▎ 摘  要

A key challenge in developing direct methanol fuel cells is the fabrication of electrocatalysts with high activity and long durability. Herein, we report a performance enhanced electrocatalyst of nanoscale Pd on MXene (Ti3C2Tx) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO). The mass activity of Pd/Ti3C2Tx-rGO (1: 1) hybrid toward methanol oxidation reaction is 753 mA mg(-1), which is 1.7 times than that of Pd/C (446 mA mg(-1)). Additionally, the current density of Pd/Ti3C2Tx-rGO (1:1) catalyst contains 212 mAmg(-1) which is nine times higher than that of Pd/C (23 mA mg(-1)) after 7200 s. The Pd/Ti3C2Tx-rGO (1:1) catalyst exhibits excellent cycling stability and long-term life. These remarkable catalytic performances are attributed to the role of Ti3C2Tx and rGO in enhancing the catalytic activity surface area and rapid mass/charge transfer due to the synergistic effect between Pd and Ti3C2Tx/rGO.
