  • Novel method for fast characterization of high-surface-area electrocatalytic materials using a carbon fiber microelectrode
    Strmčnik, Dušan ...
    A carbon fiber microelectrode (CFME) was used for characterization of the nanoparticle catalysts as an alternative to the well-established rotating diskelectrode (RDE) method. We found that the novel ... CFME method yielded comparable results to the RDE method when investigating the adsorption/desorption processes as well the specific activity for reactions such as the oxygen reduction reaction. Its major advantage over the RDE methodis a fast sample preparation and rapid measurement, reducing significantly the time of a single sample characterization from 2-3 h to a favorable 5-10 min.
