Carbon Supports for Oxygen Reduction Catalysts
TL;DR: In this paper, a method of making a electrocatalyst from waste tires was proposed, which comprises the steps of providing rubber pieces; optionally contacting the rubber pieces with a sulfonation bath to produce sulfonated rubber; pyrolyzing the rubber to produce tire-derived carbon composite comprising carbon black; activating the tire derived carbon composite by contacting the carbon composite with an alkali anion compound; and loading the activated carbon-based supports with platinum cubes.
