FUEL CELL AND ITS RELATED TECHNOLOGY. III. CORRELATION BETWEEN SURFACE CONDUCTIVITY AND CATALYTIC ACTIVITY OF ELECTRODE

Abstract

The function and specificity of catalysts is briefly discussed. The various methods which are available for the preparation of catalysts are given. Each method offers certain advantages and disadvantages which are mentioned. The methods available for preparing catalysts may be divided into three main categories: precipitation methods, impregnation methods, and vacuum evaporation methods. Two types of impregnation may be carried out. In the first method a carrier is impregnated with a solution, while the second procedure involves impregnation with a vapor. The vacuum evaporation method is normally subdivided into two groups: thin film preparation and filament preparation. (Author)
