Abstract

Platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) were grown directly on multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) using a wet chemical reduction process. Gas permeable Pt NP-supported MWNT (Pt/MWNT) electrodes were then formed on microporous PTFE membranes through the vacuum-filtration of a Pt/MWNT solution. The potential use of these electrodes in amperometric hydrogen sensor applications was assessed. Various material analysis methods such as SEM, TEM and XRD were employed in order to characterize the morphologies and microstructures of the Pt/MWNT nanocomposites. The electrodes exhibited a nanoporous interwoven surface morphology as a result of Pt agglomerates attached to the MWNTs. From the XRD and TEM measurements, individual polygonal Pt NPs were confirmed to have polycrystalline face-centered cubic (fcc) structures and very small particle sizes of 2–7 nm. The electrode fabrication process was sequentially optimized by adjusting the MWNT content, H2PtCl6concentration, NaBH4 concentration, and the drying temperature. At optimized conditions, the Pt/MWNT electrode displayed a high sensitivity greater than 200A/ppm, a fairly good selectivity to interfering CO species, and an excellent linear response over the wide concentration range of 5–1000 ppm. Furthermore, the performances of the electrodes were found to be better than those of binary NP-supported MWNT systems (Pt–Pd/MWNT, Pt–Zn/MWNT, Pt–Ni/MWNT and Pt–ZnO/MWNT).
