dc.description.abstractThe aim of this study was to develop efficient anode materials for direct methanol fuel cell applications. The Ni foam was modified with Bi 2 O 3 - acetylene black-rGO to increase catalytic activity toward methanol oxidation. The Bi 2 O 3 was synthesized via a straightforward green technique. The characterization was achieved by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X -Ray diffraction analysis. The transmission electron microscope and field emission scanning electron microscope was utilized to evaluate the surface properties of catalysts, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy were employed to determine the chemical composition. Bi 2 O 3 particles with diameters ranging from 15 to 75 nm were crystal structures in the (111), (220), (311), and (342) crystal planes. The performance of methanol electrooxidation in an alkaline medium was investigated using cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and chronoamperometry techniques. The surface coverage of the redox species was 2.04 x 10 -5 mol g -1 , and the diffusion coefficient ranged between 8.02 x 10 -12 and 1.25 x 10 -13 cm 2 s - 1 . According to the obtained results, the Bi 2 O 3 - acetylene black-rGO modification enhanced the electrocatalytic activity of Ni foam against methanol oxidation in an alkaline medium.
