الوصف: This paper describes an experimental evaluation and comparison of Pt/C and Pt-Ru/C electrocatalysts for high-temperature (100–160 °C) electrochemical hydrogen separators, for the purpose of mitigating CO poisoning. The performances of both Pt/C and Pt-Ru/C (Pt:Ru atomic ratio 1:1) were investigated and compared under pure hydrogen and a H2/CO gas mixture at various temperatures. The electrochemically active surface area (ECSA), determined from cyclic voltammetry, was used as the basis for a method to evaluate the performances of the two catalysts. Both CO stripping and the underpotential deposition of hydrogen were used to evaluate the electrochemical surface area. When the H2/CO gas mixture was used, there was a complex overlap of mechanisms, and therefore CO peak could not be used to evaluate the ECSA. Hence, the hydrogen peaks that resulted after the CO was removed from the Pt surface were used to evaluate the active surface area instead of the CO peaks. Results revealed that Pt-Ru/C was more tolerant to CO, since the overlapping reaction mechanism between H2 and CO was suppressed when Ru was introduced to the catalyst. SEM images of the catalysts before and after heat treatment indicated that particle agglomeration occurs upon exposure to high temperatures (>100 °C)
