic activity of the prepared mesoporous RuOxHy and 3 wt% Pt/mesoporous RuOxH y toward methanol oxidation was much enhanced after treatment with a mixed gas of CO and O2. The enhanced electrochemical catalytic activity of the materials might be attributed to the structure activation during the gas treatment and the high surface area of RuOxHy matrix with mesoporous structure.
