title = "Development of stable Pt-Co cathode catalysts for PEM fuel cells",
abstract = "A new procedure was developed to synthesize a platinum-cobalt (Pt-Co) alloy catalyst for oxygen reduction using Co/C composite as a support. The Co/C composite was synthesized using a chelation approach and treated in an acidic solution to remove excess of Co. Nano-sized Pt was deposited onto the Co/C support, followed by a heat-treatment to form Pt-Co alloy. The Pt-Co/C catalyst showed improved activity and long-term stability in PEM fuel cells when compared with a conventional Pt-Co/C. Durability studies and electron probe microanalysis indicated that the Co content in the alloy remains stable without poisoning the electrolyte membrane during long-term operation.",
