摘要 Carbon-supportedPdnanoparticleswerepreparedbymicrowaveheating-glycolreductionmethod,andcharacterizedbyawidearrayofexperimentaltechniquesincludingX-raydiffractionspectroscopy(XRD)andtransmissionelectronmicroscopy(TEM).TheelectrooxidationbehaviorsofethanolonthePd/Celectrodeinalkalinemediawereinvestigatedusingcyclicvoltammetry(CV),chronoamperometry(CA),electrochemicalimpedancespectroscopy(EIS)andsinglecellperformancemethods.Pd/Celectrodeforethanoloxidationshowedhighelectro-catalyticactivityandlongtermstability.However,itisobservedthatthecurrentdensitydecreaseswiththeincreasingofthepotentialandnegativeimpedancepresentsinthepotentialfrom-0.1to0.1V.Thedecreasingcurrentdensityandthenegativeimpedancecouldbeduetotheadsorbedintermediatesspeciesthatinhibitedthefurtheroxidationofethanol.BasedonthechemicalreactionanalysisandEISspectra,equivalentcircuitsrelatingtovariouspotentialzoneshavebeenobtained.TheseresultsrevealthedynamicadsorptionofintermediatesspeciesonPdsurfaces.Significantly,itisclarifiedthattheadsorptionbehaviorbeginsfromthemaximumcatalysisofelectro-catalysisandendsintheformationofthepalladium(II)oxidelayerontheelectrodesurface.
