Abstract

Abstract: The electrocatalytic activity of the Pd anodic catalyst in direct formic acid fuel cell(DFAFC) for the formic acid oxidation is excellent, while its electrocatalytic satability is poor. The reason and mechanism of the excellent electrocatalytic activity and the poor electrocatalytic stability of the Pd/C catalyst have become an important investigation area of the anodic Pd catalyst in DFAFC. This paper mainly summarizes the situation of research and development of anodic Pd catalyst and Pd\|based composite catalysts in DFAFC. The advantages and disadvantages of the Pd catalyst, the mechanisms of the poor electrocataltic stability of the Pd catalyst, the methods and the mechanism of the increase in the electrocataltic stability of the Pd catalyst are reviewed.

Key words: Direct formic acid fuel cell, Formic acid oxidation, Pd catalyst, Electrocatalytic performance
